The bill passed the Sen ate at the last session, but wus lost In the House owing to the pressure of war matters and the congestion which developed during the closing weeks. It is believed, however, that a .lurge majority of the members favor Its adoption. . In an Interview today, Major Gen eral William SI, Block said: "The Poindexter bill Is a long step In the right direction. The abuses connected with railway freight rates first attracted my attention In connee tlon with army work. In fact, there Is no question but what the present railroad tariffs constitute one of the grossest Impositions ever' practiced in this country. "The tariffs for freight are still based upon the old principle of charg ing all that the traffic will bear, n relic of the days of unregulated mo nopoly. The railroads have practical ly driven woter transportation out of business in many parts of the coun try, by making low cut rates at com petitive points where water carriers were trying to do business. Then they made up the losses by overcharg ing in other localities where there was no such competition. The system wos a distinctly selfish one devised for the greater prosperity of the railroads nnd Involved tho exercise of autocratic powers which do not rightfully belong to common carriers of goods. "Water transportation can he re vived In many parts of the United States as a result of proper regulation of railway freight charges. There are many 'classes of freight which might profitably be sent by water to the benefit of the railroads them Scarcity of Wood Cutters In Valley "From present Indications there Is grave danger of a wood shortage next winter unless more cutters can he secured," remarked A. E. Maneely manager of the Clayton Orchards, who was in Ashland this week adver tising for wood cutters to assist him at hlg wood lot. "Up to the present d have not half as much wood cut this season- as I had at this time last year, and It seems Impossible to get men." Mr. Maneely stated that there Is no shortage of wood in the moun tains but the difficulty lies In get ting it cut. Good wages are paid and the men have comfortable ac commodations, but wood cutters are at a premium In this vicinity Just now. While this branch of labor Is not particularly difficult for those -who understand it, not many men seem to desire to follow it as an oc cupation Just now. Tho lure of the ship yards and factories have called so many men from this section in the past that home industries have suffered.
