parison of Two Koade fa

Washington, Dec. 1..—(Special Tde
t rani.)— Ilettiiln a charges by tins
chairman af the Hum hern Pacific
"ninparty that comparisons with
tho Union Pacific favored the Heath
orn Pacific, Carl K. Gray, president of
the Union Pacific system. testified
before the Interstate Commerce com
mjtslon in opposition to tile Houthern
Pacific’s application to retain control
of tho Central Pacitb
’ Uur pa.-aofigf r and freight trains
make better tiiuo than they do on the
Southern Pacific," said Mr. Gray.
"Tiie Union Pacific is required to help
the Southern Pacitb make through
schedule* by accepting a faster run
ning time becausej the Union Pacific
has improved its railroad by installing
second track and reducing *its con
trolling grader, in fact, most of tho
comparisons of Southern Pacific and
Union Pacific operating performances
favor tho Union Pacific, The Union
Pacific is not primarily nor funda
mentally asserting a desire to extend
its ownership into central and north
ern California.
"Our contention is^hat vv < are en
titled, however, to a connection on
the part of tho Central l'acltlc rail
way, which will work with he whole
licartedly and has no conflicting in
terests on account of m additional
route through other gatewavs. It is
admitted that the long association of
tho Southern aCentral Pacific in
centrat California has produced a.
community of interests which must
have consideration. 'I he shipping and
traveling public should not suiter as a.
result of conditions for which it is not
in any way responsible, nor should
there be any Increase in rates over
the basis which has barn applied here
tofore. Neither should it be deprived
of any oseentml service. The supreme
court clearly recognized tho pos.-dbil
ity of these disruptions and expressly
provided that there should be an a>
commodation of such matters, llo'ie
ts antpie precedent for tin joint use of
lines and such joint use is conven
tional throughout tho country."
Seattle, San Franeizeo anfl Salt
Bake carry on three-cornered radio
talks. This is an indication of the
possibilities of the future, when all
of the cities of the country may join
in the radio discussion of civic prob
lems.
By combining radio direction find
ing with submarine sound detectors
French engineers have been able to
determine accurately the positions of
ships at sea. Errors due to atmos
pherics, fogs, storms and other na
tural causes were averted.
It was decided upon at twmeeting
of missionaries In Tzeehow, West
China, that radiophones, together
with airplanes, were to bo used as
aids In missionary work In the orient.
In the City where the meeting was
held the delegates could see. the
mountains of Tibet located at a dis
tance that would take several weeks'
journey from Shanghai to reach, as
there are no rail lines In that region.
Because of the lack of transporta
tion facilities and inaccessibility of
tome sections, missionaries have been
unable to reach many of these local
ities:
The missionaries, planning work for
the next 10 years, voted for four sets
of radiophone receivers with which to
link up the widely separated mailt
stations, and four two passenger air
planes with which to reach the. in
accessible sections.

Their Alma Mater.
_ i
A group of former Kansas univer
sity students assembled at the Chant1
Ler of Commerce Monday night, to "get
back in toucli with our alma mater
by radio,” as one of them put it.
They were not disappointed. From
down in Lawrence, Kan., home of the
university, came thesroar of K. U.'s
jflstly famous “Kook Chalk. . Jay
Hawk” yell, delivered by a student'
body. The radio receiving set in
stalled for the occasion caught it out
of the unsuspecting ether, and de
livered it to the little group of alumni
faithfully, even to the haunting,
drawn out “K a ay U-u u-u” at the
end.
In all parts of the country other
groups of Kansas alumni were listen
ing to the same old football battle
cry. The program at Lawrence start
ed at about a, with the Crimson and
I’Jue with Rock Chalk by the com
bined glee clubs. Registrar George
O. Foster then broadcast greetings, a a
did Dr. Frank Strong, former chan
cellor. Miss Margaret Lynn gavo a
talk for women of K. U. and Chancel
lor Lindley made a closing address.
The university band and orchestra
rendered numbers. A large part of
the program could bo heard by the
Omaha group, which joined in one
of the yells, according to schedule.
Prior to the radio demonstration
the Omaha group were served a din
ner, at which Francis SI. Veatcli pre
sided. County Judge Crawford was
among the notabte alumni present.
Mrs. Anton Vaiious Dios.
Sirs. Anton Vanous, widow of the
police captain who died about a year
ago, died Sunday evening at the home
of relatives in Denver from heart
disease, according to a report received
at Central police ■ headquarters yes
terday. Her body will be returned to
Omaha this morning for burial beside
that of her husband.

Meanwhile nationalists and youths
fell upon and beat several radicals

A counter demonstration between
