in railway policies, and there might be no constant policy continuing through the changes of administrations. These questions were raised by Senator Cummins of Iowa, and Smith of South Carolina. Another objection was that if the railroads are guaranteed by law an adequate return, they should not also have power to determine rates, even though these rates were subject to veto by the secretary of transportation and notification by the interstate commerce commission. Mr. Cuyler argued that the advantage of having one man as the principal government supervising agency is that he would act more quickly than a commission in opproving or disapproving rates proposed by railroads and would expedite general matters of railroad administration.

Long Controversy Over Operation of U. S. Troops.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10. Operation of American troops In Itussia

was rterended ana criticizea inursday in the senate, half a dozen senators participating n a debate which continued several hours. ;en. Hitchcock, chairman of the foreign relations committee, opposed the discussion ly- delivering a pre-pared speech In leply to recent addresses of gens. Johifson of California and Lafollctte of Wisconsin, republicans, who had sharply criticised retention of American soldiers on Russian soli. Sen. Hitchcock and Sens. Swanson of Virginia and iinz of Utah, democrats, defended the administration' course. Chairman Hitchcock Justified sending troops Into Hussia, de

nounced the bolshevik government as pro-German and declared that the expeditions in both northern Russia and Liberia were purely defensive and entirely friendly to the loyal Russian people. Reports of lighting by American forces in Russia have been "grossly exaggerated," Sen. Hitchcock declared, as only 126 Americans have been killed t-iuce the landing at Archangel. From Vladivostok to tho Ural mountains, he paid, there has been no righting for months and the inter-aliied forces have been received by the Russian people with "open arms." Opposes Intervention. Sen. Rorah, in reply, opposed any intervention with Russian internal affairs. Without criticising the. sending of troops to Russia, Sen Borah said retention of American forces there now is justified only in holding military stores from the Germans or In carrying out the general purposes of the war against Germany. Sen. Rorah said Russia should bo permitted to work out her own governmental affairs, and he joined with .Sen. Johnson in demanding an oifioial statement from the administration regarding its plans and pur-

poses In Russia. j ,cn. Swanson, in defending the 1 administration's course, cited I'res't j Wilson's statement in his 14 peac? principles and declarations in the ! uriuistice terms imposed on Gcr- ' many as assurances .that America is j friendly to the Russia people, and I that Russian territorial and political J integrity and independence are assured.
