Hines Announces Wheat Will Be Handled as Emergency Freight and Get Preference. IXDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. Oct. 16. Re turn of the railroads to private own ership not later than December 31, 1919, is urged in a resolution adopted by the National Association of Rail way and Utilities commissioners at the closing: session of its annual con - ventlon today. The resolution states, however, that the transition should be made with as little disturbance as possible and with this end in view recommends that the existing interstate and intrastate rates, passenger and freight, initiated by the director-general be continued in force for a period not beyond July 19, 1921. The association also proposed sev eral principles for consideration of congress in connection with remedial legislation now pending. These prin ciples include the following! That provision be made for prompt merger of all carriers' lines into a unified system in times of stress or emergency, and the merger within proper limits of the line and facili ties to such an extent as may be nec essary in the public interest to meet the reasonable demands of the coun try's domestic and foreign commerce. That railroad construction be lim ited to the necessities and conven ience of the public. That securities of Interstate lines be under the control of the govern ment. Rail and Water Co-ordinated. That development of inland water ways and co-ordination of rail and water transportation systems be en couraged. That a transportation board be created to study rail, water and high way , transportation conditions, the function of which would be wholly advisory and the findings of which , would be reported to the interstate commerce commission. That federal incorporation of rail roads should not be required or per mitted. That in view of the "inherent social and practical objections to the es tablishment of a definite guaranteed return to private service corpora tions." such provision should not be included in the laws. With respect to wage controversies the association went on record as favoring the development of some plan for the final disposition of such disputes. . The resolution stated the associa tion's belief that the responsibility of capital and labor was equal and that rates should be established on a basis which would permit payment of iust wages to employes. Public serv ice, it was declared, should not be jeopardized by strikes and lockouts. CHICAGO, Oct. IS. Walker E. Hines, director of railroads, today held a series of conferences with the heads of western roads and officials of the United States grain corpora tion, at which plans were discussed for the movement of the large wheat crop from the southwest to the mar kets of the east. Mr. Hines announced that wheat would have to be handled as emer gency freight and given preference over other traffic until normal condi tions are restored. "The trouble is due largely to the fact that the elevators were filled and could not take the wheat," said Mr. Hines. "In view of this there was no use in bringing it to market. There are two prominent factors in the sit uation. One of them is that there are not enough carS and the other is that the business offered is far In excess of the normal. The movement of freight this year is much larger than it was last year and last year was marked by an extraordinary large movement." Before leaving for Duluth, "Mr. Hines discussed the government's plans for returning the railroads to their owners December 31. "There has been no qualification whatever of the president's announce ment made in his message to congress last May, that the railroads will be handed back to their owners at the end of this calendar year," he said. "The railroad administration is mak ing all its plans to this effect with a view of making the transfer back to private management at thatr date with the least possible disturbance of the public service. To this end we are co-operating actively in every practicable way with the representa tives of the railroads." DENNIS HAYES PROMOTED Appointment to Captaincy in Re serve Corps Announced.
