of the latter' plan (or five-year
contiiyiation of government con
trol to provide a test period, and
has supported most of the policies
of the retiring director general. He
originated many policies of the rail
road administration. If congress
does not enact new railroad legisla
tion at an early date, Mr. Hines
favors returning the roads at once
to private management, and this is
expected to develop into a strongly
contested issue within the next
month or two.
Until he became a member of
the railroad administration staff a
year ago, the new director general
was chairman of the Santa Fe, and
was one of the youngest railroad
executives in the country. He is
now 48 years of age. He became
affiliated with railroads as a law
yer. Will Carry on McAdoo's Policies.
Chicago, Jan. 11. "Mr. McAdoo's
policies are my policies, and I in
tend to carry them out through the
existing railroad organizations,"
Walker D. Hines telegraphed to re
gional directors, immediately after
announcement of his appointment as
director general, which was made
by President Wilson by cable and
on recommendation of Mr. MeAdoo.
The new director general also de
clared for "a square deal for labor,"
fair treatment of railway owners
and patrons and closer understand
ing between the public and the
government on railway questions.
Mr. Kines' first official act today
was to delegate the railroad admin
istration's case in the New York
marine workeiY strike to the war
labor board for settlement.
MeAdoo in Los Angeles.
'Los Angeles,, Cal., Jan. 11. Wil
liam G. MeAdoo reached here to
day on his trip from Washington to
Santa Barbara. Cal., and was
greeted at the Santa Fe station by
prominent local democrats, the
mayor and a delegation of citizens.
He was escorted by a parade
through the business' district,
headed by a naval band and fea
tured by an escort of motion picture
workers in cowboy costume.
In a speech at the hotel Mr. Me
Adoo said that he was not. at pres
ent," an advocate of either private
ownership or pernTanent govern
ment control of railroads, but
wanted to see the present methods
well tried out.
Mr. MeAdoo, accompanied by
Mrs. MeAdoo and their youngest
daughteit, left late today for Santa
Barbara, Cal. t
Railroads Do Not Expect
Car Shortage This Winter
With the Omaha roads the freight
car problem has worked itself out in
a satisfactory manner. While there is
no great surplus of empty cars,
there is a sufficient supply to take
care of the business.
Railroad men are not inclined to
the belief that from now there will
be anything like a car famine. They
point to the fact that grain stocks
have moved out in great volume
and that the grain remaining in the
hands of farmers is not likely to
bring about any congestion of equip
ment'. Cattle and hogs have been pretty
well cleaned up and consequently
there is no possibility of there being
any serious shortage of stock cars.
In the matter of cars for, handling
coal, the available supply is ample.
Dealers are well stocked up with
coal and as a result the demand for
cars is light.

Mr. Condon also stated tht ths
strike committee had ordered word
be sent immediately to all members
of the affiliation that as many as
possible should return to work to
morrow morning. He added that the
committee had agreed to leave the
whole controversy for settlement by
the National War Labor board,
which is expected to meet Monday
morning at the latest.
