Rail Problem
Develops Into
Guessing Game
Future of Road* Depend?
Solely Upon "Exercise
of Judgment*' By Inter
state Commerce Board
\o Guide for Rate Fixing
Earning Capacity, Valuation.
Cost of Material and
Wages All Are Uncertain
By Stanley Frost
Special ?dispatch to The Tribune
WASHINGTON, March 12.?The fu?
ture of the railroads in the United
States, for some time at least, will de
pond on what really will be a guessing
game by the Interstate Commerce Com?
mission?a process more sedately re?
ferred to as the "exercise of judg?
ment." In fixing the new freight rates,
on which will hang the railroads' sta?
bility, credit and power of growth, as
well as efficient operation, the corp
mftsion will have to exercise judgment,
or guess aB to almost all the important
factors involved.
It will have to guess at the present
earning capacity of the roads, at the
valuation on which they are entitled to
pay individens, at the wages they will
have to pay and at the prices of the
materials they will have to use. From
?hese four guesses it will have to figure
what rates will bring the average oarti
ings of* the roads to 5 4 or t? per cent of
:he value.
First Move Uncertain
It is uncertain,?under the new law,
whether the first move toward increas?
ing the rates will come from the com?
mission or the roads. Previously it has
levolved upon the roads to ask for such
increases, and the burden of proof that
?hey were needed has rested on the ap?
plicants. But the new law specifically
?lirecta the commission to fix rates at a
??ertain level, and seems to imply that
it should take the initiative in doing bo.
In general, the new law gives the
commission a latitude of action and in?
itiative which is far wider than before,
and opens the way for an attitude of
eadership and helpfulness that, if tak
n advantage of, will make it very dif
""rent from the semi-judicial body of
?he past.
The commission can make or. "break
'he roads, and on the result will de?
pend whether they continue under pri?
vate control or whether the govern?
ment ownership experiment will be
orced upon the country after a few
years. Undoubtedly the government
ownership advocates, who are anxious
-o see the present r?gime fail, will do
all that they can, and it is much, to
confuse the commission and put pres
-ure upon it to hamper the roads. .3
There are no figures which will per
aiit a scientific fixing of rates; In
estimates made in previous article? the
??.alance sheet for 1919 and the book
?iluation of the roads have been used,
but"'tfeitber: is satisfactory and'..both
! will have to be amended by the judg?
ment of the commission.
In..1819-theye were two heavy slumps
? in traffic that added an unknown num?
ber -Of millions to the deficit. Also
'iierg were wage increases that went
rito effect -during the year, and a
aeriod of traffic that was close to the
?ecord and will not be repeated every
car.
Old Figures Valueless
There is little likelihood that the
? nditions will be d?ipAk.iUed for many
?ears. The figures of 1918 are of no
l'alu?-?that was the war year..', "And
almost every item of cost and income
as changed since 1917. So there is no
way of reaching an accurate statement
of the earning capacity of the roads.
?Probably the 1919 figures~will be used,
with modifications dictuttxl by- the
.udgment of the commission.
An attempt to fix the value of the
roads meets equal difficulties. Both de?
ductions and additions nv?.st be made
??'rom and to the book valuation of
twenty billions. The attempt to have
an actual appraisal ut! the roads has
been going on .for years, but is far
from complete. After it is finished the
commission will have to decide such
? questions as how much to allow for the
investment necessary tq get a line in
- running condition, build up the organi?
zation and establish business connec?
tions?all costly processes.
Credit a Vital l.**-'.
Credit, as has beon shown, is the
most vital and immediate v? the roads'
needs. The restoration of competition
insures that they will do their best
both to gat business and to hold it
through rmprovecj service. The new
laws, and to Home extent the changed
attitude of those railway executives
who had been too engrossed in the
selfish interests of their roads, will
permit the advantages which havo been
shown in centralized control to be
joined to the greater advantages of
private operation.
But to work out these things, and
e-speeially to bring the roads back to a
condition where they are equal to the
needs of the country, requires billions
of dollars. V.'hether it is two billion
or six. they must ue borrowed from
tho public. And the public will not
lend until it is assured that it will get
. Us money back with interest. This de?
pends on the earnings of the roads, on
their financial stability. ?
The decision of tho commission on
rates, upon which all of this will de?
pend, will almost certainly be handed
down some time in August, for unless
the rates go up on September 1 the
roads will go into that month with
assured deficits and approaching bank?
ruptcy.
It probably will be four months more
nefore the results of the decision will
become apparent. So the date at
, which, at the earliest, railroad credit
? may be established and the great work
of reconstructing and enlarging the

