THERE is something mighty democratic
about rich, sappy tobacco. Now that men
have W-B CUT Chewing, tt good tobacco,
to lend each other, it cements friendship. Common-sense
about tobacco is getting mighty gen
eral now no one wants the over sweetened kind
when he can get rich tobacco shredded and
lightly salted to bring out the good tobacco
taste.

RAILROAD SITUATION
IS NOW LARGELY
UP TO CONGRESS
Mast Shire Risponslbillly In
Future Development.
ROBERT S. LOVETT S VIEWS
"Unification of Rtgulatlon U EtitntUI."
A CompUU, Harmonious, ConiltUnt
and Ralattd Syittm Needad -Fadtral
Incorporation of Rallroadi by Centr
al Law Favored.
Washington, March 20. Responsibil
ity for the railway development of tho
country, for providing necessary trans
portation facilities to enro for the grow
ing business and population of tho
country, now rests largely with con
gress and not entirely with tho rail
road managers. This was the state
ment of Judgo Robert S. tavctt, chair
man of the executive committee of tho
Union PaclUc system, to tho Ncwhiuds
Joint congressional committee when
that body resumed Its Inquiry Into
the subject of railroad regulation this
week.
In making this statement of the
changed conditions of tho railroad sit
uation Judge Lovctt undoubtedly had
In mind the decision of the supreme
court on the Adamson law, handed
down last week, which establishes tho
right of the federal government to fix
railroad wages and to prevent strikes.
This decision is regarded by railroad
men and lawyers as marking an epoch
hi the development of truniortatlon
In the United States.
"We have our share of responsibil
ity," said Judge Lorctt, "but It rests
primarily ou congress. When the gov
ernment regulates the rates and the
financial administration of the rail
roads, the borrowing of money and tho
Issuance of securities it relieves the
railroad officers of the responsibility of
providing and developing transporta
tion systems, except within the limits
of the revenue that can be realized from
such rates and under such restrictions.
"For u countrv such as ours, for a
people situated as we are, to blunder
along with a merles of unrelated, Incon
sistent, conflicting statutes enacted by
different states without relation to
each other, instead of providing a com.
pletc and carefully studied and pre
pared system of regulation for a busi
ness that Is so vital t the life of the
nation. Is worse than folly."
He Hummed up the present problems
and dUlleull les of the railroads us fol
lows:" Firht. The multiplicity of regular
lions l.y the several etutcs with respect
to the issue of securities, Involving de
lays and conflicting state policies gen
erally dangerous and possibly disastrous.
Second. The state regulation of
rates in Mich u maimer as to unduly
i educe revenues, l discriminate in fa
vor of localities and shippers within
its own borders as against localities
mid shippers in other states and to dls-
iurb mid disarrange the Mruclure of
Interstate rates.
Tblrd.-Tlie Inability of the Inter--tale
Commerce Commission, whoever
the commissioners may be. lo perform
the vast duties devolving upon It un
der existing laws, resulting In delay
which should never occur In commer
cial matters and compelling the com
missioners to accept the conclusions of
their employees as flnul In deciding
matters of great Importance to the
commercial and rallrpad interests of
the country.
Fourth. The practical legality that
has been accoided conspiracies to tie
up and suspend the operation of the
railroads of the country by strikes and
violence nnd the absence of any law
to compel the settlement of such dis
putes by arbitration or other judicial
means, as nil other Issues between citi
zens iu civilized states are to be settled.
Fifth. Tho -phenomenal increase In
the taxation of railroads In recent
years.
Sixth. The cumulative effect of
these conditions upon the Investing
public, to which' railroad companies
must look for the capital necessary to
continue development.
"We bellevo that tho unification of
tategulutlon is essential," said Judge
Lovett, "and that witn tue raptu in
crease of stute commissions In recent
years congress will .in time bo com
pelled to exercise its power In tho
premises. To unify rtgulatlo6 thcro
should be a complete, harmonious, con
sistent and related system. We be
llevo the best, if not the only practical
plan, is the federal Incorporation of
railroad by general law, which wilt
make Incorporation thereunder com
pulsory, thus Imposing on all railroad
rompank's throughout, the United
States (lie same corporate fiowera anil
restrictions with respect to their finan
cial operations and tho same duties
and obligations to the public and the
government, so that every Investor will
know precisely what every railroad
corporation may and may not lawfully
do."
Judgo Lovett contended thai the bo
lutlon of these problems and difficul
ties rested with congress. He told the
committeo that under the constitution
the authority of tho federal govern
ment Is paramount, that congress has
tho power to legislate for u centralized
control of nillrouds under federal char
ters and that It on'.v remains for tlm
body to exercise tin I power
