ENGINEER Of TRAIN

Quick Action of Fireman

Disastrous Collision.

waukee, st. Paul and Pacific Railroad
Athundered southwark toward Excelsior
Springs late Saturday with dead engi-
gneer at the throttle and only the quick
action of the locomotives fireman in
stopping the train averted a collision
with a freight train.
& The incident became known yesterday
when the family of the dead engineer,
George F. Robinson, So, expressed the
wish to give the fireman, E. E. Milburn,
credit for saving Mr.. Robinson's perfect
49-year record with the railroad from
being marred.
4 The train, from Ottumwa, Iowa, was
due at Excelsior Springs at Ash o'clock;
y freight train, running ahead of the
passenger, was scheduled to take the
siding to clear the main line for the
faster train. Eight miles east of EX-
lcelsior Springs, Milburn was surprised
TO see the freight train rounding a curve
ahead and not yet completely on side
track
When the passenger train did not
slacken speed, Milburn shouted across
the cab, and then was startled to see
Robinson slumped in his seat Milburn
leaped across the cab, closed the throt-
tie and applied the air brakes. The
train slowed down sufficiently to allow
the freight to get into the clear on
the siding.
Milburn then ran the train into EX-
scelsior Springs yards, where another
engineer entered the cab. The pas
sengers left the train at the Union
Station in Kansas City without know
ing what had occurred.
Mr.. Robinson died of heart disease,

ERADICATION is HELD
SOVIET RELIGIOUS AIM
American Committee Appeals to
Russia for More Liberal Policy
Toward Peoples Beliefs.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 24.-The Ameri-
can Committee on Religious Rights and
Minorities yesterday made public re-
port of a subcommittee. which said that
Soviet religious activities are attrib-
utable not to any objection to any
particular form of religion, but to hos
tility to any religion as such and to
determination to extirpate it for the
coming generation In any and every
form"
The committee voiced an appeal to
Russian authorities ito adopt a more
liberal policy in dealing with the con-
scious beliefs of their people"
The committee said it was not inf1u-
enced in making the appeal by any
political, social or economic structure of
the Soviet system, but by belief that 1t
is "the imperative duty of all right
thinking men and women to voice their
protest against grievous injustice where
ever it exists
In voicing its opinions, the committee
said, it did mot overlook the fact that
intolerance and antagonism to religious
liberty have sometimes diSgraced other
countries, including our own"
The committee has added that history
has shown that persecution of religions
by the state has never achieved its pur-
pose, as "the sacred beliefs of mankind
cannot be stamped out that way"

the subcommittee on whose report the

Now that the Senate has completed
! the new tariff bill, or practically so,
analysis of its features becomes pAsible.
and the first disclosure that the study
makes is that after all the years bother,
astundingly little is going to be done by
Congress to change existing import
schedules. The tariff commission has
prepared summary of what the flercely
contested votes of the House and Senate
have done, in a dollars and cents way,
and the only conclusion that can be
drawn from it is that remarkably small
change is intended as compared with
present law.
The commission figures that the pres
ent tariff law as applied to the imports
of the United States for 1928 would pro-
duce 1912 100000 in customs duties;
that on those same imports the new
tariff as 1t was passed by the House
would produce $3.50 1000. 900, and that
the rates as they have been cut by the
fern bring in $578,00O,000 on the 1928
volume of imports.
Further the increases as made are
shown by the commission to apply al
most entirely to agricultural products.
About $50, 000, 900 of the increased duties
as the Senate has voted them run to
foodStuffs of general classes, and an
other $4,000, 600 comes from the in
crease in the sugar duties. Wool and
wooden products are allowed about a
$4,000, 900 increase, and the long list of
schedules for manufactured products
come out to practically the same as
present law.
Further, there are two prime matters
of administrative arrangement in the
bill which might have great economic
significance. One of these is the Senate
provision for encouraging farm exports
by allowing the issue of export deben-
tureS-which is hardly likely to be ac-
cepted-yhile the other is the abolition
of the present flexible tariff provisions,
by which tine President and the Tariff
Commission can vary congressionally
fixed rates to meet changing conditions
of production. 1t is probable that the

Just now the railroads have been
