Ho RAILROADS GIVE PLANS FOR THEIR OPERATION [Continued from First l'age.] i reasonableness and adequacy of rates and concerning discriminations. To Fix Rates "No new or branch lines of rail road or largo ard expensive termi nals should be constructed unless a certificate of public convenience and necessity Is first obtained from the Secretary of Transportation. The executive and administrative func tions of tho Interstate Commerce Commission, except as to account ing and as to Federal valuation of railroad properties, should be trans ferred to the Secretary of Transpor tation. "The carriers should have the power to initiate rates, schedules of which should be filed with the Inter state Commerce Commission with the Secretary of Transportation and with the state commissions in which the rates are applicable. "The Secretary of Transportation might approve the rates, let them go into effect without approval, or sus pend them and refer them to the Interstate Commerce Commission for determination# The commission might also hear complaints by ship pers or others, and have authority to prescribe minimum as well as maximum rates." Mr. Cuyler's statement specified that "tho statute itself should pro vide the rule of rate-making, and should require that rates be not only what has been called reasonable, but adequate and sufficient to enable the carriers to provide safe, adequate and sufficient service, to protect ex isting investment and to attract the new capital necessary in tlie public interest." It was declared further that "the statute should provide that existing rates, put into effect by the Director General of Railroads, should be con tinued in effect until changed by the Interstate Commerce Commission as provided by law," or through initia tion of new rates by roads. Express rates should be dealt with in the same manner as freight rates. Hate Tribunals Regional Federal rate tribunals, said Mr. Cuyler. might be created in | this manner: The Interstate Com , merce Commission should divide the i United States into a number of re | glons, for each of which the Presi- I dent should appoint a regional com i mission, which should be a board of : primary jurisdiction, consisting of I one member for each state in the ; region. The regional commissions should have authority to determine all complaints and to report to the I interstate Cmtnerce Commission. If ! no objection is made to the Interstate ' Commerce Commission within a lim- I ited time and the commission does ! not overrule the lower tribunal, the ' orders and findings of the regional i commissions should automatically ! go into effect. The railroad executives' plan pro | vides for Federal incorporation of I interstate carriers for Government ' supervision of security issues, and : for funding by Government railroad I indebtedness growing out of Federal control during the war. llroad supeivisory powers should ! be granted the Secretary of Trans ! portation, said Mr. Cuyler. These | would include authority to require i rerouting of traffic to prevent or I eliminate congestion, to require com | mon use of terminals, to compel complete unification in war times or ] other periods of national emergency, j to require roads to distribute c3rs among patrons fairly and to other | roads to provide for proper move | ment of traffic. Mergers or consoli- I dations, inter-company agreements I on rates or practices, pooling of fa ! cilities, and pooling of earnings in I connection with elimination of un- I necessary train service, should be ! subject to his approval, according to i the railroad plan. The Interstate i Commerce Commission would re ! eelve appeals In case of dlsagree ! ment between a road and the Secre- I tary of Transportation.

Since the young man's illness is imaginary, that surely is not an obstacle to your marriage. But if he has the worrying habit or for any reason lacks the courage to undertake married life, I think that| if you do not actually give him up, | you should at least postpone your engagement to him until he is in a more normal and wholesome frame : of mind.

HXRRISBURG TELEGRAPH CLARK E.DIEHL TO LEAVE POSTAL CO. Asks to Bo Relieved lo Devote Entire Attention to City Electrician Office CLARK E. DIEHL ! Clark K. Diehl, head of the Postal | Telegraph Company in Harrisburg for | 1 many years, lias asked to be relieved j | of his managerial duties for that com- | pany in order to devote/himself ex-' I clusivcly to his duties as city elec-| I trician. which oftlce be lias lt'eid for I j nearly a quarter century. I "f don't know when I will be free," I •said Mr. Diehl to-day, "but I have | asked the company to relieve me as 1 I soon as is convenient. The work ofl I both the Postal and the city at this : point is growing rapidly and afteii i j many years of activity I feel that I I would like to have a little more! i leisure. The office of city electrician ' I has grown with the growth of the I city and will give me ample to oc-| | cupy my entire attention." j Mr. Diehl is one of the most expert 1 police and fire alarm men in the coun ! try, being frequently called to other i cities to straighten out their difficul j ties. He is head of the national or | ganization and is considered one of 'the leading authorities on the sub ject. , a: KEYSTONE DIVISION MEN TO RETURN [Continued from First Page.] j Xinety-flrst and now are in the I.e ] Mans embarkation area with tltat di | vision, and will sail within a short time. ; Private advices from the front say the Twenty-eighth Division was un- I der orders now to move into the em | barkation area, but probably would | not be able .to sail before March 1, 1 Colonel Coulter said no state could be prouder of its soldiers than Penn | sylvania. "I refer to all classes," he I said. "I mean that all men, whether | they came from the ranks of the Na tional Guard, the Regular Army or | the draft, fought equally well. "The Twenty-eighth Division was ! cited four times for bravery and gal ! lantry In action. Once the citation | was given by the French and three ! times by the American General Head j quarters. The Twenty-eighth earned j the right to be called shock troops a ! few hours after they were under I fire." | Colonel Coulter said the reason of j Peers and men of the Twenty-eighth j Division felt General Pershing would ! send them home soon was that they were now on duty with the Army of ' Occupation. "According to the way officers and men dope it out on the other side," said Colonel Coulter, "the regiments now with the Army of Occupation will be relieved presently,, and then they expect to return as victorious troops should. Most of the units in the Army of Occupation were those that bore the brunt of the fighting for the Americans. The men feel, therefore, there is something in tile reports that the commands now with the Army of Occupation will be sent home by early > spring, their work be ing taken over by other units less active in front. Colonel Coulter's home is in Greensburg, Pa., and his brother, Brigadier General Richard Coulter, was recently commander of the French port of Havre. On December 1 he was transferred to other duties, Colonel Coulter said. Colonel Coulter served both, with the One Hundred and Ninth and One Hundred and Tenth Infantry IJegi nients. He said that after ( Colonel telieved of command of the One Hun- i George K. Kemn, of Philadelphia, was dred and Tentli that regiment had a succession of commanders. They in cluded Colonels Thompson and Wind ship and he said that his old outfit was getting another "spread eagle" 9 he was sailing. 