DIFFER WIDELY
ON METHODS OF
VALUING ROADS
Railway Executives and Em
ployes Air Their Views
Before Interstate Com
merce Commission.
Washington, March 22. RaiIrosl
executives and employes differed
widely before the Interstate Com
merce commission today as to the
methods to be employed in deter
mining the roads' valuation on
which an annual net return of S'i
. per rent is guarantee! for two years
by the transportation act.
Congress has made it imperative
that an immediate valuation be
made. A. P. Thorn, general counsel
for the association of railway ex
ecutives, said.. Property investment
accounts and material and supply
accounts he declared to be the mini
mum conservative figures now sus
ceptible to use. Data being gath
ered by the commission are incom
plete, he said, and should not be
considered at present.
Valued at $20,000,000,000.
Estimating at $20,000,000,000 the
value of the properties, Mr. Thoni
declared over-statements in the
railroads accounts riled with the
commission would be more than off
set by the rise in values in the last
two years.
Speaking for railroad employes,
Donald K. Richberg, representing
Glen E. Plumb, author of the Plumb
plan for railroad ownership, ex
pressed surprise that the executives
and security owners should advo
cate a construction of the act "not
as it is written, but as it would have
been but for a misconception."
Opposed to Subdivision.
He said the interest of the em
ployes in the roads' valuation lay
in assuring a return sufficient to pro
vide operating expenses which could
meet the reasonable wage require
ments of the workers. He denied con
gress intended an immediate valua
tion should be made and called the
property investment account evi
dence of "minor importance."
Opposition to subdivision of the
western classification groups of
roads to form a southwestern sub
division for the purpose of the new
rate adjustment was voiced by S.
T. Bledsoe, general counsel of the
Santa Fe railroad.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha, J See Leaaed Wire,
New York, March 22. Industrial
stocks reflected wide-spread specu
lative buvingr today and the conse
(tient advance of prices, added to
the sharp upturn of last wck, had
result in a rise of the call money
i ate. After standing loans had been
renewed at 7 per cent, a rate which
the market considered comfortable,
the quotation stiffened to 9 per cent
and stood there at the close of busi
ness. While the money upturn waa not sub
stantial as measured In movements of
February, It was not expected in many
quarters and stemcd to promote a heavy
flow of reallrlng sales of ttocks In the
afternoon. A factor In the situation was
news that the federal reserve board had
not recorded In last week's statement the
full loss of gold, making it uncertain
whether the ratio of reserve to liabilities
hud or had not Improved the position
over the week before.
A survey of the final price list showed,
however, that while heaviness was In evi
dence In some departments others h'ad
coma through the day with a great deal
of strength. Steel, petroleums, rubber
and certain of tha motor Issues were
marked by gains extending from 2 to 6
points or more. There was again fever
ish buylne and selling of stocks with a
speculative flavor -contained In possible
stock dividends later on. In General Mo
tors came a demonstration once again
of tho danger short sellers run In this
closely held Issue and only a stock ex-
hauge ruling making the new sharea a
"good delivery" on contracts calling for
old shares aaveU tho existing short Inter
est from a difficult situation. Considered
generally the market disclosed the play
of strontf speculative forces In which
those allied with the upward side of quo
tations had the better of It.
Sterling . exchange moved off rather
quickly in early transactions, but recov
ered much' of tho gross decline before the
duy ended. Cotton prices gained ground,
reaching now high records with spot cot
ton commanding a price of 42c a pound
at New York;

t lUcago Tribune-Omaha llee Leased Wire.
Chicago, March 22. A broad,
erratic corn market was the gov
erning factor in all grains today.
Efforts to prevent an advance was
futile as new highs were made for
all corn futures other than March.
Closing trades were at a good reac
tion from the top wihh net gains
at 2i to 3y4c on corn, j to ViC
011 oats, 3 to 4c on rye and 4c on
barley.
Thero was an utter lack of pressure an
corn almost from tho start, and aside
from the selling out of a liberal sized llnu
by ono of . the original bulls this con
tinued practically throughout the sesslonn.
Price fluctuated very rapidly. The close
was well toward the top at the best llg
urcs of tho season.
Forelmi demand for cash wheat was
fairly active with sales of 15,000 bushels
No. 2 hard here at $2,69 to 2.70 tracif
New York. Sample values here were lo
higher on winters and unchanged on
springs.
While oat futures failed to got into :iew
ground for the season ut tha top, they
were within 8 of the best figures of
last week. July showed considerable
strength and gained c on the May, with
commission houses the best buyers. Th3
action or corn was the dominating in
fluence. Premiums In the sample mar
ket were firm at 8S(8c over May for
No. 2 white, with fancy at 910c over.
Sample values 4f2u higher, closing at
tho top.
Houses with seaboard connections were
active buyers of rye, presumably reflecilng
cash business. No. 2 on track sold at
l2c over May at $1.77 & 1.78. liar
ley firm with a fair demand and light re
ceipts. Spot sales were at $1.43411-65.

