LABOR TO SHARE PROFITS
Judge Anderson's Plan Would Make
. Strikes Illegal; Lenroot Asks
for One PiiTale Line.
WASHINGTON. A us. ST. Railroad
reorganisation under a plan combining
"the most drsirable factors" of both
government and private ownership and
operation was offered today as a solu
tion of the railroad problem by Judgs
eorsje W. Anderson of the I'nlted
tilates district court. Boston, a former
member of the Interstate commerce
rommtion. who appeared before the
house Interstate commerce committee.
Formation of a federal railway com
pany, with broad powers, including em
inent domain, to take over existing
transportation facilities, so as to pro
vide "a siniile national highway and
carrier ystem." was advocated by
Judge Anderson, who admitted his plan
contained no element not already pre
sented In essence, but was a combina
tion of elements that "is radically new."
Labor would, by the proposals of the
witness, have a new status and respon
sibility. Including profit sharing, but
strikes would be Illegal. Along with
capital and the public, labor would have
equal representation on the board of
directors selected to manage the roads.
Rates would be initiated on the servlce-at-cost
principle by the federal com
pany, subject to approval of the Inter
state commerce commission; states
would deal with purely local questions,
such as commutation rates, improve
ments and safety precautions.
Owaera Boaaa te Be Aaaane.
Present owners of the carriers, by
his plan, would be protected in that all
valid and properly outstanding bonds
would be assumed by the federal com
pany and guaranteed by the : vern
nirnt. and stockholders in regular dividend-paying
companies would be per
mitted to exchange their holdings on a
basts not exceeding the return during
federal control, while others wouldi
have due process of law. Stockholders
in the new company. Judge Anderson
proposed, would have an incentive for
efficiency, economy and progress by
authorising a dividend In excess of the
standard one and pro-rata issues of
new stock at par.
Public interests, he said, could be in
sured against undue capitalization by
limiting a majority of capital In the
new company to bonds, issued at the
lowest available interest rate. Stock
certificates on the federal company he
proposed should contain provision that
they might be taken over at any time
by the government at par and the ac
crued standard dividend.
War-Time eatrol Deferred.
Uovernment control of the railroads
during the war was deferred by Judge
Anderson, who asserted that under such
control there was "less failure in the
railroad business than In any other big
Industry, a statement which he said
he recognized was "Inconsistent witn
public sentiment."
Several representatives of railroad
appearing before the committee urged
that equipment purchased by the rail
road administration at war prices be
sold to the companies when the roads
were returned at reduced prices. t
la the senate a bill was Introduced
by Senator Lenroot. republican. Wis
consin, providing for unification of the
railroads Into one privately-owned sys
tem with minimum earnings guaranteed
and management shared by the security
holders, public and employes.

WESTERN UNION IS. SUED
Salem Farmer Alleges Mistake in
Message Cost Him $200.
SALEM, Or.. Au(r. 27. (Special.)
Charg-lnff that the Western Inion corn
puny substituted the word "cars" for
"oats" and thereby caused him heavy
loss in the sale of his crop, Phillip
Stortz today filed suit against the cor
poration to recover damages in the
sum of J263.55.
Mr. Stortz alleges that he sent a tele
gram from Salem to Walcott, Ind.,
ordering his oat crop sold at the run
ning market price. The recipient of
the message found that the instruc
tions pertained to cars and wrote to
Salem for instructions. In the mean
time. Mr. Stortz says, the price of oats
dropped from 81 to 65 cents a bushel,
thereby causing him loss of more than
200.
Enlisted "Man With Dishonorable
Discharge Is Hounded by
Army, Is Charge.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 27. Samuel T.
Ansell. formerly acting judge advocate
general of the army, told a senate
comittee today that Secretary Baker,
General March, cbief-of-araff ; Major
General Crowder, judge advocate-general,
and other general officers placed
deliberate obstacles in his way when
he sought to obtain clemency for sol
diers given harsh sentences. The com
mittee is considering a bill by Senator
Chamberlain for changes in the mili
tary justice system.
