Trucks Calls Outlook Bad
W :rren E. Ful!er. assist- nt vice
president of the Burlington railroad,
assailed "governmental di'- rimina
tiOB against railroads in v! mat'c
of transportation" in a tali; I of" '2
the Concord club at the Psxrc.i be
te: I Pmnh.t Thursday noon.
Ho Stated that while other busi
ness cruld look forward to a come
back efter the depression wa over,
the railroad outlook remained gloomy
due to Competition subsidize 1 by
tax-1 ion.
"The pr'vate automobile, followed
by ".he narsenger bus. has a bin ,s.p
ed out our local passenger buata bs,"
he ; aid. "and it has made dkW in
roads on our lor.g haul bis .

creasing use cf existing waterways.
; d proposed waterway develop .uent,
things look bn.d for us."
Cites Figures.
Mr. Fuller cited figures coir.piled
by the Bureau of Railway Econom
ics in support of the claim thai wa
terway transportation is actually
more costly than that of the rail
road:?. "The public professes to want good
service rendered by railways owned
and managed by private companies,"
he ext laimed, "and yet they are even
urging their governments to so sub
jidize other means of transportation,
and tt so differentiate between them
and the railways in regulation, that
railway rates are k pt too low, enor
mous amounts of traffic are heing
diveried to other means of trarspor
tation, and our ability in future to
maintain the earning capacity and
service of the railways under pri
vate ownership i3 being seriously
threatened."
Wants Same Basfs.
5r. Fuller complained thai while
the railroads are doubtless common
carriers, as they are considered,
trucks, busses, pipe lines and water
ways should be considered in the
same way.
"Don't misunderstand me," Mr.
Fuller cautioned. "I don't want you
to think fha' we are opposed to other
methods of transportation. But we
are opposed to suhsidized competi
tion, to the government operation of
waterways at less than the cost of
the service: to the passing of the hat
through taxation to make up the de
ficit. Is there any reason wh3r the
nonuser should carry the user's bur
den? Why shouldn't we kick about
vehicles operating over paved high
ways built and maintained through
tax itlon, permitted to operate as and
When they please at rates of their
own making?"
"We don't want to retard progress
or development ," he said in conclus
ion. "We don't want sympathy, but
we do wish we could get a square
deal."

senate adjourned late yesterday.
count stood 19 to .
Inasmuch as the bill contained pro
vision for expenditures in excess of
those recommended by Governor
Bryan, it required a 00 per tent vote
in the senate, or a total of 20 vbt
to pass the measure. A budget in
iine with the governor's recommen
dations would have required only a
majority vote.
Wails Five Minutes.
Lieutenant Governor Metcalfe
announced that inasmuch as he
had been accused of 'steam roll
er" tactics, he would give every
senator a chancp to change his
vote. He waited five minti'es
after Scott had taJ bis ballot
before announcing the count.
Before Scott voted. Senator Ken
neth S. Wherry I rep. ) of Pawnee
City made another attempt to send
the bill back to the finance commit
tee for further revision. His motion
was ru'ed out of order.
The bill passed was the one recom
mended by the senate finance com
mittee, which Wednesday was re
jected by the senate on a 17 to Ifl
vote. Yesterday the same chamber
voted to reconsider the action.
The governor had recommended
nporoprfntions totaling only $"41.
263,094. Goes Back to House.
The bill nOtf goes back to the
house. Should It fail to com ur in the
increases over the governor's recom
mendations the bill will go to a con
ference committee composed of mem
bers of both houses who will report
their recommendations to their re
spective branches of the legislature.
To prevent a gubernatorial veto, the
hill must receive 60 favorable votes
in the house.
In the senate, 17 republicans and
three democrats oted for the bill. Ten
democrats and three republicans vot-
led "no."
Appropriations Boosted.
The house finance committee rec
ommended appropriations totaling
$43.990,S37. but the house failed to
pass the bill by a margin sufficient
to increase the amounts over the gov
ernor's recommendations and the
senate received the bill as recom
mended by the governor.
The finance committee of the tipper
house boosted the appropriations
apain and these increases were in the
bill passed this morning. The bill
passed provides that the salaries of
all state departmental and institu
tional employes receiving salaries in
excess of $115 a month will be re
duced 10 per cent.
The bill will be brought before the
house of representatives this after
noon for concurrence or rejection.
Iiou?e leaders announced at noon.
Doubtful iliat the required 60 vot'
can be produced to pass the meas
ure in its prefiant form and assure
its adoption in spite of opposition by
Governor Bryan, house members v. ere
preparing to place the bill in the
hands of a conference committee.
Should the bill p:s at once, mem
bers conceded the session would come
to an abrupt end. World-Herald.