'CONFERENCE IS TO BE HELD SHORTLY [Continued from First Page. ] out that the committee will be com posed of the premiers and foreign ministers of the allies, Mr. 'Wilson figuring as American premier. As regards questions concerningj enemy countries, It is understood that i those concerning Germany will be! taken up first, then those of Austria- > Hungary, and Anally those of Bui-] garia and Turkey. These details, j however, probably will not be decid- ! ed upon until the league of nations { part of the program has been ex- j hausted. Peace May Be hist Step It is not expected that the pre- j inters' conference will deal with more i than the most general principles of th peace settlement. In fact, it now seems doubtful if more than a broad, ; general agreement will bo reached; before President Wilson returns to ' i America in February. Out of the 1 coming conferences it is expected 1 that a more or less tentative pro- ; gram will be adopted, which divide ; | the work of the peace congress into ; successive steps. The actual making • 1 of peace with the Central Powers ] may be the last of these steps. The procedure now being dis- ] cussed is roughly as follows. F.rst, a general agreement bc twecn tlie Fulled States and the ' Entente belligerents for the cre ation of a 1-cngue of Nations, or similnr machinery, to enforce the terms of peace and pi-csjprvc It. Second, the setting up of new | independent states growing out 1 of the war. Third, the assessment of dam ages and indemnities and the { manner of their payment. Fourth. the conclusion of ; peace treaties with the Central j Powers. Governments Must Satisfy The peace treaties may be left to the last because none of the agree ments can bind the Central Powers unless, in the meantime, they have established governments which sat isfy the peace congress as to their stability and purpose of carrying out the treaties made. lord Cecil Arrives lord Robert Cecil, who has arrived here with the Arst section of the British pence delegation, expressed the opinion to the Associated Press that the deAnite organization of a League of Nations is indispensable as a Arst step toward enduring peace and satisfactory settlement of inter national problems. Lord Robert made it clear that his statements were personal views and not official. Joint Action Necessary "Joint international action in an organized and recognized form is necessary," he said, "in order to re lieve millions of people who are des titute of food and other necessaries of life owing to the unsetlted condi tion of tlie world; lo regulate per manently many common interests, r such as international railways, posts, I waterways, telegraph and wireless, the use of the air, public health and - the protection of women and Juve s niles in industry; and to discharge • adequately and justly the responsi l bilities of the great civilized nations in such a greut matter as the pro • tection and guidance of backward • peoples. It is the sum of all these • recognized joint activities, interests 1 and responsibilities that we call by the name of 'League of Nations.' It 1 is our business to give this league - deAnite form here and now." Lord Robert showed that he lias little symapthy with the views that the peace congress may' gradually drift into a prolonged session which will ultimately become a Lctgtte of Nations without being definitely and positively organized. "This impresses me as being a* time for the creation of a body which will be effectively organized and not al lowed to drop into inaction," he said. "We are, moreover, anxious not to commit the democratic peoples to responsibilities they are not pre pared, deliberately and consciously, to accept, it is, therefore, important to avoid vagueness and to detine our policy clearly and openly." Asked how far armaments can be limited by a League of Nations, Lord Robert replied: "That, in my opinon, is probably the most difficult problem the peace | congress will face. Individual nations will hardly be willing to disarm until they are sure of peace and justice through the operation of the league. Moreover, how can any limitation of armaments be actually enforced? "What assurance can lie have, for instance, that Germany will not cre ate an army more or less secretly? I "The world did not know how ex j tensively Germany was preparing for war. She might develop another force under the guise of militia. We must endeavor earnestly to secure co-oper ation between the powers represent ed at the congress in a broad policy of demobilization which will corre spond with the yearnings of all peo ples to be relieved as soon as pos scible from the burdens they have borne for these last four and a half years." Lord Robert said the conditions were the same with naval forces. The* French delegates to the Peace Congress, it is understood, will be the following: Georges Olemeneeau, the Premier; t Stephen i'ichon, Foreign Minister; Louis Lucien Klotz. Fi nance Minister: Henry Simon, Minis ter of Colonies: Andre Tardieu French high commissioner to the United States. The technical representatives will include Marshal Foch, for military matters, and Leon Bourgeois, for the subject of the society of nations. Official announcement of the compo sition of the delegation Is expected shortly. At this point arises the question of how long the peace congress shall give the Central Powers to arrange their governents. Some of these working on the problem point out that neither Germany nor Austria can complete their governmental machinery until it is determined what the two peoples desire of this .matter, if no responsible govern ments should appear to give assur ance that obligations undertaken would be carried out the nations represented at the congress could give notice that it would become necessary, at certain points, to as sist in the formation of orderly governments and at the same time cgin to collect revenues to apply on tho bill of damages. Such action would be only a last resort, but, if taken the question would arise as to how far the Unit ed States would participate. Some of those best informed as to the lines along which Mr. Wilson and. the peace commissioners are working believe the United States intends to go no further Into the readjustment of European affairs than to secure general adherence to tho principals already laid down by President Wil- Bon and then expect of course, the details to square with the princi ples. The execution of these details, some diplomats believe may extend Into a work of years, developing Into a process of "constant improvement and adjustment." • JANUARV 0, 1919.
