Strict regulation-if not outright
abolition-of railroad stock holding
companies may be proposed at this
session of Congress, administration
advisers said today.
Although Chairman Wheeler of The
Senate Railroad Investigating Com
mittee said no legislation had Been
drafted yet, he indicated the problem
was undergoing thorough study.
The action would be one result of
President Roosevelts search for ways
to relieve the financial distress of the
Nations rail lines.
At his press conference late yester-
day Mr.. Roosevelt said the need for
continuing holding companies had
been discussed by the representatives
of railway labor and management,
Government officials and Congressman
who met with him earlier in the
day.
Designed to End Abuses.
There was general agreement, he
said, that such companies we're not
much in the public interest. Their
abolition or control, other informed
persons said, would be designed both
to end 'abuses" of ownership attrib-
uted to them and to ease the financial
burdens imposed on some roads by
their holding company obligations.
The only other general agreement
reached by the conferees, it was re-
ported, was that in event of consolida-
tions or pooling of services provision
would have to be made to avoid throw
ing men out of work.
Mr.. Roosevelt said this might be
done partly by reducing employe rolls
through not filling vacancies. Other
ways, probably including annuity pay
for men cut off. would have to be
worked out, he said.
Wage Cuts Not Discussed.
The President reported wage cuts
we're not discussed They have been
put forward by some rail executives as
one of the quickest means of reducing
expenses, and are to be considered at
a meeting of class roads in Chicago
Friday.
That meeting also will consider re-
questipg the I. C. c. to add a new
freight rate increase to the average S
per cent boost recently granted.
Indications were that both these
courses would meet quick opposition.
George Harrison of the Association Of
Railway Labor Executives, one OF those
at yesterdays White House conference,
said labor was 'unalterably opposed"
to pay cuts.
Some observers believed the I. c. c..
would regard new rate boost with
disfavor. w. M. w. SplaWn, chairman
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. said he had pointed out to Mr.

Senate Race, New Deal
Feud Blamed
BY THEODORE HUNTLEY

Dy AA1GODOAkG AASAN
Governor Nice's formal entry
into the Maryland gubernatorial
race last night, in a radio speech
broadcast over six stations, left
the States political situation in a
more muddled condition than ever
if that were possible.
Although he himself had a clear
enough field for denomination by
his own party in September, his
chance for reelection appeared to
hang on the results of hectic last
minute maneuverings by Demo
cratic leaders in the hope of find
ing a formula to beat him. The
governorship fight on the Demo
cratic side was further compli-
Gated by the senatorial situation,
as New Dealers, determined if
possible to defeat Senator TydingS,
sought vainly for agreement on a
compromise candidate who could
be hooked up with Representative
Lewis to sweep the State, and for
whom most of the other guberna-
torial aSpirantS would be willing
to withdraw.
BYRD RUMORED
President H. c. Curly" Byrd,
able and Apollo-like head of Mary
land u, was named in persistent
gossip as their compromise choice.
There were those who believed he
would announce his candidacy or
be drafted for the fight in the
next day or two.
Nor were there substantial indi-
cations that the Democratic aspir-
ants now in the fight would with
draw in his favor. Mayor Jackson,
Of Baltimore, who has withdrawn
three or four times in the past for
other candidates, was clearly an
gered by the suggestion. Attorney
General Herbert r. O'Conor was
vigorously stumping the State.
REPRISAL THREAT
State Senator Lansdale G. Sass
Ger, of Prince Georges county, was
sweetening the pot meanwhile
with predictions that rivalry be-
tween the O'Conor and Jackson
forces would leave a trail of bitter
ness after the primary.
It was in this atmosphere,
further thickened by threats of
reprisal by the National Admins
tration against Federal officehold
erS who refuse to get back of
Lewis. that Governor Nice
launched his candidacy for a Sec
ond term as governor.
He offered himself as a candi-
dace. the governor said, because
the program begun in his first ad-
ministration is only half finished.
Admitting thai he had said sew
eral times in his 1884 campaign
md subsequently, following his
election, that he would not be
a candidate to succeed himself,
he declared that on the record
and in good conscience he could
not refuse to run.
BIG NOISE STAGE
Meanwhile, Maryland politics
generally were rapidly approach
ing the Hiss boom ah h h-h!"
stage, along with the Fourth of
July, with every indication that
they would continue to warm up
with the weather. The highlights:
Senator Radcliffe personally
was under fire by New Dealers in
Maryland and Washington. They
feel that in supporting Senator
Tydings for reelection he has de-
serted the New Deal ship and
turned on President Roosevelt.
More and more, on the senator
ship, it appeared certain that the
SAGE between Tydings and Lewis
would be decided in September on
the basis of New Deal support or
opposition.

