message to Congress recommending
that immediate action be taken by

Representation at r. X.
Rate Case Hearings

Charles e. Gurney. Chairman Of the
Maine public utilities commission and
Frank J.. McArdle, chief Of the rate
division of the department, will leave
today for Washington, d. c., to rep
present the commission as observers
at the hearing on the eastern rail-
roads rate case before the interstate
commerce commission.
This hearing involves the railroads
in the central freight territory, the
trunk line territory and New Eng
land, or the railroads operating in
that section of the country extending
in that section east Of. the Mississippi
river to the Atlantic. The investiga-
ton now being conducted in which
the various state commissions are
concerned, involves the elimination Of
certain rate violations under the
fourth section Of the interstate COM
merce commission act. 1t also has
to do with the proposals of the Varl-
Gus railroads to increase the present
existing freight rates.
The proposals of the New England
roads-especially that Of the Maine
Central ailroad-appear to be radical
changes or increases insofar as Maine
is concerned.
Hearing on the New England rail-
road proposition will start in WASH
ington on February 10 and will con-
sumo about a week. After the rail-
roads have completed their evidence
a recess of few weeks will be taken
in order to allow the various shipping
interests to present their side of the
case before the same tribunal.

States Increase
Insurance Burdens

Washington. Feb. 16.-Policyholders
of the State of Maine paid in insur-
ance licenses, taxes and fees for the
year 1928, S363,91S.76 of which
amount $12,127.O3 was used for the
expenses of the State insurance de-
partment, according to bulletin is
sued by the Insurance Department OF
the Chamber of Commerce OF the
United States. The remainder Of the
amount collected in the form of insur-
ance taxes went into the general state
funds.
The practice of making the policy
holder bear the burden of taxes, the
greater proportion of which are ex-
pended for general purposes. is grow
ing among the states. The federal
government abolished the tax on in
sura,Ae premiums, which was devised
as an emergency war measure, in 1921.
But the trend in the states has been
in the contrary direction.
'"rhe upward trend of state taxa
tion is clearly seen by Il comparison or
1928 statistics with those from the
years 1915 to 1922" says the 1nsur-
ance Department in it's bulletin. The
total of licenses, taxes and ices col
lected in 1928, $59.24S,527 is great
er by $6,726, ,05211 than the sum col
lected in the same states in 1922. The
increase was practically universal
among the states, since 40 out of Al
jurisdictions reporting received more
in 1928 than in the previous year. On
the contrary, the expenditures for in
surance department service during the
same period decreased in % states and
the District Of Columbia"
For the year 1928 of the total
amount collected by all the states in
the form of special insurance, 96.1l
per cent were used for other state
purposes than the maintenance of the
insurance departments.

Amazing Spectacle in "Hagdad'
Film

Douglass Fairbanks. in the most
amazing and spectacular screen pro-
duction yet known TO the, world,
ut the Colonial Theatre today and
Wednesday. So much has been
written of the astonishing and
astounding occurrences depicted in
this picture, that perhaps not
enough has been written about the
charmingly romantic love story of
the Thief and the Princess. 1t is
said that the famous Doug has
never made love more ardently
than in the scenes with the Princess.
Having first climbed UP the Magic
Rope to reach the Harem and,
chastened by love. he reveals to her
the fact that he is in reality an i'm
poster: Julanne Johnston, who i'm
personates the Princess. is one Of
the most beautiful leading women
MIR. Fairbanks has played opposite
to in his long career as a screen star.
She brings to the role added grace
and charm, gained through her ex-
perience as one of the famous Nor
gan Dancers. Some of the out
standing features are the Magic
Carpet, on which the Thief and the
Princess soar over the houSetops
and into the sky: The Winged
Horse, mounted on which the Thief
dashes into and through the clouds;
The Miraculous Seed which, when
thrown on the ground, creates a
huge army from nothingness; The
Forest of Enchanted Trees; the
Cloak of Invisibility. which the Thief
uses to cover himself and the
Princess so that they may escape
the soldiers of the Mongol Prince:
and yet aside from all these Won
ders, which no one would heretofore
have thought possible on the screen,
there will be found the living dragon
in the Marvellous Valley of Mon
sters, The Crystal Realm beneath the
sea, the flight of the Thousand Stairs,
and the astonishing Cavern OF Fire.
