BILLIONS HANG
IN BALANCE IN
RAILWAY CASE
U. S. Economic Keystone Is
Threatened by Suit in
Supreme Court.
BY HERBERT LITTLE,
limited Press stan CorreSpondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE gov
ernment's new railroad regulation
policy, keystone of the nations eco
nomic structure, goes on trial here
probably late today, when the Unit
ed States supreme court hears argu-
ments on the attempt of railroads
to oyerturn the Insterstate Com
merce Commissions valuation sys-
tenn.
This billion-dollar valuation case,
appealed by the little nine-mile st.
Louis 81 O'Fallon road and the
short Manufacturers railway, both
owned by the Adolphus Busch estate
of st. Louis, was second on the
courts call when it returned from
the holiday vacation today.
The public, the railroads, the COM
mission and the government, all IN
tereSted and all represented by ma
tionally known lawyers, make the
legal battle a four sided one. The
one central question of predominant
importance is:
Can the railroads in this case get
the court to rule that valuations
for Alternating and recapture pur-
poses must be based on present
reprcduction costs" instead OF the
commissions present method OF
stalking all factor" especially the
1914 reproduction cost, into consid-
Grafton?
Attack Valuation Validity
The commissions valuation of the
OFallon road at approximately
$3.50 900 was used as the basis for an
order to pay the commission $225,0OO
of excess earnings under the pro-
vision Of section 15-A OF the 192O
transportation act.
The roads attacked validity OF the
valuation, claiming a value OF at
least 81, $4,000 in the period l92O-z4
covered by the recapture order, ana
also challenged many technical
phases of the recapture, In seeking
an i-junction overturnng the order:
A three Judge federal court IN st.
Louis rejected all their pleas ana
refused to discuss the merits OF the
commissions valuation, ruling that
the roads failed to show any proof
of confiscation by the government:
Now the railroads face two dill
cult obstacles, to get the supreme
court to take up the question OF
valuation and to get the commits
sion,s valuation held illegal. the
court probably will give two days 10
arguments.
Refuses to Consider Matter
The supreme court in the last
three wears has refused twice to go
into the merits of valuation IN rail-
road cases.
The commission uses the same
valuations for recapture and rate
making calculations. Hence there IS
a possibly III this case of an ac-
ceptance of the railroads proposals
.forY s'present reproduction value"
which would, if made effective, in
crease the present aggregate valua-
lions of the nations railroads by ten
to twenty billion dollars.
The present valuations in use by
the commission aggregate around
$4,000, 600. The law provides for rates
to provide a return of 6 per cent
to the roads, so such increase IN
valuation might raise railroad rates
by a billion dollars year.

Theatregoers acclaimed a ne W screen star at the Coliseum last night when Fannie Brice, most famous eomedienne of the stage made her film debut il My Man, . a special talkie production by War ner Bros.
 For Miss Brlce, heretofore re- garded principally as a portrayer of comedy parts, reveals dramatic talent that is as powerful as it was unsuspected, and discloses the star as player of unusual emotional depth.

 My Man" is a tenderly appeal ing story with much of mirth and a tear or two-and through it's changing moods Fannie moves with an abandon and charm which is peculiarly her own.

Prohibition Chief Says AL aska Is on Par with Re-
 mainder of Country

Prohibition conditions in Alaska are not materially different than elsewhere in the United States, in the opinion of Roy Lyle, Prohibit tion Administrator for the North western District, comprised of Alas ka, Oregon and Washington. He said he found everything, generally speaking, in fair shape in those sections of the Territory he had visited during the past month.
 MT. Lyle and Mrs. Lyle and h. spector Leonard Began passed through Juneau last night on the Steamer Yukon enroute to Seat tie where the district headquarters are located.
 Enforcement in Alaska, and conditions under it, are about on par with the rest of the country. There are some spots not as good as others and, of course, there is room for improvement in all parts of the Territory the same as throughout the nation," MT. Lyle said.
 T have been delighted with my visit and the courtesies shown my self, Mrs. Lyle and MT. Began. It is my intention to return for a longer visit in the not distant fu- ture," he added
 Since leaving here several weeks ago, MT. Lyle and his party have visited many points. Travelling down the Yukon River via Daw- son, they visited Eagle, Circle, Fort Yukon, Rampant, Panama and small Nenana, the Fairbanks district and communities on the Panama River, spent a week end in Nome, flying there from Fairbanks. They re- turned over The Alaska Railroad to Seward and thence here.

LENROOT'S RISE TO JUDICIARY

WASHINGTON, July 10.-The quiet of courtroom life which first knew Irvine Lenroot as an ambi- tious young reporter and later as g lawyer, today is graced by his presence on the bench where he may remain for the rest of his active life.
 The bench of the United States Court of Customs and Patent Ap- peals is the haven to which MT. Lenroot has retreated from the turbulent activity of political Wash ington, in which he figured promi- nently for several years as United States Senator from Wisconsin.
 Only through the favor of two presidents and the persistence of his friends in overriding the opposi- ton to his accession to the bench, however, was Mir Lenroot finally able to don the robes of the Federal judiciary. ia f.t

TOM TACCART7S SON MAY FOLLOW
 FATHER AS FIGURE IN POLITICS

INDIANAPOLIS, July 10.-Anoth- CT Taggart-Thomas D., son of the late Tom-is under consideration for a prominent place in Democrat ic state politics, ruled by his father for so many years.
 Gossip has it that the younger Taggart is slated to succeed Charles A. Greenhouse of Indianapolis as the Indiana member of the Demo- cratic national committee. Great house, it is said, is eager to re- linquish the post.
 Taggart, according to close friends is far more interested in politics than generally believed. For many years he was his fathers confidant in things political, and it was to him the late Samuel M. Ralston in 1924 sent word that he wished his name withdrawn from further consideration by the national con- vention as presidential candidate
 Taggart has attended many na- tional conventions and was dele gate to the Houston meeting.
 He is 40 years old and was gradu- ated from Yale in 1909, Sheffield Scientific school. His hobby has been fine horses and he has a string of runners. Amyvale was en- tered in this years Kentucky derby. Volomite, 2:06 trotter, will race for

 Banking opinion, with some ex- captions, favors the new institution as outlined by the experts commit tee. Comment usually leads to the inevitable question: where will this super-bank and possible capital of world finance be located?
 Two paragraphs in annex I, part XII, of the experts report are re- ceiving special attention. They read:
 The purpose of the bank is to provide additional facilities for the international movement of funds and to afford a ready instrument for promoting international finan- cial relations.

 Rice, after exterminating the bears and wolverines that infested his neighborhood in the Scatter Tract, took out a trapping license. Thus week he shared, or otherwise took into captivity, a live marmot. The Alaska Game Commission, on the lookout for these animals to plant them on Prince of Wales Is- land, bought Georges live trophy, paying him S7.50, thus giving him full reimbursement for his trapper's license fee and a nest egg with which to start a fund to buy more local realestate.
