By HOLLAND.
Daniel Willard, president of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad com
pany, made a statement in an address
recently delivered .in New York.
-hich a few years ago no railroad
president would have ventured to
make. Mr. Willard spoke with em
phac't of ttie need of co-ordination
f between the various transportation
1 facilities of the United States. He
is convinced that the tinn has come
when no longer should there be se
vere competition or in fact any jus
tified competition for traffic in which
the various transportation facilities
of the United States would be en
gaged. - Now, Herbert Hoover, secrctry of
commerce, echoes in a forcible
manner the statement which Mr.
Willard made. Secretary Hoover
does not speak as one personally in
terested in railroad operation. He
speaks as a representative of the
people. Mr. Willard spoke as a rail-
road president wh6 directs a vast
commerce back and forth between
the midwest and salt water ports.
To Serve Nation.
Mr. Hoover is reported to have
said that if we are to improve our
national efficiency and our foreign
trade it is necessary to look upon our
transportation facilities not as com
peting influences, but, instead, as one
'.system so directed as to serve the
f' nation as a whole. By transportation
in tne united states he means mat
which is carried on by the railways,
bv navigable waters and presumably
afso the more extensive use of motor
trucks principally for the transporta
tion and distribution of commodities
by so-called short hauls over high
ways. Mr. Hoover bellsvss that there should
be excellent development of certain trade
routea by means of our mercantile marine.
This would make possible an adequate ex
tension of our Inland transportation. He
believes that the great waterways should
be Improved probably having In mind es
pecially the Mississippi and very likely
the Improvement of the Mtsourt,, He be
lieves that the Great Lakes should be so
connected with artificial waterways as to
make the navigation of them by ocean
going vessels possible and of commercial
advantage, He also speaks of the need
of adequate development of great electri
fication of our watJrpower.
Soma years before his death James 3.
Kill In a conversation, said that the time
was not distant when It would be lm
, possible for the railways to handle all the
trafflo that would be offered. The rail
way companies, might be In position, ha
said, greatly to Improve terminal facili
ties ef which there wss Imperative need.
They might expand their systems and con
struct branch lines and vet with the
arowth of the country and the rapid util
izing of its great natural resources the
amount of trafflo which would be offered
would be so large as to create emergencies
which the rilroada might not ba able w
overcome.
Mr. Hill's Viewpoint.
Mr. Hill did not speak, except by intima
tion, of the necessity of improving water
navigation. He apparently, however, was
of the opinion that the railroads did the
navigable waters of the country might
supplement each the other, each becoming
a profitable feeder of the other. Yet only
a few years before Mr. Hill spoke in this
way qpe of the Vanderbilts pointed to
barges which were under tow upon the
i Hudson river with destination at New
. iora ana wnicn, naa oeen prougnt through
the Erie canal. .. Mr. Vanderbllt was riding
In one of the cars of the New Tork Cen- I
tral Railroad company and was so seated
that be was able to look out for miles
upon the Hudson. He said, pointing to
these barges, "We ought to have that busi
ness." and in that remark was compressed
the view which almost all railroad man
agers of that day took when speaking
of water transportation as something
which was competing with the railroads.
Earlier the promoters of railroads in New
England, in Pennsylvania, and in some
parts of the middle West, brought the
charters and stock of canal companies nd
then abandoned the canals. In Some
caaes, ss In Connecticut, railroad tracks
were laid upon the towpath. The 'canal
by means of which coal was transported
from the anthracite region of Pennsyl
vania to deep water on the Hudson, was
secured by a, railroad corporation, competition-
wsa then strangled and the canal
remained only in history.
ComDletA With Canals.
The railroads did complete successful
ly with tha canal boats. The New York
- Central, for Instance, was able to trans
port frslght, especially wheat, from Buf
falo to New York or Boston in faster
time and at less cost than like trans
portation through the Erie canal. But
this successful competition was due to
the fact the canal had become almost
. obsolete so far as Its facilities were con
cerned, whereas the railroad was sub
jected to constant improvement involving
reduction In costs of operation and ln
i crease in speed.
