u those of the Older Generation who be-
ieve that the young people of today are in
the grip of some strange and deadly mania.

just what ails young people and what doesn't
all them. believe that the only thing that is
gripping young people today is the same thing
that has always gripped young people

have been recovered, according to
the testimony of art experts attached

sion today by Congressman James
Nd. Mead Democrat) of New York.
In a letter to the commission
asking 1t to give the matter fur
ther consideration, Congressman
Mead said that in his Judgment,
the placing of the entire re.
sponsibility on the engineer, there
by absolving the company from all
liability Is a wrong conclusion as
well as an injustice to Mr.. Patter-
son (the engineer)."
Railroad Scored.
From the evidence submitted, I"
said Mead. "and from the expert.
ence not alone in this wreck, but
in other wrecks, it can be easily
seen that the railroad officials are
entirely to blame for, first, non.
enforcement of a rule compelling
trains to either come to a stop or
to reduce speed to a specific rate
at caution blocks, and, secondly.
for the discipline meted out to the
engineers on fast trains for fail
ure to make time and keep up In
mat way the unreasonable snaed
mania which is directly responsible
for many accidents on our railroa ds.
THE failure of the railroads to
equip their trains with automatic
control devices as ordered by the
commission, together with the mad
desire for speed is unquestionably
one OF the prime causes for such dis.
aster as this on the Twentieth Cen
tury Limited and the wreck of the
Pennsylvania's "18-hour train" near
Pittsburgh some years ago. Your
commission. will recall that the
Pennsylvania abandoned that "18.
hour train" shortly after that acci-
dent"
Report Blames Engineer.
In the commissions report on the
FOrsythe wreck, submitted by w.
p. Borland, director of the bureau
Of safety, It was held that this
accident was caused by the failure
Of Engineer Patterson of the fourth
section of the train, properly to
observe and obey automatic block
signal indications"
The report also said that during
the investigation of the wreck that
evidence was presented to the ef-
feet that enginernen at times con-
tinue to run at full speed under
caution signal indications. This
practice is not considered safe un.
less and until automatic train con-
troll devices are placed in service
to enforce the observation Of stop
signal indications. The railroad
company should as an additional
safeguard revise its rules so as to
require trains being operated at
high speed to have their speed re-
duced to a prescribed medium rate
when a caution signal is received
and to approach the next signal
prepared to stop"

Cong. Cramton Cites Number
of Ways Fraud Is
Practiced.

Congressman Louis C. Cramton OF
Michigan today introduced in the
House a bill to prevent fraud and
improper practice in connection with
business before the Patent Office.
In introducing the measure ne
made the following statement:
In Washington and a number OF
other places throughout the coun-

porations are acting as patent at
torneys and inducing clients to In

registered to practice.
Practice Under Cover.
"In' several instances attorneys
have been disbarred from pracuce
and are now practicing from under
cover. In other instances men VINO
never have been registered and
who are not entitled to be registered
are representing themselves as
patent attorneys and taking fees as
such.
"In fragrant instance two men not
registered represented themselves to
be patent councillors and even did
business under false names.

zone of my own constituents was
led to pay $500 to an association
which was not registered to prac-
tice and had no right to practice.
In that case the one who acted as
attorney disclaimed all responsi'
bility and the applicant could not
obtain the service to which he was
entitled until the Commissioner OF
Patents forced the attorney to COM
plete his work"

HUSBAND HELD TO RULE
WHO SHALL ENTER HOME

PoTTSvILLE, Pa, Jan. 21.-The
question of whether a husband can
prevent his wife from having Wis
itors In the family Ghome who are
personally distasteful to him was de.
bated before Alderman James Hep
stine here. After hearing the argu.
ments Of attorneys, the alderman de-
cided that the husband is the head
OF the family and has the right to
say who shall or shall not cross the
threshold.
he therefore held Charles Little. of
Paio AIto. under bail on the charge
OF trespassing.
The evidence showed Little WAS a
visitor to the home Of James A
Wood, the prosecutor; that he was
an acquaintance of the whole family
and was invited to enter by Mrs.