Arraigned before Magistrate Schwab

? Andrew Lockett, twenty-three years
? old, the Columbia student who was
| arrested as a result of the sudden
' death Thursday night of Milton
' Sternfeld, a Columbia Law School
? ; graduate, in a boxing bout, was held
j yesterday in $2,500 bail for a hearing
' March 18.
j Sternfeld collapsed during a bout
j with Lockett in Earl Hall before raera
I bers of the Engineering Society.
At th? r-anclusion of the autopsy
j yesterday Dr. Norria reported that
' Sternfeld's da?th had been due to
I cerebral hemorrhage. Every organ in
1 the man's body, he said, had been in
perfect condition and functioning prop
j errly, but the excitement, plus the exer?
cise of boxing, had caused h small
artery in the brain to burst.
Frank W. Stanton, attorney for
Lockett. asked that hi*- client r>e
paroled in his sustodv until the date
of the hearing. Assistant ?District
Attorney Lorenzo Carlino objected,
; and on his motion bail was fixed -'it

h rom o Staff Correspondent
; ALBANY, March 12. Legislators
1 here differ in their opinion as to tho
effect the death of Milton Sternfeld
! in a boxing exhibition at Column)?
; University will have on the Walker
boxing bill. The measure was favorably
reported to the Senate last week and
had every assurance of passage.
Because of the death of Sternfleld,
however, some legislators express doubt
of the advisability of pissing it. They
cali attention to the fact that the death
of Stephen McDonald, an Albany boy,
, as the result of a blow received in a
; bout in 1917, caused lh? repeal of the
\ Prawley boxing law. and they feai
: the death of Sternfeid may kill the
Walker bill.
Other legislators insist that if the
, Walker bill were now on the statute
' books, such fatalities could not occu.
: The bill, they point out, would permit
! only physically fit young men entering
the ring and require a rigid physical
: examination of fighters before all bouts

