ADOPTION OF PLUMB PLAN DISASTER, SAYS OLIVER BOGUE, FORMER P R. OFFICER

"Glenn. R. Plumbs la not the origin-1 ator of the so-calldd Plumb system, and I do not think he should be given all the publicity he la getting," said Oliver P. Bogue, focmerly an official of the 'Rock Island Railroad, Friday. "I feel confident that no such plan will ever be jcarried out in this country. "The ajiitem whieh Mr. Plumb la attempting 'to Institute was originated In California two years ago. It Is neither practicable, reasonable nor sane.

i certainly no trace of evidence that 'Plumb knows anything about rall- ' roads. He i aimply a lawyer," declared Bogue. "Managing a railroad system requires a natural talent, long years of experience and knowledge and application of skill. A railroad manager requires just as. much skill as a surgeon. Would All Be Managers "If the employes who want to manage the railroads were capable they would now all be railroad managers because there hat; been a dearth in railroad heads lh the last few years and all who are stifled could easily get jobs. "Mr. Hines is a very bright man end a good lawyer but not a railroad man. Mr. McAdoo is a good personal friend of mine. I lived across the street from him for frve years. ' He Is splendid, contractor and an expert t laying tunnels under rivers, butf he knew nothing about ttallroada. A man cannot be appointed to be a surgeon, neither, can he be appointed to direct e railroad system. '.'Furthermore' said Mr. Bogue, "the man who successfully runs a railroad la California : might not be able to run one in Georgia or Connecticut. They are eucessfully managed in different parts of the couintry in different ways. Also men have) sucessfully run one railroad and faildd completely on another." Administration .Disastrous "Govermnient administration of railroads has involved tlL country la an enormous dabL Freight is bad. Transportation is $ cents a mile instead o f. r.onts.

It is immaterial to the government. " Bogue declared that government ownership of railroads in France, Germany and other European countries was not successful' as they have never had such service ila we have had and each year there is a great de&cit. "In time," saiU Bogue, "under government ownership in the United Grand Cjrcv.it Besames After Two Days9 Lay-Off PHILADELPHIA, ' Apg. 15 The grand circuit racing at Belmont track was resumed today after two postponements, owing to raih and a heavy track. The postponements will carry the meeting over to Saturday, and Secretary Saunders na arranged a two days program that is claimed to be one of the biggest cards and largest amount of money ever raced for in !two days a6 a grand circuit meeting. Five events were listed for today, the William Penn stake for two year old trotters, purse $2,000; the Nawbeek stock farm stake for three year old trotters, purse $2,000; the Bull's head bazaar stake for 2:16 trotters, purse $2,000; the Bellevue-Stratford

lil nnft nnrt tho nnpn class for 2:13

trotters, purse $1,000. The management plans to hold as many of the remaining events on the original program as possible on Saturday, including the $5,000 Winoga stock farm stake for 2:11 trotters and the special event for trotting teams with eight entries and a purse of $1,000.

8tates our system of railroads would be in the same condition as those in European countries and under the management of employes as advocated by Plumb it would even be worse." "I feel confident that no such plan will ever be carried out In thds country. In the first place the government does not have the money to buy up all the railroads and in the second place under the Plumb plan there would be no men who would successfully manage the roads." GHENOWETH GO. TO TRAIN CHAUFFEURS FOR 'PLANE FLYING

The Theatres

WASHINGTON. The most stupendous and dramatic picture of Norma Talmadge's long list ol screen successes will be seen on Friday and Saturday at the Washington theatre, when Joseph M. Schenck presents Miss Talmadge in her latest Select picture, "The New Moon." A story of Russia, Russia and its men, women and children cold Russia with its people of warm hearts Russia where inner troubles are continually brooding and happiness Is hard to find a human story of human people who love and hate, err and laugh that Is the story of "The Moon." It is more like a beautiful fairy tale than anything else. It is so vividly true that it smacks of unreallsm. A beautiful Russian princess disguises herself as a peasant girl, while she seeks protection from the anarchists who are trying to run the town. When the women of the country are ordered to register so as to be nationalized, she leads them to revolt. She opens their eyes to the true meaning of Russian nationalization. They will be come the wives of any man who wants them. Free love will govern the country. Marriage rites will cease to exist. The authorities discover the true character of the peasant girl who is leading the women to revolt and attempt to force her to register. Her fiance, from whom she was separated In her flight from the castle, has joined the band. o anarchists in the hope of. discovering the whereabouts of his lost sweetheart. He sees her in the arms of his leader, who is trying to force her to register, and believes the worst. Later, explanations follow, and like all fairy stories, the good people are rewarded and the bad ones punished. It is not a war picture and there are no war scenes In it. It is a charming story of a beautiful Princess whose heart was with her people. Timely, thrilling, absorbing, full of life and ac tion, this tale of Russia will appeal to all classes. In "The New Moon" Miss Talmadge is given an excellent opportunity to display that remarkable versatility for which 6he has become famous.. As the Russian Princess she is proud, beauti ful and gorgeously dressed. Decked in resplendent jewels, silks and vel vets, she is truly a wondrously beauti ful member of the royal house of Russia. Later, as a peasant girl, in coarse, ill-flting clothes, and shawled head, Miss Talmadge lends atmosphere and realism to the role. No longer does she wear slippers with jeweled buckles, but heavy gaiters no longer a diamond tiara on her head, but a shawl of coarse, woolen material, and while pride is imbedded deep down in her ca t Today r and Tomorrow D

From the "upper crust" to the underwork to get the girl he loved! From visions of orange blossoms, rice and tuneful strains to the cold reality of rattling "bracelets," cold stteel bars and the "tuneful strains" of "You're pinched! Put on yorar hat and come along!" Why did this son of the elite choose to marry a girl who lived on the Bowery? Why did he resort to thievery when, at the worst, he had been but a thief of time.