When he first made a report on the
subject of reform in the sysWem in 1917,
Ansell said he was relieved imme
diately "with the knowledge, if not
the suggestion, of Secretary Baker,
from all duties relating to military
justice."
"The truth is," said Mr. Ansell, "that
they did not like my liberal views. Of
course they won't say it. but the facts
speak louder than words."
Curt Repllea Reeelvnl.
When he had opportunity later as
acting judge advocate-general to re
view court-martial sentences and sant
clemency recommendations, Ansell said
frequently he received curt . " replies
amounting to Tnind your own busi
ness.
Secretary Baker later Issued a gen
eral order, prohibiting the judge ad
vocate-general from making clemency
recommendations, he said, but added
that in numerous cases when he was in
charge of the office in the absence of
General Crowder he disregarded this
order.
After the armistice, Mr. Ansell stated,
army punishments, especially in camps
in this country, became more severe.
At Camp Dix in particular, he said, pun
ishments were "shocking.
When he reported these conditions to
General Crowder. Mr. Ansell said, the
judge advocate-general said he was
reluctant to act because he feared it
might be construed as "an impeachment
of the system of military justice."
Offirera' Treatment Dlffrrrmt.
"Between the treatment of the cases
of officers and enlisted men there is a
world-wide difference," said Mr. Ansell,
replying to a question.
The witness said that when officers
were dismissed it was difficult enough
for them to "come back," but that in
the case of the enlisted man who re
ceives a dishonorable discharge his re
habllitation was practically impossible.
"We follow the man with a dishonor
able discharge wherever he goes," An
sell said. "We give him his yellow sheet
and wherever he goes we try to keep
him from getting a job. These punish
ments are life-long. Wherever the army
is known his efforts at rehabilitation
are met."

R0CKP1LE WORK URGES
SHERIFF TO PRESS DEMAND TO
REOPEX KELLY BUTTE QUARRY
Mr
in
Hurlbnrt Contends Labor
Open Air Will Give Captives Op
portunity to Be Useful.
Federal aa well as county and city
prisoners could be used on the Kelly
Butte rockplle if it la put in commis
sion in compliance with the wishes of
Sheriff Hurlburt, according to word re
ceived by that official yesterday from
United States Attorney Haney. In
previous years it has not been thought
possible to use the men held in the
county jail on federal charges for
breaking rock.
At the next meeting of the county
commissioners Sheriff Hurlburt will
press his request for permission to re
open the rock quarry and if refused
will ask for specific reasons. If a re
fusal is based on the fear that a few
favored county employes may lose
berths at Kelly Butte, a strenuous pro
test will be lodged.
that the cost of erecting a stockade at
the Butte will be negligible, as he can
have It put up by prison labor, using
trusties now on duty in the county jail.
He said lie did not know the amount of
work necessary to place the rock crush
er again In commission, as it has been
neglected for several years, But that
he thought the cost would not 'be ex
orbitant.
The re-opening of the quarry will be
a profitable move for the county, con
tends the sheriff, as the cost oi opera
tion will scarcely exceed Jl a yard for
rock produced, all of which can be
sold to city and private contractors at
11.40 a yard and higher. City Commis
sioner Barbur has informed the county
commissioners that the city paving
plant will be able to use at least ISO
yards of crushed rock a week from the
quarry.-
"Numerous private contractors are
behind in their work because they have
been unable to get rock," said Sheriff
Hurlburt yesterday. "1 think there will
be ample demand for crushed rock to
Justify opening the quarries, if the
matter is to be considered solely from
a standpoint of economy.
"The quarry should be more than
self-supporting. But it is not to make
money that I would like the quarry
opened. It is to preserve the health
of the prisoners. There is nothing bet
ter for them than hours of labor in the
open air daily. It is far better than
confinement in close cells, and though
arduous, it is something the men them
selves desire.
"When Kelly Butte was closed about
three years ago, those who regretted
it most were the prisoners who had
been assigned to work there. There is
more chance to make a useful citizen
out of a man who has been at healthy
labor daily in the open air than out o
a man who has been confined in the
close quarters of a Jail 24 hours out of
the day.