Coast industry
BEAUFORT, July 20. (UPl

btNifN lk /, July ~. VI
DR.. Herbert f. Prytnerch, Bimg-
hampton. y. Y, director of the
L. ). Fisheries Biological station
here, last night was awarded the
North Carolina Academy Of Set
cucc gold medal for 1888 for SoLv-
iny an outstanding problem fac
ing the oyster industry.
IN. Prythcrch discovered COM
mon NUT crabs were dcvOurlng
sick oysters and transmitting
large number OF minute parasite
from them % healthy beds, His
discovery makes 1t possible for
those engaged in oyster culture
to combat the parasite and re-
establish production on abandon

DR.. Hugo l.. BlomQuiSt, Sccrc-

announced the award, SAID the
oyster industry has suffered loss
es in excess OF $I,UOO,OO0 since
1880 in i've different coastal re

adoption of the eighteenth amend
mcnt, he said, but when the bur
den of enforcement was put on
the national government there
was too much buck passing and
the law was so widely violated the
people lost respect for it and the
amendment was repealed.
Should his views on the qucs-
ton be necessary in deciding the
case. Judge Alley said, he would
apply the statement Lincoln did
to Slavery-that it is impossible
for this nation to exist half slave
and half free.
The liquor problem in North
Carolina, he continued, cannot be
rcmedicd so long as half Of the
state is wet and the other half
dry. This situation, he said, makes
liquor just as plentiful in the dry
counties as in the wet counties.
But there is constitutional
question to be decided, he said,
and the best rule to follow in
such Il case is that the legislature
is presumed to have said what it
meant and to have meant what 1t
said.
The case. he continued, is gov
crncd by the amendment to the
state constitution adopted in 1871 &
which forbids the legislature to
pass any local act which partially
lrcpcals public law. In every case
where the supreme court has al
| lowed such a local law to stand,
he said, the law has been to aid
| the general statute and not in
conflict with it.
The Cabe act, he said, neccS-
Sarily repeats two provisions of
the general law affecting liquor
stores and elections. First, it takes
| from the board of control the
power to designate where the IL
quor stores may be placed, he
said, and secondly, and more ia
tally. it brings about d situation
where minority of the voters in
the county may say whether the
majority shall have liquor stores.
1t necessarily follows, he con-
tinucd, that the Cabc act is class
lcgiSlation; because if there arc
merits in liquor control it gives
! this control to two localities in the
county and dcprivcS others of it,
and if control is evil it forces it
on the rest of the county. Too, nc
said, the act dcprives voters out.
side the two townships Of their
citizenship because their votes do
not count in determining the re-
suit, and it dcprivcS a part of the
county of the equal protection of
the law.
Approximately 100 persons,
most of whom did not appear
greatly interested in the outcome
of the hearing, were in the large
well-appointcd courtroom for the
. proceedings.

Corrigan, with SIS in his poe

The American hero of the most
unique flight in more than a de-

would like to sec London before
returning home and said that nc
might fly to England.
He had not consulted Irish

He repeated his promise that
he had no plan to fly back to the

His only immediate concern
was a new outfit of clothing that
Cudahy obtained for him.
Government authorities insisted
that thew did not intend to place
