In pre senting their applications for freight rate increases, the railroads contend ed before the interstate commerce com mission that $1,107,000,000 was neces sary to advance their income to the six per cent basis permitted by the new transportation act. Shippers and sate commissions generally agreed that some advances were necessary, but they opposed both the total and the method of application. Passenger rates, the carriers pro posed, would be left unchanged and their program of advances, applicable throughout the country, did not take into account any wage increases made by the railroad labor board. The advances aa proposed were: Eastern roads, 30.4 per cent, to yield an advance in all revenues of 21.4 per cent, or $544,000,000. Western roads, 23.9 per cent, to ad vance all revenues 17 per cent or $352, 803,000. ' Southern roads, 30.6 per cent, to pro vide 20.7 per cent larger revenue, or $120,770,000. Apart from these advances, 38 roads in the southwest acked separate treat ment from the western classification, and a rate increase of 32.8 per cent. An estimated valuation of $20,616, 000,000 placed on the transportation systems by their owners was ques tioned by both shippers and state utili ty commissions, who complained that "book value" was unreliable, while the carriers contended that their fig ures were conservative, especially be cause of rising cost of materials and equipment. Increases in passenger rates, and flat freight increases instem of the percentage advances, also were advocated by shippers to equalize the burden of any advance. Setting out the necessity for the in crease, the railroads claimed that the net income of all the country's roads fell from $1,056,000,000 in 1916 to $510,000,000 in 1919, while their in vestment was increased more than $2 000,000,000. Operating expenses, the roads said, have increased 99 1 per cent since 1916, and revenues 36.37 per cent. Operating expenses, it was added, are now ; 19 per cent of the revenues, against 68 per cent in 1916. Arguing for the increases, the rvl road executives said the one billion dollars of added revenue was neces sary if the roads were to handle the nation's commerce satisfactorily. They contended that savings promised by them could not be effected at onca because the roads were not returned to theui in the tame condition s thry ere when taken over and because of unsolved labor difficulties. Clifford Thorne of Chicago, repre senting shippers, recommended to the commiMion that the roads be unified for operation a they were in 1917, de elaring that only in this way could the roads solve the existing transporta tion problem. Mr. Thorne also argued that the rate advances asked were excessive s the carriers had not made any provision f r more efficient operation or for de crease in the cost of materials. 11 also argued that the companies se too high a value on their properties and that they were capitalizing land granted them by federal and ststc gov ernment without cot and aV.ing the people to forever pay a tax on ttiese free g-"fts.

Austin, Texas, July 20. Evidence that Texas was inhabited by a prehis toric people different from the Indian who roamed the plains when the first white men came has been unearthed by James E. Pearce, professor of an thropology of the L'niversity of Texas. The early inhabitants, he said, lived a nomad-like existence, roaming from one part of the wilderness to another and killing, with rude atone weapons, ani mals and even humans for food. In co-operation with the Smithson ian institute bureau of ethnology, Professor Pearce has been investigat ing the mounds for more than a year, he reported. "The life history of these people has been read from the records they left in their burned-rock mounds or kitch en middens," the professor said. ''These mounds are piles of broken and charred bits of limestone three or four feet high and sometimes as long as 100 feet. They are made up of the kitch en refuse of these prehistoric people, who had regular camp sites at fre quent intervala along the Edwards plateau, extending from Austin west ward to New Mexico. "These people evidently were ad vanced to the stage of paleolithic cul ture, an earlier age than the period of neolithic culture, to which moat of the American Indians belonged. These early Texas inhabitants had arrows and spears tipped with flint points, chopped but not polished. They did not polish their stone weapons, nor did they engage in any form of agricul ture. They were, however, skilful skin dref sers for we have found skin scrap ing tools made of flint. "The kitchen middens which we dis covered are the only thing of their kind in America, so far as I know, al though they have- been found in other parts of the world. At these sites, camps were located with a great fre place in the center over wbiih huge Iabs of lirD5tone were placed as a sort of primitive stove upon which to cook the meat the inhabitants killed. "We know these people were canni bals for among the refuse heaps have been found human bones split apart in order to get at the marrow. "The soft limestone slabs, being ex posed to the weather, broke from time to time and were cast aside near-by, to be replaced by new ones." When the present investigation on the Edwards plateau has been conclud ed work w-ill be started upon the "fu neral mounds" in east Texas, which are the work of an entirely different race of people, according to Professor Pearce. These people, he said, lived in a later period. Their pottery and pol ished weapons have been found in the mounds. NET BURY Mrs. Porter Boeco is visiting her sister, Mrs. Richard Darling.
