Miss Hayes. for instance, emerges from
Hollywood's belching furnaces a keener

Hopkins with the masterpiece that her

DILL WILL PRESS
RAIL BILL ACTION
Predicts Senate Fight on
Personnel and Wage, Cut
Restriction.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Senate will be asked by Chair
man Dill of the Interstate Commerce
Committee to give early consideration
to the administrations railroad reor-
ganization-economy bill. which was ap-
proved In committee late yesterday with
an amendment to insure workers their
jobs at present wage levels. For the
time being, however, the Senate Is
working on the Glass bank bill.
Dill predicted a fight in the Senate
on the amendment prohibiting dis
missal of employees or the cutting OF
wages In carrying out orders of the
railroad regional committees and the
Federal co-ordinator, but said Presi-
dent Roosevelt had no objection to it.
The amendment was approved in
committee after bitter controversy.
Some members contended the railroad
committees should be permitted to cut
forces if rigid economy orders were to
be complied with.
Dill, however, said that under the
amendment the roads would not be re-
Quired to fill normal vacancies up to 5
per cent year through deaths, retire
ments and designations, and in this way
the carriers could reduce their forces
by $4,000.
The Washington Senator also pointed
out that business is picking up and the
roads could save in another way by
not calling back men who have been
laid off in recent months.

ROOSEVELT TO FILL
SHOALSPOSTS SOON
$50 Prospects Considered
for Two to Aid Morgan
on Board.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
With Arthur E. Morgan, president of
Antioch College In Ohio, selected as
director of President Roosevelt's vast
Tennessee Valley-Muscle Shoals prof.
ect. the two other members of the three
man Government corporation will be
appointed soon by Mr.. Roosevelt from
a list of $50 prospects so work may be
started quickly.
Morgan has wide engineering knowl-
edge and experience, having been iden-
titled with many major flood control
projects, and has brought Antioch Col
lege, operated on the work-study plan,
to rank of first prominence.
Quick Probe Expected.
The corporation Is authorized to
build dams, power houses, reservoirs,
irrigation works, power plants, trans
mission lines and to manufacture ex-
perimental fertilizer.
Word was passed yesterday that
quick action would be forthcoming in
the Governments investigation of
charges that Federal property at Muscle
Shoals had been misuSed by private
power companies.
Planning for this investigation, the
President is understood to have selected
Huston Thompson, a special assistant
to the Attorney General to head the
inquiry.
Both the Alabama Power Co. and
the Tennessee Electric Power Co.,
against which the charges were made
by an unnamed electrical engineer in
letter to Senator Norris, Republican,
of Nebraska, have denied the allega-
tions and welcomed an inquiry.
Two Months Required.
The investigation is expected to re-
Quire about two months. A tentative
inquiry already has been made by Louis
r. CLAWS, an investigator, for Secre-
tary of the Interior Ickes at the di-
rection of Mr. Roosevelt. His report
has been turned over to the Justice
Department.
The engineer Is understood to have
been with the Roosevelt party when
the Chief Executive visited Muscle
Shoals before Inauguration. The COM
plant, which was sent to President
Roosevelt by Senator Norris, centers
around the alleged action of the power
companies In interchanging electricity
by means of Federal property instead
of purchasing 1t from the Government.

FIREMEN SEEK HIVE;
THEY HAVE THE BEES
Swarm Captured by Cutting of
Tree Limb Housed in Back Yard
of Engine House.

No. % Engine Company, Of the Fire
Department, has sent out a hurry call
for one beehive, minus the bees. The

the queen, which at present are buzzing
angrily about make-shift hive in the

The company became richer by one
swarm of bees when it was called out
this morning to dislodge the bees from
tree ON Nineteenth street, between !
and X streets, just back Of the Medical
Building.
The dislodging was simple All the
firemen did was cut off one small
branch Of the tree upon which the bees
had swarmed and then went their way,
after squirting few strays with water
The swarm that drew out No. %
Engine Company, to 2722 Woodley place
about the same time, did not fare the
same fortunate fate. That swarm lit
on fence post in the rear of that
address, and, barring taking down the
fence. could not be safely moved So
the firemen killed the entire swarm
with wet cloths and a stream of water