and two states reported the majority of
children are losing the grade.
"Another significant fact is revealed,"
says.A. 0. Neal, of the bureau's divi?
sion of rural education. Since .1890 there
, has be.ne a continuous and increasing
withdrawal of men teachers. The per?
centage of men teachers in 1890 was 37.
In 1910 it had fallen to 22 per cent, and
in 1918 to 17 per cont.
j "The question of teachers' salaries is
i vital, and a comparison from 1916 to
i 1?18 shows that in the two years the
I average teacher's salary advanced from
| $5G3 to $035 a year, an increase of $72.
I or 13 per cent. The figures for 1918
j show that the average salary for ele
| mentary teachers was $606, and the
j average salary for high school teach?
ers, $1,031. The salaries of rural teach
! ers are far below this average in many
states, and salaries as low as $150 to
$200 a year are found in many locali?
ties.
"Another cause of teachers withdraw?
ing from the profession is found in the
lack of provision made for suitable
homes in the community where the
\ teachers may become a part of the so
; cial organization. This is particularly
I true in rural districts, where in many
communities they are providing teach?
ers' homes in connection with the
schools."
Hylan Attacked
For School Bills
i _._
Chamber of Commerce
Calls for Defeat of
Measures at Albany
The establishment of a Federal
budget, a drastic revision of the na
! tion's system of taxes and tho defeat
of bills pending in Albany, which, it
was asserted, would vitiate tho inde
! pendence of the Board of Education
here, were urged in resolutions adopted
at the March meeting of the Chamber
of Commerce yesterday.
After William G. Willcox, former
president of the Board of Education,
reported adversely on behalf, of the
on Senate bills, introductory numbers
t>38. 718 and 717, affecting the educa?
tional system of the city, Charles D.
Freeman, a cotton broker, who served
in Washington in a civilian capacity
during the war, launched an attack on
Mayor Hylan, who, he said, had in?
spired the hills.
"? believe these bills," Mr. Freeman
said, "were prepared by the Mayor, and
anything- that flows from his reservoir
of ignorance we should analyze in re?
spect to its meaning and purpose.
"We will recognize ? in these pro-,
posais a subtle form of Bolshevik
propaganda. Here is an attempt to
place tlie education of children with?
out tho authority of the Board of Edu?
cation and the Board of Examiners- -
to let a teaching .staff largely by de?
fault govern, end also thus make it
less difficult for teachers to enter the
services of the schools. 1 know from
evidence, that 1 have seen that more
teachers are now sowing the. seeds of
1 tiuper-sociali.sm and Bolshevism than
1 ever before."
Referring to the alleged deterioration
in the character of boys entering the
business world, which, he said, rfrought
about the recent bond robberies in the
financial district, Mr. Freeman added:
"The boys are a riotous, ill bred,
scrappy lot, with no sense of duty and
no feeling for their work. Their recent
record in the Street shows that they
have not had the fundamentals fixed
in them in the schools, as was done
twenty-five years ago!"
Reporting for-the committee on state
and municipal taxation, L. F. Lorce,
president of the D., L. & W. Railroad.;
urged the repeal of the excess and ;
super-profits taxes and of duplication
of inheritance taxes by Federal and
? stato authorities. He suggested in
| stead consumption taxes. The report
I was adopted unanimously.
The resolutions asked for repeal of
the excess profits tax features of the
revenue act of 1018, repeal of tho sur?
tax feature of the income tax, decrease
of the inheritance tax and imposition
of a consumption tax at a fixed rate
of percentage on amounts In excess of
one dollar.
Ensign Stole His Wife,
Says Kin of Lafayette
?Naval Officer~Want8 to K*ow
When and Where He
Captured Love
A suit to recover $75,000 which N.
Lafayette-Savoy, an attorney, started
two years ago in the Supremo Court
against Erisign George N. Grego%y,
U. S. N., alleging alienation of his
wife's affections, came to light yester?
day when Justice Newburger granted
an order sought by Gregory demanding
that the plaintiff submit a bill of pail
ticulars.
Mr. Lafayette-Savay alleges that the
defendant killed hiB wife's affection for
him in 1914. The affair made him ill,
he says, so that he could not work.
! He declaros that he has spent much
; time and money in vain trying to win
back his wife's love.
Ensign Gregory demands specific in
i formation about Mr. Lafayette-Savay's
| illness; he wants to know precisely
i how, when and where he won the affec
| tions of Mrs. Lafayette-SaVay and he
wants to know how much time and how
' much money, exactly, Mr. Lafayette
j Savay invested in the effort to recap
i ture the regard of his wife.
Mr. Lafayette-Savay claims kinship
> to Marquis Lafayette. The action in
i which he is plaintiff came up once on
the trial calendar, but was put over
because the military duties of Ensign
Gregory did not permit his attend- I
? anee at court, at that time. There is |
: thought to be some chance of a set- i
' tlement now. ,

May Get Gold by
Liquidating Loan
?Metal Pledged to Secure Ad
vanre to Kolchak ' Govern?
ment May Be Released
Another $40,000,000 of gold may be?
come available, for predicted inter?
national gold movements, about which
so much is being said in Wall Street
at present. It was learned yesterday
that there, is a real possibility that
the loan made last December to the
Kolchak All-Russian government, with
headquarters at Omsk, may be liqui?
dated before maturity as a result of
political changes in Russia. Although
the late Admiral Kolchak is not of the
field, his r?gime has been technically
succeeded by the government headed
by General Denikihe.
The loan to the Omsk government,
which was made ,by an American syn?
dicate headed by Kidder, Peabody &
Co. and by British banks,, does not
mature for about fifteen months. How?
ever, well informed bankers said yes?
terday that developments in Russia
might lead to the liauidation of the
loan in the near future. They denied
that any steps to this end 'had yet
been taken.
The American institutions advanced
$22,500,000 in credit and the British
banks between $15,000,000 and $16,000,
000, in order to permit'.the Omsk gov?
ernment to buy munitions and com?
modit?s in foreign markets. These
credit advances wtere secured by the
deposit of approximately $40,000,000
in gold by the Omsk government as
collateral. This gold is held in the
vaults of the Hong Kong and Shanghai j
Bank, at Hong Kong, China, which is
acting as trustee.
In the vent of a liquidation of the '
loan, thus freeing the collateral, bank- ]
ers associated with the transaction i
said that the gold would go to the !
highest bidder, and that it was con?
ceivable that Great Britain might ac- i
quire it all ami'ship $ to the" United j
States in connection with the Anglo- ?
French maturity. ' '

just as beautiful, just as painstakingly fashioned?and
?developed in the same materials as the originals, down
to the last tiny flower.
And another outstanding feature of this magnificent

to offer such hats at prices within reach. Due to the
abnormally low vahie of the franc however.
