RAILWAY CHIEF
ASSAILS U. S.
SHIPPING ACT
Addresses Bankers Con-
vention, Playing Develop
ing of Waterways.

BIZ United Press
CLEVELAND, Oct. 2.-SubSidized
transportation on water and land
and downward revisionS Of freight
rates were attacked today Fred w.
Sargent, president Of the Chicago 81
Northwestern Railway Company,
addressing the general convention
of the American Bankers Associa-
ton.
Declaring that railroads have suf-
fered extensively since passage of
the transportation act, and that OPP
Grating costs are exceeding reve-
nueS, Sargent asSailed the govern
ment'S position In developing water
ways for the operation Of subsidized
shipping.
Meet Changing Conditions
"The position of the railroads"
Sargent said, rs and always has
been that they must meet chang
ing conditions, but they never had
the right to assume that their in
vestors should be deprived of a fair
return by virtue of taking from
them tonnage upon the rivers and
highways through government sub
sidy or operation.
1T Is difficult to understand why
railroads should be compelled to
compete with their own government
in the making of rates in order to
hold the heavy commodities to the
rails. To my mind this drift toward
government in business is a thing
that no legitimate business ought to
be required to contemplate, and its
ultimate effects will be most disaS-
trous to the economic and industrial
prosperity of our country"
Officers Are Installed
Sargent demanded that further
declines in freight rates not only be
stopped, but that an upward revi-
sion be granted so that carriers can
survive and produce a reasonably
fair return to their investors"
Sargent's address was followed by
formal installation of Rome G. Ste
phenson, South Bend, Ind, as presi-
dent and other new officers elected
Wednesday after which delegates
departed to greet President Hoover
at the station.
The President will address the
closing session of the convention
tonight at Public auditorium.

JEWISH FAITH
TRIUMPHS OVER
HARVARD RULES
Students Refuse to Take
Exam on Yom Kippur;
ProctorS Assigned.

IN United Press
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct. a.
The dictates of the ancient Jewish
faith have scored at least a par
tial victory over Harvard tradition.
Harvard, which ordinarily OBJ
serves its old-established rules with
rigid reverence, has decided to make
a concession in the face of con-
flict between its own regulations
and the mosaic law as regards the
celebration of the hottest day on
the Hebrew calendar.
Yom Kippur, observed today by
Jews the world over, came on the
date set for the important divisional
examinations Harvard seniors must
pass to be eligible for degrees.
A dozen Jewish students pointed
TO the fact that religious scruples
would prevent them from taking
the tests today and requested a
postponement.
Refusal Arouses Jews
Dean Alfred G. Hanford regret
ted the conflict of dates, but said
it was too late to arrange post
ponement of the examinations and
indicated that the Jewish students
must either take the examinations
or wait an extra year for their de-
greeS.
The refusal TO delay the exami-
nations until after the observance
of the Day of Atonement aroused
not only the students affected, but
Jews in general.
It was recalled that Harvard uni
versity, down through the years, had
received liberal financial support
from Jewish sources. In 1929
julius Rosenwald donated $4,000
to Harvard. In the same year, Felix
NJ Warburg provided $4,000 for a
profeSSorship of the history of Ger
man culture.
Many other substantial Jewish
gifts we're recalled.
Situation Is Debated
In the face of the widespread pro-
test that followed Dean Hanford's
firm stand against any change in
the examination date, faculty men,
bers debated the situation at con-
ference with the examination COM
mittee and decided a proctor would
be assigned to each Jewish student
taking the examinations.
Though manual labor would be a
violation of the code of Yom Kip
pur, 1t was pointed out, the Jewish
students could dictate their answers
TO the questions and the proctorS
could do the actual writing.
Early today only one Jewish
senior had requested proctor, but
nearly dozen additional proctors
we're prepared to cooperate if asked
10 do so.

Hogs and Corn in IoqUa.

IOWA, out where the tall corn grows, pro-
duces about one-fourth of the commercial
crop OF hogs. The great supply Of corn for
FEEDING purposes is probably one of the main
causes of this huge output
One favorite method of hog producers ON a
large scale is to fence off large tracts of corn
and other grains and then turn the hogs Iooss
to feed themselves. When one area is thor
ouSny eaten over the animals are let int0
another, and so on till the feed is consumed
u the animals are ready for the market

tain shack
The sky and the pines and the silence had
done their work well.
The two spots one lung and the threat
OF spot on the other had entirely disappeared
Pennington had won
Pennington was released from the forest and
given his ticket of leave back to the haunts Of
men.
And Pennington, after weeks of procaStina-
ton with himself did not take it.
There was not much explaining to be done
about it. In fact, he never even discussed ID
with his guide. They just sat side by side
smoking pipeful after pipeful Of silence The
old guide knew. OF course. With the sensitive
ness that helped him to know the foot fall of n
deer.
He knew. The peace had bored it's way into
Pennington. Far, far from the tramp-tramu-
