Unions Oppose
Federal-Owned
Roads, Is Claim
Brotherhood Official, Speaker
at U. P. Celebration, Says
k. Govern ment Ownership
No Solution of Problem.
Opposition to government owner
ship of rallroatfs from the standpoint
of the railroad brotherhoods was
voiced at the Union Pacific day gath
ering at North Platte Thursday by
W. N. Doak, vice president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
according to Omahans who have re
turned from the meeting.
Mr. Doak's expression on the sub
ject is considered significant for the
reasons that heretofore, according to
railroad officials, the brotherhoods
have remained more or less neutral
on the subject.
“If half the statements made re
garding management of railroads
were true, it is a mystery how the
railroads could have continued to
exist,” Mr. Doak is quoted as saying.
Held No Solution.
"No government ownership system,
in my opinion, has ever been devised,
or ever will he devised, to fill the bill.
I believe the men of our organization
are not in favor of government own
ership. We believe this will not solve
the transportation problem. I sug
gest loyalty to the company which
employs you. Ask the patrons of
the road to have faith in the rail
road. On no other road, have the
brotherhoods had the fairness and
rn-operation that they have had with
the Union Pacific system.”
Carl Gray, president of the Union
Pacific system, also expi I sed dis
trust of government ownership, al
though -.i'e was director in charge of
i^iperation during the period of gov
ernment control.
“During the war the government
took over the railroads, not because
of any dereliction on their part, but
to facilitate the needs of war trans
portation because the government
under one unified head could do
things that the railroads could not
possibly do without driving some of
them into bankruptcy," he said.
One-Man Power.
“In this I was made director of

British Bride of American Citizen
Barred Because Quota Is Exhausted
New York. June 1.—Because
Great Britain's Immigration quota
hag exhausted six days ago, Mrs. Elsie
Demitron, English bride of an Ameri
can citizen, who arrived here on the
steamship President Monroe this
week, mt/st be excluded, an Immigra
tion board decided yesterday. She ap
pealed the decision to Washington.
Mrs. Demitron was barred under
the recent law stipulating that an
alien marrying an American does not
become a citizen of this country until
she has lived here a year.
The decision. It was believed, fore
casts similar adverse decisions In the
cases of five other British subjects
who also arrived among the first
class passengers on the President
Monroe.
Local authorities expressed the
opinion that the only possibility
whereby some of the other Britishers
might be permitted to enter would
be their temporary admission as tour
ists. Claim for special considera
tion as a tourist was made by one
of the five, Mrs. Alice Robertson, who
had her passport visaed by an Ameri
can consular officer in England be
fore the quota was filled and who
and as such had absolute one-man
power.
"I wouldn't trust any man with
that power. For such a condition
to exist would be detrimental to the
country and unsafe for the public."
More than 6,000 persons attended
the celebration. Four special trains
were parked on sidings and all regu
lar trains were crowded.
Candidates Are Examined
for Beatrice Postmaster
Special Dispatch to The Omaha Bee.
Beatrice, Neb., June 1.—D. E. Batle,
P'Stoffice inspector, and Warren
Adams of the civil service department
are here examining the qualifications
of candidates for postmaster. They
are R. R. Kyo, Robert Pease, Mrs.
Clark Perkins, H. L. Harper, J. R.
McCann and G. L. Mumford.
Concert Club Campaign.
Robert Sheehan has been appointed
campaign manager by the City Con
cert club for a drive to raise $5,000
for band concerts in the parks during
the summer. The drive is scheduled to
start Monday, and will continue two
weeks. C. B. Binns will be assistant
manager.

stated that she would remain here
only six months.
For the first time since the re
stricted immigration law became ef
fective, the British quota was ex
hausted Just before the President
Monroe arrived. This fact is apparent
ly not known in London and as
tonishment expressed there at the de
tention of the British subjects is
based on a belief that the action is
unwarranted, Imlgration officials
said.
