PAGE SIX THE i ... CAPITAL, JOUKWAL, SALEM. OREGON MONDAY, MAY 1, 1922. PROBERS READY TO REPORT UPON IRNNI Washington, May 1. (By As soclated Press.) The conclusion , that la the public Interest the railroad Industry must rest ou its own foundation and Its revenues must be bo constructively regulat ed that the operations of the car riers "will produce enough to pay fair wages, cost of materials, taxes, meet the fixed charges, pay a fair dividend, and leave a margin to attract investors of new capital," was announced today by the Joint congressional commission of agri cultural industry. This conclusion, reached by the commission after a study ot rail road management and financing will be set forth in the forthcom ing report of the body along with other conclusions and recom ' mendatlons as follows: First, that the issue of tax free securities and large expenditures for non-productive purposes by the federal, state and municipal gov ernments be reduced to the small est possible limits so that the taxes can be decreased and capital funds be allowed to Increase for the use at a fair Interest rates by agricul ture, Industry and the railroads and thereby help to promote In dustry. Second, that the railroads estab lish competent traffic executives and organize public relations de partments to bring about closer contact and better understanding between themselves and the public. Third, that new money for rail roads Improvements should not bt raised through constant govern ment aid. Fourth, that sound railroad finance requires that a larger part of the credit necessary for railway construction be obtained by stock Issues Instead of by bond issues.

ONGE GIVES CYCLISTS ADVICE FAMOUS CAR DRIVEN BY KS IN AUTO RACE PICTURE Fred St. Onge, America's fore most exponent of bicycle riding, gives some valuable advice on chooBlng, equipping and adjusting a bicycle. In the selection of a bicycle, he states, whether the rider is choos ing his first bicycle or is a seas oned user of this highly beneficial vehicle and has owned several wheels, he should exercise the greatest care in making sure the career on bicycle he finally picks out is one in every way fitted to his (or herl Individual physical requirements. A bicycle with a frame too high or too low for the rider's stature, or one mat is geared too high, or In his Initial feature length starring vehicle, " 'Burn 'Em Up' Barnes," an exciting automobile racing story that will come to the Liberty theater next Sunday, Johnny (Torchy) Hlues drove one of the most famous racing cars In the east. The automobile, which was built especially for Ray Howard, the famous speedster, bogan its the eastern tracks and won several grand prizes. Later It was entered In the famous Shoepshead Bay race, where in the course of a trial spin, the gas tank caught fire and the entire body of the machine ruined, the AL, G. BARNES BIG CIRCUS OFFERS POPULAR PRICES one whose saddle or handlebars ('rlver an h's mechanician having are sadly in need of adjustment, naturally results In an awkward and uncomfortable riding posture and detracts greatly from the otherwise perfect pleasure of bi cycling. It must be borne In mind that the only motive or driving power that manipulates a bicycle is that of the legs and feet. This power therefore should be conserved and made to produce maximum re sults from minimum effort. To got the proper helTht, says St. Onge, the rider should stand beside bis bicycle and adjust the saddle on a level with his hips. Then sit In the saddle, having the crank hanger at its lowest point. In this position, the rider should be able to touch the pedal with his heel, the leg being bent slight ly at the knee. The front end or nose of the saddle should be on a Una direct ly with the cranks when they are perpendicular. The Baddle never should be sut more than one inch back of this line. A natural, comfortable riding position is promoted by having the handlebars adjusted to a point practically level with the saddle. The handlebars should not be spread wider than the shoulders of the rider. The rider In subjected to a severe handicap If this mount Is adjusted out of these limitations, and riding then becomes laborious and difficult, especially agRlnat a strong head wind and over hilly country roads. In other words with the saddle set back of the center of the crank banger and the handlebars higher than they should be. pleasure be comes hard work and no progress can be made. narrow escapes. The automobile was overhauled and rebuilt and entered the big race at Indianapo lis, during which It overturned on a curve, breaking Mr. How ard's legs and killing the mechani cian. Howard again rebuilt it and entered it at the Allontown dirt track race, which he won, and later repeated the performance several other meets. Johnny Mines says thut it is the best car in the world, except his, and he onght to know since he drove it at a sev enty mile an hour clip for a good ly part Of a day during the film ing of the racing scenes. " "Burn, 'Em Up' Barnes" is i whirlwind automobile racing story, packed with thrills, hearty laughter and heart Interest, or which Raymond L. Schrock is the author, and was directed by Geo. A. lleranger. Betty Carpenter Is the leading woman, and the cast Includes Edmund Breese, George Fawcett, J. Barney Sherry, Mat thew Betts, Dorothy Leeds, Julia Swayne Gordon and others. Back to a pre-war basis! That's the slogan on the Al G. Barnes circus this season. "The show that's different" in perform ance is aitferent in every way. and thats why the general admis sion to the big show has been re duced to 76 cents for adults and 50 cents for children. Thus, the people of the United States can se( 1S00 trained wild animals, some 1000 talented people and the most distinctive performance ever of fered under a big top at a reduc tion of 4 5 per cent ot the former admission. Seventy-five cents for adults; fifty cents for children. These are the admission prices for your city No more, no less.
