RAILWAY HELP PLAN PROPOSED RY BAR GROUP Free Roads From AntiTrust Laws, Loosen Regulation, Report Urges. BY RUTH FINNEY Ttmea Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-Recom-mendation that railroad* be freed from operation of the anti-trust laws, and that regulation by the in-ter-state commerce commission be related considerably have been laid before the American Bar Association's section of public utility law by a special com%‘ttee appointed to study the subject The report, was submitted by Judge R. V. Fletcher, vice-president and general counsel of the Illinois Central railroad, and chairman of the committee. “The enforcement upon the railroads of competition through the anti-trust laws Is inconsistent with their being regulated as though they were natural monopolies,” the committee concluded. It suggested that regulation by the interstate commerce commission be continued since "it is not practicable to leave to the forces of competition the securing ot an equitable adjustment of the mutual rights which are involved,” but urged that the railroads be exempted from application of the anti-trust laws. Meanwhile, the committee urged that regulation should be modified In these respects to: Encourage the pooling of traffic and earnings. Make legitimate traffic agreements in regulation of competitive conditions. Permit consolidations and mergers without the present reservation that “competition shall be preserved as fully as possible." Base regulation of the entire, transportation industry on the principle that competitors shall have equal regulatory burdens under a system reflecting the fact that they are. competitive not enterprises. Another committee called attention to “unfairness” caused by regulation of railroads and lack of regulation of motor busses and trucks, and asked that a special study be made as to what federal action Is accessary on the subject. THREE ARE RULED OFF COUNTY ELECTION LIST Removal of Candidates from Tickets • Announced by Commissioners. Removal of three candidates from county election tickets has been ordered by election commissioners. They are Jacob Miller, independent Democratic candidate for sheriff: Otis M. Burnett, National party nominee for county commissioner, Third district, and Abraham Kollinger, Socialist party nominee for county commissioner, Second district. . Failure to file a petition of taxpayers with his declaration of candidacy caused Miller’s name to be dropped, commissioners said. Burnett was affected by the order because he is a resident of the Second instead of the Third district, ijnd Kollinger because he lives in the First instead of the Second district. , The board placed Fletcher Meisner of Anderson, In charge of voting machines for the November election, as factory representative.

Court Battle Over Reid Dope Film Dropped

IP” |!|L

Dorothy Davenport Reid By f nitrrf rrrm LOS ANGELES. Oct. 12—Settlement of a flve-year-o!d suit against Dorothy Davenport Reid, widow of Wallace Reid, over the motion picture, “The Red Kimono,” was indicated when it was placed off the superior court calendar. Gabrielle Darley Melvin of Phoenix, Ariz., charged that Mrs. Reid's picture depicting the evils of narcotics had invaded the privacy of her life. She asked $50,000 damages. A large part of the picture was said to have been based on Mrs. Melvin's past life. The complainant said she had married and “completely rehabilitated” herself, keeping her past life concealed. With the release of the picture, however, the facts of her past life became genera), knowledge, she alleged. The case was carried on demurrers to the state supreme court, which ruled Mrs. Melvin inherently was entitled to a right of privacy and ordered the trial to proceed. Property loss from fires in America is almost double per capita what it was 20 years ago,

SCIENTISTS TO BE MAROONED ON ICY PEAK Weather Study to Be Made This Winter on Top of Mt. Washington. P,u prifnrr £>ri ice GORHAM. N. H, Oct. 12.—A weather station on Mt. Washington. N. H. which has the reputation of being the windiest spot outside of' the "Home of the Blizzard” in Antarctic, opened today to record the gales, blizzards and quieter moods of the weather on this highest point in New England. Already the snows have begun, and there is no prospect that the observers will lead an easy life this winter. The party that is attempting this arduous task is up there lor the fun of it but not simply to live here, through the winter, though this in itself will be quite a trick. They will undertake to maintain a first order station and send out twice daily radio reports. They also will make many experiments in radio transmission. In charge is Joseph B. Dodgp of the Appalachian Mountain Club Dodge will be a frequent visitor to the station on the summit, and will maintain a fully equipped weather station at the base. The base station should provide many interesting comparisons of wind and temperature with top. Those who will live, on the summit are seasoned mountaineers. R. S. Monahan spent several weeks on Alaska's icy mountains this summer with Bradford Washburn's Mt. Fayerweather party. Alexander A Mackenzie, radio enthusiast, has been hutmaster at Pinkham Notch for the Appalachian Mountain Club. S. Pagliuca, electrical engineer, is thoroughly familiar with the White mountains, and last summer was in i charge of the Galehead hut. of the Appalachian Mountain system. The New Hampshire Academy ol Sciences is sponsoring the expedition and the Blue Hill observatory | of Harvard university is supplying most of the weather instruments , and supervising the meteorological i program.

—Map by Science Service. L\;j Brirnrr Servin’ WASHINGTON. Oct. 12.—The vast submarine canyons found during the summer in surveys by the United States coast and geodetic survey have been mapped. The least is deeper than the Yellowstone canyon and the greatest must be comparable with the grand canyon of the Colorado. They already have been put to use by some trans-Atlantic liners as "landmarks” to guide the vessels safely over the dangers of Georges bank. When a recording sonic depth finder shows the gorges in their expected positions, the pilot is assured that he is exactly on the right course.

WOLL’S GROUP BACKS WATSON; LABOR ANGRY Attempt Will Be Made to Unseat A. F. of L. VicePresident at Parley. Bv Berlppo-Hnirnril V rtrip/jprr Alliin''* WASHINGTON. Oct. 12. • A dorm is expected to break at the November convention of the Amercan Federation of Labor that may jnseat, the federation's most active vice-president. Mathew Woll, as resolutions committee chairman. The latest count against Woll romes as the result of a discovery that the high tariff lobby, called America's Wage Earner's Protective Conference, of which Woll is president, is aiding the cause of certain of the senate's anti-labor members in their campaigns for reelection. In a radio speech M. J. Flynn, the “conference” secretary, urged the re-election of Senator James E. Watson of Indiana. At the same time the Federation of Labor is urging Watson’s defeat because of his vote to seat, Judge Parker of “yellow-dog” contract fame. Nine days after President William Green issued a letter to Utah unions urging the defeat of Senator Reed Smoot on the same ground, a counter-plea was sent out by Wolls organization and signed by Flynn urging Smoot's re-election. This move brought forth a demand from Utah workers that Green repudiate the WollFlynn indorsement. Os Idaho’s senator, Flynn wrote: “Senator John Thomas’ record indicates that he has worked for and supported the wishes of the American Federation of Labor at ail times.” Idaho unions fought Thomas in the primary, and are fighting him now on his senate record. To an Idaho unionist, Flynn also wrote ' that a senate vote on , the confirmation of Judge Parker was not a labor teat, inasmuch as the A. F. of L. had taken no action against senate supporters of Parker. President Green must decide beI fore the coming convention at Cincinnati in latter November whether i he wall rename Woll.

- Photo bv Srtence Service. Swinging Metal Roof Pi/ Kcieni’t Perrier ALBANY. N. Y„ Oct. 12.—A novel sheet metal swinging roof is being used over grain elevators here. The long ribbons of steel hang 140 feet between sides of the building as a grapevine swing might loop from tree to tree in the forest. It is claimed that this novel, selfsupporting roof, without columns, stanchions or purlins common to other types, is more economical than the usual kind. The strips of steel, which are slightly more than four feet wide, were welded together by the Lincoln Electric Company. More than 400 tons of metal were used.
