SHIP BOARD RAPS
RAIL RATE CUT PLEA
Declares Effort to Reduce
Freight Charges Will Hurt
Panama Lines.

Granting by the Interstate Com
merce Commission of applications by
certain railroads for lower trans
continental rates was protested yes
terday by the Shipping Board in a
resolution adopted by the board. on
the ground that 1t would divert to
the roads shipments now carried by
water carriers through the Panama
canal.
The applications referred to. which
have been made by railroads engaged
! in transcontinental transportation
| would. if granted. allow the roads
concerned to proceed toward lower
ing rail rates to meet Panama COM
petition. but would not of themselves
authorize such decreases without fur
ther action by the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
The board in it's resolution held
that the request for lower rail rates
was made I'm contemplation that ii
will drive the ocean carriers from
this competitive trade"
Cite "Grent BENEFIT"
Ship lines now engaged in the in
tercoastal service, the resolution said
have been established as competi-
tive artery of transportation for COM
; modlties moving between the Atlantic
and Pacific seaboards, resulting ir
development of a large volume OF
commerce, which has been "of great
benefit to the producing. consuming
and manufacturing portions of our
! population"
Any destruction of this favorable
and economical competitive trans.
portation," 1t was contended. would
be Injurious to the public interests
The fourth section of the interstate
commerce act declares illegal any
railroad rates which are less for long
distances than existing like rates
! over the same roads which apply &c
shorter distances. The commerce
! commission is given specific power In
special cases to set aside this section
known as the long-and- short haul
clause. and the railroads are asking
it to exercise that power in the pend
ing applications.
No action has as yet been taken by
the commiSsio upon the applica-
tions, except to set them for hearings
and consideration.

SAVED $4,000 ON PEARLS S.

The absence of a bit Of string once
saved an American importer $4,000
In customs duty. The importer had
been buying single pearls in the for
eign markets. Pearl after pearl
passed the customs officials, until
they began to note that the gems
were all of the same grade and would
make a very nicely matched strand
of fine pearls. This was q significant
| observation, because pearls unstrung
are precious stones. dutiable at 10
per cent, while a string of pearls Is
jewelry, and Jewelry is dutiable at 80
per cent
The customs officials declared that
the pearls were a matched and graded
strand, string or no string, and 1t
was held that the business man owed
| the government $4,000. The Su-
preme Court thought differently, how
ever, and the government got only
$4,000

BIZ Times Special
EEW YORK, July 12.-It's a
IN far cry from the hot jungles
81 of Central Panama to the
comforts and conveniences of a big
New York City hotel. but Marguer-
lite Berry, 14-year-old white In
dian" girl, has made the Journey
and is learning fast.
Marguerite Berry-they call her
that because nobody here can pro
nounce her Indian name-may be
a member of a lost race. but she
has all the instincts of a flapper
just the same.
Already Marguerite is sporting
a vanity case and a green parasol,
is all dolled up in a white organdie
dress and has bobbed her hair.
She's been in New York only a
week and--well. she's probably for
gotten all about the jungles Of
Panama by now
For Marguerite, when in doubt
or excited. merely opens her van
ity case and powders her nose.
But there's one thing she can't
do. She can't mascara her eye
brows and lashes. For. you see.
both are pure white, and who
would ever think Of putting mas
cara on white eyebrows? Now,
IL they only had some white mas
cara
Richard o. Marsh. an explorer
who brought Marguerite and her
brothers to this country-Alo. Is.
and Chepu, 10-plans TO educate
them here and AmericanlZe them.
Later they may return 10 their
native jungles TO teach their kin
folk civilized ways.
The three children have white
skins. yellow hair, hazel eyes and
white eyelashes, all of which leads
Marsh to claim that he has dis
covered a distinct Nordie type OF
Indian. Strangely enough--and
apparently in living contradiction
to this CLAIMS the fact that their
parents, who were brought here
with them, have copper colored
skins. straight black hair and
other Indian characteristics.
Passengers who arrived on the
same steamer from Panama claim
that the little Indians are merely
albinos. or freaks. and do not
represent a different racial strain.
Cynical travellers say the jungles
are full of them.
But the true albino. Marsh ar
CUES, has pink eyes. blue gums
and utterly colorless white hair
and skin. Furthermore. he insists,
these little Indians have pigment
in their hair. which is not pure
white, and pigment in their skins.
If they constitute a type Of albipo,
he says, 1t is a type without known
precedent
This matter he is leaving to vari-
Gus scientists who are examining
the children at their hotel here in
an effort to solve the riddle.
