PROBE OF RAILS
FINANCE BACKED
Jones of R. F. C. Suggests
Bank Control Study Is
Advisable.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Chairman Jesse Jones Of the Re-
construction Finance Corporation told
O Senate committee today an investi-
CATION of banker control and financ-
ing of railroads might serve good
purpose"
The Texan, questioned by members
of the Interstate Commerce Commit
tee on the Wheeler resolution pro-
posing such an inquiry, said he had
long been of the opinion that "our
railroads are dominated by bankers. II
That's rather natural where the
bankers hold the purse strings" he
said, adding such control had mot
always been to the detriment of the
roads and not always In the interest
Of the roads"
He said the r. F. C. had no power
to subpoena witnesses. but could with
hold loans to railroads.
Investment Check Advised.
He appeared after Charles d. Ma
hattie, member of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. asserted a law pre-.
venting one railroad investing In the
securities Of another without commits
sion approval was entirely feasible
and one way of keeping close tab on
"extravagant expenditures" and un-
wise stock investments.
Jones said the r. F. c. had loaned
$3.50, 1000 900 to so railroads and $7O,-
100000 had been repaid. Fourteen
loans approximating $50000,0 900 were
in default, he said, but he. added the
corporation did not expect to lose
much money"
You are natural optimist?" Sena-
tor Couzens, Republican, of Michigan
observed.
"Yes, I am" Jones replied.
CouzenS then recalled that Jones
had said the r. F. C. would not lose
any money on the 500, 900 600 Dawes
bank loan"
If said that I was pretty opti-
mistic," Jones said.=
Tentative Commitments,
He added the corporation had ten
tatiye commitments now for the Colo
RADIO Southern, Missouri Kansas Texas
and Chicago. Great Western. He said
there had been "lot of talking"
about reorganizations Of the Denver.
Rio Grande Western, the Missouri
Pacific and Western Pacific, but no
plans had been suggested thus far for
reorganization Of the Rock Island or
the st. LOuiS-San Francisco.
He said he favored reorganizations
Of railroads whereby securities would
be issued on the basis Of interest pay
able If earned, such as giving a man
81 900 bond. but with contingent in
| terest, and letting the bondholders
have voice in the management OF
the road"
The Van Sweringens, he said. had
not submitted complete reorganiza-
ton plan for the Missouri Pacific.
If and when we do cooperate in
a plan for that road" he said, "we'o
have a clean first mortgage for the
new and old money" The old money
he referred TO is S23,000,000 Of r. F
c. loans.

Need Pluto Water
with Amazing Double Action
| Safely, Gently Relieves Corstipa-
|. ton in Fastest Time on Record!
Q Stimulates Gall Bladder and LiUer
L.toN Normal" Gree FIowing' Action!

Doctors say that constipation, liver
and gall bladder troubles often come
together. Millions suffer them daily
yet don't know why. Often, physi-
clans say, it is not only because you're
constipated but also because hillary
drainage from liver and gall bladder
is not normal.
Hence, an ordinary laxative (acting
only on bowels) temporarily relieves
the constipation but often leaves you
still feeling terrible. Pluto Water,
however with its amazing double
action, helps all these troubles at the
same time. First, opens the pylorus
giving you a prompt, gentle flush.
Second, tones up the system-stimu-
lates gall bladder action and activates
'lazy" livers, thus helping restore
them to normal, "free flowing" action.
Relief is auckland thorough! You
feel amazingly better in an hour. Soon
feel normal!