I, The war and! the exlgenclta of trans-
portatlon which that cause visibly dem
onstrated that In addition to the rail
roads water transportation suppl'mened
by motor trucks was needed in order to
. move the freight. There came about that
time the demonstration o( what the Mis
sissippi is capable of doing slier the im
provements were made, in the way of
bearing cemmerce from the interior, to
the gulf. It was discovered tnai mia
didn't Impair tha business of the ralr
rosds. It supplemented that business.
When Abraham L.incoin,
before ha became president. Indicated that
Omaha should be the eastesn tm'nl
, of the projected Pacific ratlroid, ha had
C;n mind, aa stated by General Dodge, not
tha geographical sltustlon of Omaha but
also thi advantage which it might pos
sess on account of Its location on the
bank of a great river.
Mr. i Hoover la now in position when
acting in co-ordination with the railroad
authorities to take Important steps toward
the co-ordination or the three .transpor
tation facilities of the United ttes the
rails, the navigable waters, and the hlgn.
way trucks. And it Is spoken of here a
significant that upon his advent to the
office of secretary of commerce this pur
pose should have been almost the first
wblcH he publicly set forth.

SO many readers of these articles
in The Bee have phoned and
written in, requesting that I
make a complete analysis of some
individual, that I decided to choose
some public official and put in his an
alysis at this point in the series. I
had planned on taking one of the
city commissioners, and actually
went to the Council chamber to
study whichever one of them seemed
most interesting.
But once there, I found two men,
opponents in the electric light com
pany's rate hearing, who were so
alike, and yet so vividly unlike, that
I instantly decided to give a compar
ative analysis of them.
Two distinguished visitors to Om
aha at this time let me here intro
duce ko you are Mr. Alton B.
Adams, expert from Boston for the
city, and Mr. W. J. Henderson, ex
pert from New York City for the
Nebraska Power Co. Mr. Adams is
ably presenting arguments against
giving the power company a rate in
crease, and Mr. Henderson as ably
upholding the contention for need
for that increase. Here is a com
parison and contrast of the two
men. .
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Alton B. Adams.
Motive structure, needing lots of
physical activity; has neglected him
self in this respect, and has Vjver
done the mental.
Will never rest long enough to
grow fat; will keep thin hunting a
"scrap" until he dies with his "boots
on." . '
Was ' originally sensitive to his
environment; with an attractive mag
netic personality. Still has the mag
netism; but his neglect of personal
environment to the point of careless
ness has let eccentricity take the
place of attractiveness.
Has poise.
Physical energy is greater than
his endurance; this is his own fault,
due to neglect of his needs along the
line of physical activity.
W. J. Henderson.
Strongly motive, with need for
regular physical activity.
Must guard against the possibility
of growing fat vith advancing years,
for this would coarsen his present
fine nature.
Is still sensitive to his environ
nientfc with an attractive, magnetic
personality. If he keeps his sensi
tiveness. hVwill grow more so with
each yeir he lives.
Has some poise, but needs more;
can gain more 'by overcoming nerv
ous gestures. . ,
Very well balanced as to physical
energy and endurance.
MENTAL CHARACTERISTICS
" Adams.
Outstanding trait his sense of
humor; life is a charming' game
with him, his own part in it in
cluded; he sees the funny side qf
everything, even in the mental bat
tles he fights to earn his living.
Fairly quick intellect, reinforced
always by thorough preparatory
reasoning. Oood imagination.
Intuitive; will take long chances
for the sheer joy of tftking risks and
having al mental "scrap."
Has good reasoning powers; is
theoretical rather than practical.
Is absolutely indifferent to public
opinion now; his attitude, however,
is the result of a deliberate deter
mination to put up a shield outside
an over-sensitive nature, in the past.
Lots of mental courage.
Fair degree of observational de
velopment.
Keen concentration ability.
