Pr. 1 A. Tlnlt-y received a letter yester

therefore, a distinct disappointment. The

"ej '
WASHINGTON, Oct, 24.-"!f It is right
for the government to shield tho railroads
from the effects of tlie war: If It Is right
for the government to make good tho
losses of people In different Industries, I
am going to propose a measure that will
require every hen In Iowa to lay an egg
very day; If she falls to do so, that the
government shall make up to the owner
of that hen, the value of the egg she did
not lay."
This statement was made by Clifford
Thorite, counsel fur several western state
railroad commissions and shippers' asso
ciations in presenting the shippers' side
of the case at th hearing before the In
terstate Commerce commission on appli
cation of eastern railroads for a general
Increase In freight rates. -
'The hearing came to an end today and
Arguments will be heard next weok, with
every Indication of an early decision by
the commission. The presentation of the
rase of the opposing shippers occupied
less than two hours, as against five daya
occupied by witnesses for the csrriors.
Mr. Thorns took the position that no bust
I ess depression had been shown by the
carriers that did not equally affect ship
pers, and that the Increase would be un
just. Obunsel for all other shippers re
ported joined in the statement.
Arguments will begin next Thursday
morning and probably will be concluded
Friday.
