PLAN UP TO SOCIALIZE
RAILROADS IN SWEDEN
Government Faction Committee
Proposes Their Operation as an
Independent Business Body.
BY tho Associated Pres 5

BY tho Associated Press
STOCKHOLM, June 30.-The sociaiiz-
ing of all Swedish government railroads.
and their operation as an independent
business corporation, has been planned
by the government specialization commit
Tee IN VolumInous report just published
which is arouSing natiou-w wide discus
sion.
The committee recommends that the
roads continue to be owned by the g pv-
eminent, which is to supply the working
capital and to reserve, the right of in
spection, but that the actual business
BE- continued in general as 1t is done by
private corporations. Thus the wages
and salaries of employees would no longer
be decreed by the government, but
would be agreed upon after bargaining
by both sides. The workmen would.
naturally, have the right to strike. The
program under the new scheme would
be to conduct only such traffic as proves
financially profitable, while at the same
time only the covering of costs will be
aimed at instead of high profits.
The administration of the railroads
under the new plan is to be done partly
by an assembly of twenty mine members
and partly by board of seven directors.
Nine members of the assembly are to
be chosen by the government. eight by
the RikSdag. six by the employees and six
by various outside corporations which
represent public traffic interests. This
assembly would elect the board Of d
rectors. which make all decisions re-
garding wages and tariffs. The assembly
is to have full charge of the investment
of funds, distribution of profits, pur
chase or sale of railroad property, etc.

 DROPS DAMAGE SUIT

 Agreement

 mans Widow Withdrawn

Pending legal action to recover all legged damages to the sum of Sio,000 from Mrs. Honorius Magnan, widow of the late Alderman, was abruptly concluded Monday, when announce ment was made that Mrs. Remi De- lage, widow of the late police captain of Putnam, had withdrawn her inten- tion to bring suit and had agreed to a settlement that was arranged between the principals and their attorneys and lawyers for Che insurance company that carried the libaility policy in the name of the late Mir. Magnan.
 The husbands of both women were fatally injured at Oxford shortly after midnight on the morning of May ,. 1923, when the automobile they were riding in. the property of Magnan, crashed into the stone abutment of railroad bridge. Magnan was all most instantly killed and Deiage died short time afterward in a Worcester hospital. They were on their way home from Worcester, to which place they had gone after Magnan had at tended the regular monthly meeting of the common council.
 Doubt as to who was driving the car at the time of the crash existed until the coroner who conducted the inquest gave it as his official opinion that Magnan was at the wheel De. lage Is known to have driven the Mag nan car prior to the evening of the accident and was thoroughly familiar with it's operation.
 Upon the filing of this opinion. ne- gotiations were commenced to recover compensation for Mrs. Delage be- cause of the death of her husband while riding in his friends car.

ZINC SEPARATE CAUSES DEATH

Report of the death of seven months old baby was received re- gently, in which the cause of death was given as e.inhalation of stearate of zinc powder" Anote was append ed "ehild playing with eontainer."
 Stearate of zinc is in general use as a dusting powder for infants, and mothers and nurses sometimes allow babies to play with the can to keep them amused. The powder is danger ous because when breathed into the bronchial tubes and lungs it adheres to them and causes an inflammation which may result in bronchitis and pneumonia.
 Mothers and nurses should keep such cans out of reach of young child rem.

girls have regulars and get along well.
ROY H.
Oh, yes, there are few advantages
about having a steady" but most of
the advantages are on the mans
side. He knows that the girl is wal
ing for him. When he tires Of her,
he can cast her aside and flnd some
one more to his taste.
The girl, however, does not have
such an easy time. She probably has
refused attentions of other men-or
has not been offered them because
she was monopolized by her steady
and they are not going to be wait
ing to take her up when her steady"
tires Of her.
And so, the advantage Of knowing
that she will get to go to certain ar
fairs is offset by the disadvantage of
not knowing when she may be left out

cally all the privileges Of a fiance,