Naturally optimistic and enthusias
tic; but undoubtedly has distinctly
negative moods to rise above, at
times. ' x
Has not a keen financial acumen,
nor strong consciousness of prop
erty, rights; will always care more
for a battle of wits than the money
he will get out of it.
Is a splendid actor; loves the play
of life; dramatizes every action in
life;v but ,is not a four-flusher; he
merely makes life a game for the
sheer love of a battle of wits.
Splendid mental energy and en
durance, his mind will-probably burn
bright until his body burns out."
Has a tendency to be a single
track type of thinker; once he takes
sides, it is hard for him to see the
o'.hcr side of the question.
Henderson.
Outstanding trait tiis nractical.
ken' intellect, withTts calm, judicial
views of things he undertakes. Life
is a real, earnest and serious matter
with Mr. Hendersop, even though
his is much the younger of the two
V cry keen, quick, intellect. -r
Good imagination.
Intuitive; has the courage to play
his hunches, and will play them,
provided they are practical.
Has good reasouing powers; is
thoroughly practical in his thinking.
Shows somewhat of a tendency to
play for approval; this is largely off
set, however, by his splendid amount
of mental courage. Both men are
very strong in this respect.
Lots of mental courage.
Good degree of observational de
velopment Keen concentration abilitv.
Naturally optimistic; but his sensi
tiveness may cause him to have
slightly negative moods also.
Is materially ambitious; has a
strong sense of human and materi
al values..
Lives life seriously; although he
has plenty of aggressiveness, he will
not battle for the joy of it, but only
because there is a principle involved.
Splendid mental energy and en
durance. If he keeps' ,m as fine
physical trim as he is now, he will
always have it.
Rather liberal in thought; can see
both sides to a question, even if his
own interest is alligned with one side
very strongly.
EMOTIONAL (SPIRITUAL)
CHARACTERISTICS.
Adams.
Sympathetic,! generous, fairly al
truistic, purposely indifferent in spir
it to cover an original oversensitive'
ness. '
Henderson.
Sympathetic, generous, fairly al
truistic, sensitive in spirit.
VOCATIONAL RECOMMENDA
TIONS.
Mr. Adams is a decided type of
the- ttcc-lar.ee mind, which can mar
shal its mental forces for the fray
with the joy of the knight of old
whose sword was happily raised at
any chance of battle. As a lad, he
undoubtedly took the opposite side
of every possible argument, just to
"make the fur fly."
He keeps this trait as a man.
Even though I may be misunder
stood, and accused of partisanship
in the existing debate on electric
light rates. I will say right Jhre
that I should like to see the, Ne
braska Power company asking for
a decrase in rates. I have this re
spect for Mr. Adams' ability as a
"scrapper" that I think he would
be equally as able in marshaling
facts against that side of the ques
tion as against the side he is on.
Mr. Adams could have made a
brilliant success as av criminal law
yer, for his facility of mind would
enable him to line up so thorough
ly on the side of his clients that he
would convince himself, as strong
ly as he did his jury, that his case
was right: His marvellous ability
as a dramatist would have enabletl
him to sway juries. A chair of law
in a big university' would have
brought Mr. Adams world nptice,
both by means of the lecture plat
form and the printed word. A chair
of political economy would have
made him a splendid setting for
his brilliantly theoretical mind.
Mr. Henderson would be a suc
cessful executive head of a big busi
ness, just such a one as that for
which he is now giving expert tes
timony. He has the keen, steady
personality which one finds at the
"driver's wheel" of almost every big
American industry. I am not at
tempting to state that Mr. Hender
son would not also make a fine
lawyer. He would; but his prac
tice would be more along the line
of important civil cases, and of busi
ness advising, like Francis Brogan
of Omaha.
Answers to Questions.
C, B. B., Stromsburg, Neb. Abraham
Lincoln ones remarked: "Versatility is a
weakness, since it can never be greatness.
I should advise you to consult some one
who is experienced on reading human na
ture, ask advice as to what thing you
could make a success at, and then stick
to that one thing like grim death. At
46 a man should be definitely started on
a life-career, so don't waste any more
time in attempts at vocations you don't
know anything about.