VILLIANS are not popular in
civilized society and it is a
brave star who chooses for
himself the role of one. Walker
Whiteside? did so and "got away"
wnii it very wen, indeed, at the
Brandcis theater la.si night, where a
big audience applauded him so
Heartily that you d think adventur
ers, blackmailers, home-breakers
and all-around rogues were the
most popular folks in the world
Walker is all of these things, as
james uune, master ot Uallantrae, in
Robert Louis Stevenson's romance,
"The Master of Ballantrae." A
swashbuckling adventurer in silk
and velvet and lace is he, a devil
with the ladies and, according to his
own account, quite a hero on the
field of battle.
ot to Mr. Whiteside, who
swashbucklcs across the stage most
of the time, stands Miss Sidney
Shields, as Alison, wife of Henry
Durie. The emotional acting of this
young woman in the love scenes was
the real thing that reaches across
the footlights and makes itself felt
in breathless silence.
Frederick Roland as Henry Durie,
the "good brother" of James, por
trayed splendidly a difticult part
where much of the acting is done in
silence.
A large part of the applauded
favor of the audience was bestowed
on the lesser characters, particularly
on Carl Vose . as Faul, a servant,
whose red poll, Scotch burr and
"dream book" were only accessories
of a faithfully acted part. May
Buckley also won favor as Jessie
Broun, the betrayed girl. No ro
mance of the 18th century is com
plete without a betrayed girl.
Hubert Druce put a good deal of
quiet comedy into the part of fat
Mr. McKellar, the steward of the
house of Ballantrae. In fact, the
play needs comedy relief and has it
in the midst of the mystery, storms,
intrigue and general family deviltry
that permeates it. It has comedy.
It is an enjoyable play with the
mysterious genius of "R. L. S." un
mistakably there and well . main
tained by Carl Mason, who made the
literary master's romantic drama
into the nlav.
"The Master of Ballantrae" will
be at the Brandeis tonight and to
morrow matinee and night.
.Tust a slip of a girl Is Ruth Rose, who
r'ays a part with Otis Skinner In "Pletro,"
coming to the Brandeis Thursday, Frldav
and Saturday, with matinee Saturday, of
this week. To look at her one would
never under the. sun Imagine ber driving
a big motor truck in Parts, but this Is
lust what Miss Rose did. Miss Rose
werrs a little wrist watch which Is the
nride of her life. On the back of It Is
the Inscription: "Pour Service." The
watch was presented to her by some F.ner
llsh nnd French officers in apnreciation
of her work. On one occasion Miss Rose
oielved un Oeneral Foeh, whose motor
had broker down, nnd she drove him and
his staff back to headquarters, for which
the general kissed her most arallantlv.
Miss tos? is the daughter of TCdward F,.

Daily Trade Bulletin, Chicago, says:
"A big demand tor cars and a shortage
of supplies is the feature of tho freight
situation. Calls for box cars for moving
grain are Increasing and there ia a short
age In the supply. More cars are being
repaired and (here Is a better supply In
some sections of the corn belt, but not
enough' to satisfy the demand, which has
increased, owing to the advance In grains,
and especially In corn. There is a heavy
movement of all kinds of freight, which
exceed.? last year's. Eastern roads are
short of cars. The Baltimore & Ohio Is
furnishing ir.orc cars for moving grain to
Baltimore and doing better than some of
the other roads. Eastern roads have been
ordered to furnish 300 cars a day to grain
shippers here for this month, but so far
have failed to come up to the average.
The Oraln cotporatlon has wheat sold
that should have been moved out in De
cember, but car scarcity has prevented
.'.nd extra efforts are being made to move
it."
Santa Fe Crop Report says: "The
worst dust storms In 20 years blew over
parts of Kansas last week. Ground was
blown from tthe roots of the winter
wheat and In some sections claims of
25 peer cent damage heard. Kains are
needed at once to Bave the crop from
Injury In Kansas and Oklahoma. The
Texas Panhandle had no rain, but crop
Is not suffering. An increased acreage
is being: put Into cotton and corn here.
Oats seeding In Kansas nearing com
pletion ai.d Is over in Oklahoma, with
an Increased acreage seeded. Revenue
freight loadings last week, 28,532 cars,
an Increase of 34 per cent over last
year."
Prospective Missouri acreage: Missouri
farmers' plans are well forward, accord
ing to the Investigations of Logan & Jew
ell and of the federal and state depart
ment of agriculture. Farmers now in
tend to plant 1 G per cent more corn than
In 1919, which will Increase the corn
acreage 863.000 to a total of 6.619,000
acres In cultivation for the coming crop
year, which is 600.000 bushels less than
tho usual Missouri corn crop. The Inten

Economy Campaign to Shovy s
The Nutritive Value of
Cheaper Meat.
Commencing Thursday of this
week, on recommendation of the
local fair price committee of the
Nebraska Fair Price Commission,
the members of both the retail gro
cers and the master butchers' asso
ciation will on Thursday of each
week offer special inducement to
their customers to use what is
termed "rouRh cuts" of meats.
These cuts have the same nutritive
value as the higher price cuts and
have a Rood flavor if properly pre
pared. These cuts will be offered to
the consumers at about one-half
of what the better cuts cost.
The purpose of this plan of econo
miiting in meat consumption is no!
intended to curtail the purchase 01
consumption of meats. Rather, it is
propose? s"olely for the purpose ol
getting the consumer more rich
nutritive food for his money and .to
bring about that excellent economy
of being well-fed at less cost. Toa
little attention is paid in maj;
homes to the importance of bulk of
quantity in foods. Hence a morse!
of dainty steak, roast or chop is pu(
before a growing boy or girl or t
hard-worked man when .every die
tate of nature and common sens
dietetics cries out for a "fill" ol
thoroughly cocked food. A healthy
hoy wautso eat till his belt hurts.
Fill him up on rich soups, stews and
pot roasts in hearty cooperation
with the plan of "cheap meat Thurs4
day."
