gigantic deficit. which now virtually

Part of Carnes' agreement to

League of Nations Body
Hopes for Eradication
by Next Year.

PARIS, Dec. 23.-The year 1880
may see the last vestige of slavery
or forced labor wiped off the earth.
With the opening of the new
year a commission of three mem
bers, accompanied by many assist
ants, will leave Paris for the Re-
public of Liberia on the west coast
of Africa to decide whether slavery
or forced labor still exists there.
The investigation was demanded
of the League of Nations by Liberia
after disparaging comment from
other nations that slavery still was
rampant in that republic. The
United States has one. member on
the commission, the League one,
while Liberia has appointed the

sulting from skidding cars and re-
moval of barracades when police
officers are not on guard at the
intersection where the street is
blocked. The board also received
several complaints because principal
streets had been turned over to
coasters. Lieutenant Owen believes
that the children should be pro-
vided with ample coasting facilities
to keep them out of unguarded
streets, and he warned all children
to stay out of the streets" citing
danger from autos and reckless
drivers.
In a survey Saturday Owen
found no youngsters using the
streets but hundreds enjoying
themselves with sleds in city parks.
Permission to use the recreation
department barricades was offered
the police department If Owen
would assume all responsibility,
hall the barriers and place red Ian
terms on them.

MERCER SCORED
FOR INEQUALITY
Primary Principles of Rate
Territory DiSregarded,
Says Expert.
Tinted Press

BB United Press
NEWTON, Mass, Dec. 23.-Pro-
lessor william 2. Ripley Of Harvard
university criticised the interstate
commerce commissions railroad
merger plan and charged the COM
mission with lack of diplomacy in
a statement at his home here.
In general, Ripley declared the
plan failed to create substantial
equals which could compete with
each other effectively, and the car
dinal principles" of combining each
system TO a definite rate territory.
Professor Ripley, leading
authority on railroads, was retained
by the I. c. G. and in 1921 drew up
a preliminary consolidation plan
which later was strapped.
Would Be Pygmy
With reference to the former, the
Harvard professor declared that ''it
is tnconceiyable for instance, that
the Wabash, which is a string line
anyway, with nothing but trackage
rights east of Detroit, by being
pieced together with the Chesapeake
81 Ohio of Indiana line, itself sub
normal, and even with the prosper
ous Lehigh valleye into New York,
could be bhilt into anything like an
eyen-handed competitor with the
powerful Pennsylvania, New York
Central, Baltimore & Ohio and Van
Sweringen system. II would be a
pygmy among giants"
The principle of combining each
system to a definite rate territory
seems to be substantially dis
regarded in the plan" Ripley said.
New England roads are projected
INTO trunk line territory. The Illi-
noiS Central Is extended far to the
north and into the southwest. The
Burlington reaches from Canada to
Mexico. Mobile 81 Ohio way down
by the gulf is tied in with the Chi
cago g. Northwestern.
Disregard Boundaries
"And so it goes, disregarding the
boundaries which with more and
more distinctneSs have been set to
these rate adjustment territories"
Past decisions of the commission
have in practice tied its hands, Rip
ley felt. Thus, the Union Pacific
was thwarted in it's desire to get the
Central Pacific, which gives it
line from Salt Lake City into San
Francisco. This one denial in its
ramificationS stands in the way of
any statesmanlike plan for even
handed competition between sys-
TENS each of which operates straight
through from Chicago to the coast.

Lieutenant Frank Owen, head of

Thursday in an effort to obtain
modification of the order banning
barricades in streets for winter

The board refused to authorize
Recreation Director Jesse P. Nc
Clure to designate certain streets
for children to coast this year be-
cause of the hazards. John E. Mil
nor and Michael E. Foley, park
commissioners, expressed the view
that the practice is dangerous and
the city would be liable in event of
an accident.
Foley said there was danger re-

slavery or enforced labor. which is
known to exist still IN certain colo
MES of Africa.
The United States, which early
ratified the convention and has been
one of the prime movers in its en-
forcement, has taken such an in
terest in the commissions work that
it recently appointed Henry Carter
Of the state department to become
charge daffaires ad interim at Mon
rovia, Liberia, to observe and assist
the work of the international slav-
cry commission.
The league hopes that the work of
the commission can be started soon
after the first of the year and fin
ished before June 80 in order that
report can be made during the
summer to the league. 1t appears
that Liberia is Withholding her
ratification of the convention until
the investigation has been COM
pleted.

have thought it rather homelike
Mrs. Hoover is a charming hostess
and a man who has known her all
her life said she would prove to be
the best hostess the White House
ever had.
Well, we had this fine dinner and
then were taken to the movies
Just upstairs in the White House
and while waiting for the perform
ance, coffee was served demi-tasse,
no coffee having been served at
the dinner. After this up-to-the
minute program the ladies went
with Mrs. Hoover into her room
and the men went with the presi-
dent into his upstairs work room
and smoked and chatted informally
until about midnight.
How to get away from the White
House was quite a problem. One
of the guests saw the lateness of
hour and asked another if it was
not time to be evaporating. He
was informed that nothing like
that could happen until the presi-
dent took it into his head to lead
the way. So it remained for big,
good, brave Scotch Alex Legge to
go over and tell the president it
was time for him to extricate the
farmers as they were getting sleepy
and it was only a moment until the
procession started homeward and
very pleasant evening with the
Hoovers was at an end.
Well, the farm board sure got in
some good ticks the first week. It
had not been in session "a hours
until wheat went up &c per bushel,
and that helps some. The next day
we got wire from the Western
Texas Cattle Mems association
thanking the board for much
needed rain in that part of the
country!
I have noticed down here we have
to dress for everything and never
undress. People just naturally
don't know enough to go to bed
nights but insist on doing their Wis

ought to be in bed.