J. M. Notice the reply to G. B. B. If
I were you. I should decide what sort of
a business I wanted to pursue as a voca
tion all the rest of my life, and then
brush up my shorthand in a preperation
for getting a foothold there. Stenography
la a good tool to use for making a place

young men.

Cattle The smaller run of cattle on
Tuesday failed to Improve the demand or
stimulate the market in any way and trade
was very slow with prices ranging from
steady to 16 25c lower. Desirable light
and handy Weight steers as well as the
best of the cows snd heifers were quotably
steady, but plain heavy cattle and the
general run of butcher stock ruled around
a quarter lower and was slow sale at
that. In stoi-kers and feeders trade was
rather quiet with little material- change
In prices one way or the other.

Hot-About 12,000 hogs were received
today and the market was featured by a
fairly rbroad shipping demand early at
prices a dime to a quarter higher. Pack
ers refused to sanction any advance, how
over, and held off for cheaper cost. Larg
er .packing droves were put up at de
clines of 10J. 25c, and the market as a
whole presented a very uneven appearance.
Best bacon hogs advanced to 110.76, the
day's top and bulk of the receipts sold
from 39.60 $10.60.

Financial
By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
New York, March IS. Judged by
the experience of similar occasions
in other years, the most significant
factor in today's financial movements
was the absence of any reflection
whatever of the income tax collec
tions in the money market. Thv
Wall street rate for call loans went
to IS per cent when the March in
stallment was being paid a year ago,
and time rioney rose 12 to 16 per
cent in the corresponding period of
1919, but so far from any such ad
vance occurring today, call money
again Joaned at 6 per cent outside the
stocit .exchange and time money
rates were quotably easier.
No doubt this was largely a re
sult of reduced payments on the
taxes. Secretary Mellon's remark
that "income and profits tax pay
ments during March will about bal
ance the March IS maturities of
principal and interest," would, if ap
plied exactly, mean a reduction of
36 per cent as compared with the
payments of last March.
j Market Stronger.
The day's stock market may conceiv
ably have been influenced by this proof of
a comfortable money position : It would
at any rate have been adversely affected
by a rise in money rates. As It was
the market, as a whole moved up, clos
ing with numerous net advances of 1 to
9 ponits. This recovery did not hsppen
until after another attempt by the profes
sionals to force down prices In half a
dozen speculative Industrial shares. Early
declines of 2 or 3 points were, in fact,
obtained In these markets, which again
absorbed to themselves more than one
fourth of the day's business, but thlr
pricoB also recovered or more than re
covered the earlier losses before the closo.
The railway shsres, as a- group, were firm
all day and distinctly strong at the close.
In foreign exchange the day's movement
was similar to that in stocks. The Parts
rate which declined on Monday from 7.08c
per franc to 6.90c, recovered to 6.99c to
day and sterling also regained most of the
previous day's loss, closing at an advance
of a full cent.
Illg Cotton Surplus.
In its bearing on the market, the most
striking part of today's monthly cotton
consumption report of the census bureau
is the statement of cotton in storage out
side of consuming establishments. The
total at the end of February was 5..
497.019 bales, ss compared with 3,630,654
at the same date In 1920.
Against this Increase of 1,966.363 bales
In the hands of producers or middlemen,
lint cotton on hand at mills Is 533,9:13 bales
less than a year ago. The estimate thus
supplements the agriculture department's
recent report on the amount of corn in
farmers' hands March 1, which exceeded all
previous figures for that date and on ths
farmers holdings of wheat, which wero
exceeded enly in the March date after the
billion bushel crop of 1915.

Chicago Grain
Bonds and Notes
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha lire I -eased Wire.
Chicago, March IS. Export buy
ing of wheat the past two days has
aggregated 5,000,000 bushels, with
4,000.000 bushels to England and 1,
000 000 bushels to Germany, Italy
and Belgium. This had a different
effect on the grain markets from that
of the previous day and started a
covering 'movement, despite strong
opposition around the top, which cre
ated a good reaction from the top.
