RAIL OPERATING
RETURNS LOWER
Gross Revenues and Expenses
Show Decrease AS Compared
to Year Before

ATLANTA, September 81. -
Here are some facts about the rail-
roads, according to figures made
public here today, which are not
generally known-to the effect that
the railroads are not as prosperous
as it might appear.
In word the rail operating re-
turns of the railroads last year
were below those of 1923, that is
on class railroads. Furthermore
there was a decrease of 6 per cent
in the total freight earnings last
year as compared to 1928. Gross
revenues and expenses last year
both show decreases as compared
to the year before.
Glass l railroads representing a
total mileage of 236,19O had a net
operating income in 1924 of $685.
1860, or a return of ABS pei
cent of their property investment
according to reports filed by the
railroads with the government. II
1928 their rate of return was 4.4s

RADIO UNITES
FATHER AND SON
Hopes to Make Great Musician
of Son He Deserted When
Baby

OMAHA. Mob, Sept. 21.-On the
mysterious waves of the air comes
the deep bass voice of the radio
announcer:
This is station xxx, Hastings
Nebraska. The next selection will
De violin duet by the William and
Edward thinner, father and SON."
And then comes a plaintive mel
ody from two violins.
But even the radio, marvellous
as it is in enabling people to hear
beautiful music of hundreds Of
miles away, fails completely To
tell the story behind the harmony
of these two violins.
STORY RIVALS FICTION
For it is a story of love, heart
aches, anger and happiness, such
as is usually found only in fiction,
It's story of real life written in
bitter and happy experiences of
20 years.
At the age of 10, William Zim-
mer, a violinist educated in Berlin
fell in love with a 16-yer-old girl
in New York City. After a hasty
courtship they were married and
Doth were very happy.
A baby was born.
When the baby was nine month,
old, thinner went on the roac
with one of the Shubert companies
playing ''The Merry Widow" anc
failed to return to his wife ant
baby.
Mrs. Zimmers obtained a divorc,
and married wealthy cotton bro
ker named Mack, with whom sh,
lived happily.
Her little son never knew hi
father, but as he grew older h
was told about him and went b,
the name of Edward thinner.
Like his father, the boy soon dis
played real musical talent. TIL
mother did everything possible t
develop the sons musical edu
cation.
The family moved to st. Loui
and Edward made his debut owe
radio at Hastings.
But due to adverse business con
ditions, the Mack fortune wa
swept away. This sudden chang
meant an end to Edwards musica
education, the mother realized, ur
less in some way the boys fathe
would help.
The radio had revealed that tn
father was living at Hastings, an
che mother decided on an unusus
plan in her efforts to make tn
boy a real musician.
TO FATHER INCOGNITO
Under the name of Mack sh
sent him to Hastings to take violi
lessons under his father.
At first Edward proteste
against the idea, saying he didn
care to know a father who had d.
serted him as baby and had neve
shown any interest in him.
The rest of the story is told b
the father "He had been takin
music lessons of me for sewers
weeks, and I hadn't recognize
him." said thinner.
"You see, hadn't even seen hi

When Mrs. Victor Style, of Ell
Paso, left her three-year-old son,
Juan, at home alone while she was
at work downtown, the chickens
picked his face as he was playing
in the yard. So the mother de-
cided the things to do was to lock
the child instead of the chickens in
chicken coop. Neighbors became
so indignant that one of them offer
ed to adopt the child. City health
officers obtains the mothers con-
sent to an adoption.
