Brookhart Charges Railroads Plan
 To 0bstruct Waterway Improvement

Washington, Oct. 3 LPITaking is- que with Fred w. Sargent, president Of the Chicago Northwestern Rail Eay company, that the government was drifting toward confiscatlon of inland waterways and public roads, Senator Brookhart, republican, Iowa, today said this statement was tan- tamount to declaration of war by the railroads on the nations wa terway improvement plans.
 Sargent asserted before the Amer ican Bankers association in Cleye- land yesterday that the government s policy of paying the expense of con- structing waterways to be used in competition with railroads out of taxpayers money was contrary to the constitution.
 The people of the west were hap py in the thought that the govern ment had adopted a general policy of improving the inland waterways" Brookhart said. Now the whole policy is threatened by an attack of the railroads
 Foresees Legal War
 This attack" he continued, lis not mere idle vaporings, but the mature thought of the shrewdest lawyers in the country. It means that every legal artifice will be used to stop the improvement of our rivers in competition with the rail- roads"

The government subsidized the railroads, he said. by giving them 15S, ,000,o00 acres of land for con- struction and later again subsidized them when private operation broke down under the World War strain, the railroads padded their expenses, he asserted, to make government operation appear unsuccessful.
 with a record like this" he said, ''it seems strange indeed that MT. Sargent or any railroad man should come forward with an argument against building public roads and waterways as subsidies.'
 Railroads. he said paid only s7 tax on s100 gross income, while farmers in Iowa and other states paid s27 on the hundred" adding that Sargent's argument of the tax burden on railroads was insubstan- tial.

 Their slate was a political mas terpiece.

He did his part we'll When Wicker sham went to Fairbanks he took his candidate for Treasurer with him from Anchorage, sat with him on the stage at the meetings, and ac- cepted his praises along the line of the railroad.

 'Wickersham," he explained, "ob- jected to letting the natural re- sources go into private hands. He demanded they be withdrawn from private appropriation This is some thing have always protested. My opponent protests loudly against bu- reaucracy. But unless the natural resources are turned over to pri- vate individuals or corporations, they must be managed by bureaus We have the choice between bu- reaucracy and private ownership. l am for the latter, but I know very well that public opinion has been so inflamed against industrial in- stitutions by the class of politicians to which my opponent belongs, that there is no immediate hope for change For that reason propose to cooperate with the bureaus to the end that capital may be induced

 Would Develop Resources
 MT. Scott and MT Gardner spoke for the development of the natural resources and showed what the payrolls of the proposed pulp and paper plants would mean to the community.
 We cannot bring capital into the country" said MT. Scott, but we can so legislate as not to drive capital away"
 MT. Gardner charged that the Paul faction has heretofore and now is opposing the pulp and paper development policy of the United States Forest Service, charging it with selling out to the paper trust.
 That faction, he declared, would not hesitate to block this develop ment if it had the power to do so.
 He then cited figures to show how vastly Alaska would benefit from the establishment of the pulp and paper industry. For two mills such as proposed at Juneau and Ketchikan, he estimated, there would be required 750,00O feet b.m. per day of timber The stumpage per day from that quantity would

1000 DUELS ARE FOUGHT
ANNUALLY IN VIENNA
Austrian Students Have Many
Fights at One Time to Save
Cost of Hall.

VIENNA CP).-The bursar of Vienna
University is authority for statement
that 1000 is the average number Of
duels fought each year by students of
the institution.
The duels are not fought out singly,
because the swordsmen seldom can az
ford to hire hall in which to conduct
the private strife safe from the eyes
and ears of the authorities. Conse-
quently the secretaries of the various
student groups keep track of the affairs
and when a sufficient number have
accumulated there is a long program
in some one hall.
The fighters fall into three cate
gories. The first includes those who
fight TO prove manliness. They chal-
lenge without provocation.
The second category comprises those
who fight on trivial grounds, such as
walking out with another fellows girl,
or being stared at
The last group challenges for insults
of a graver nature. 1t includes Jewish
students, but they do not always get
satisfaction as pan-German Christian
win not meet a Jew and the Roman
Catholic clerical students will not fight
at all, as matter Of principle.