At the close, March wheat was 3-4c
and May 21-2c higher, corn up 7-8c
to lc, oats l-2c, rye 2 to 2 l-4c and
Barley 1 l-8c. In the provision trade
there was firmness and net gains of
10ct on pork. 5c on lard and un
changed to 5c higher on short ribs.
The wheat trade sold too much
on the break of Monday and early
today. Those who sold wheat for
export bought against it on the ad
vance of 3 1-2 to 4c. In addition to
the other buying, there was selling
of large volume wheat trade at
tributed to hedging sales by the in
terests who had bought the cash
wheat and by leading longs, the im
pression being that the Armour
Grain company had selling orders in
hands of commission houses.
Corn Receipt Small.
Country holders of corn have stopped
selling and receipts here wero only 283
cars, while the five markets hnd 624
cars against 971 cars a week ago and
635 cars last year. Strength and an ad
vance of lc to 69e. for May wss duo
more to shorts covering snd to sympathy
with wheat than to any other factor. There
wero !!!? linen taken In eorly which ab
sorbed the surplus. Calls from r-xpoiters
were not so urgcTit. ss bids were not ad
vanced add only 76,000 bushels sold for
export and 777.000 bushels to the domes
tic trade. It is aaid that the stocks v, 111
show smsller gains from. row on. '
Light offerings of oats and buying led
by . Bartlett & Frosier, combined with
reduced offerings and the bulge in corn,
made It eacy to advance prices lc to 43c
for May, with a close at 48c. No. 2
white In the sample market sold at May
prices to e over. No. S white wss
weaker and 1 to le under. Cash
prices were 1 c over on the poorest, with
shipping sales of 125,000 bushels.
Exporters were sfter rye and took 25,
000 bushels at 25c over Chicago. May
track Baltimore, or le better than Mon
day. Local operators were good sellers,
yet prices advanced. v.
Pit Notes. . i
The late strength In wheat was helped
by reports of green bug damage snd dry,
weather in the southwtst and by lighter
arrivals, the latter showing a good drop
from a week ago. Available stocks de
creased 828.000 bushels Isst week, against
939.000 bushels Inst year.
As a result of the big export sales,
premiums at the gulf sdvsnccd 1o to a
basis of 23424c over May for April ship
ment, while bids to the country, track
Texas City, were sdvanrsd to 23c over
May 30 day' shipment. There were
76.000 bushels' rye sold st New York at
27c over May. Chlcsgo handlers sold 75.-
000 bushels corn and 26.000 bushels rye
to the seabord and latter at 2"c over
May. track Baltimore, prompt shipment,
or 1c better than the previous day.
Domestic shipping sales of cnxh wheat
were 25,000 bushils. corn 77,000 bushels
and oats 126,000 bushels.
Premiums on hard winter wheat at
Chicago were unchanged to c
higher, with No. 1 hard at 3 6c and No.
2 hard st 1 1 4c over March, while red
was unchanged at H12c over for No.
1 springs unchanged, with dark No. 1
northern 6llc over Mtrch. Receipts, "9
ears.
Red winter wheat was unchanged at
St. Louis and Kansas City, but hard was
2c higher at St. Louis and l3c at Kan
sas City. Omaha sold wheat to the gulf
at c better basis than on Monday and
quoted cash prices lft 2c higher. At St.
Louis 110,000 bushels hard winter delivered
on March contracts were quickly sold at
exporters. Springs at Minneapolis were
unchanged to lc higher.
New Tork Coffee.
New York. March 15. New low records
for the season were established in the
market for coffee futures again today.
Traders found no fresh selling incentive
In the esrly cables from Brazil and after
opening unchanged to 6 points lowr,
prices steadied up slightly on covering.
There'was no demand otherwise, however,
so far as could be learned arund the ring
and the market later weakened on reports
of a lower cost and freight market, re
newed liquidation and the expectation of
stop orders. May sold oft to 5.89o and
September ;to 6.16e and the market closed
at a net loss of 20 to 25 points.
