The view was not sustained by the attorney general, however, who, aft- or setting out that he _could . find nothing in the text books&, ancient or modern, or in jurisprudence, to fur- nish the least basis for such argu- ments, ruled that it would be legal for the governor to again fix a date for the execution of the negro, who was convicted of the murder of Charles McQuiller, a white planter, in 1917, A movement has been started in the to have .the death sentence commuted to life imprisonment. Mecanwhile, Eaton is in the Caddo Parish apparently not very much the settlement of the lugal question Goyernor Recommends Life. Monroe, La., Feb. 10.—Lonny Ea- ton, the negro whom Sheriff Arthur (Grant of Ouachita Parish, forgot to hang last Friday for the murder of Charles McQuiller, a prominent white planter, expresses indiff nce over the fact that fate had intervened and saved his life. “I never did think I would hang,” sald he. “Therefore, 1 have never worried. White folks have always been good to me, and they know that 1 ought not to be hanged.” Fver since Faton was sentenced to hanged three years ago- he lost his spirit and has been weemingly indifferent to the great le- gal battle that was going around him.

A ASKS PUBLIC AID FOR RAILWAY CO'S. Must Be Given Support if They Are to Properly Function Chicago, Feb. 10.—The public, in its selfish if for no other must accord public utilities to enable them to function properly, F. K. Schrader of Chicago declared today before the Mid-Year Conference of the Ameri- can Electric Railway association. “Perhaps the one most essential prerequisite to street railway credit is a satisfactory franchise situation,” Mr. Shrader said. “Investors, after numerous bitter experiences, are not now in a frame of mind to place their funds in street railway property, or any other public utility for that mat- ter, unless they are first thoroughly convinced that the basic rights and privileges to conduet a paying busi- ness fully protected. In recent vears, two very important develop- ments in this fleld have taken place, viz., the granting of so-called inde- terminate permits, as practiced in the state of Wisconsin, and the movement toward service-at-cost franchises. While the underlying prin-~iples of the cost-of-service or flexible fare franchise is without any doubt eco- nomically correct, in practice it has not yet, 80 far as I am aware, meas- ured fully up to expectations from a own interest, reason, the earning power are | ! ketable ALL IN THE DAY’S NEWS HERE THAY ‘;"Mlllllllllll'lllllllllll, CATSL ARE GOING TO BE- MADE LONGER— ppened in Years MY GOODNESS ' \'T SAYS SKIRTS lll"lllllllllll.flvlfllfll Ao, P, ' T's OUT IN THE KITCHEN. ognize that the utility business is es-! tially public business, and for the welfare of the public itself it must be accorded the earning power to enable it to function properly. ‘At the moment there ore few elec- tric railway companies that can ful- fill the requirements of the invest- ment market. If net earnings can be improved and by one of several de- vices stabilized, then they may look forward to an increasing ability to finance by mortgage sedurities. Their escrow bonds may later become mar- when interest rates have falien appreciably below present lev- els. But there is not much to be gained in covering in greater detail the kind of mortgage securities that the railways can sell, until they have enjoyved a substantial increase in net earnings. “It is the duty of the owners and operators of the electric railways to restore the credit of the industry and in this they will require the sympa- thetic help of the public.” AMERICAN HONORED Albany Man Is Given Cross of St. { Stanislau in Paris for Work Among Children at Crimean Evacuation. Paris, Feb. 10.—Captain A. S. Ven- ear of Albany, N. Y., attached to the American Red Cross and stationed at Constantinople, has been awarded the Cross of St. Stanislaus with swords by General Wrangel for his humanitarian work among children during the Crimean evacuation. The Cross ‘“‘with swords” is for valor. Captain Venear, a physician, served with the 339th American regiment (mostly of Michigan men) in France and at Archangel. He is a Russian who emigrated to the United States 16 years ago. REDUCING EXPENSES.

Chicago, Ill., Feb. 10.—Adoption of a service-at-cost plan of operation With municipal financial aid as a so- lution of the electric railway prob- lem, was advocated today by Melvin A. Traylor, of Chicago, at the mia- year conference of the American Electric Railway association. Mr. Traylor, justified his sugges- ' tion of municipal aid for electric lines by saying that good transportation development meant beter housing conditions and consequent higher | standards of citizenship. The service-at-cost plan was en- dorsed by Mr. Traylor, because of its fairness to both the public and the company in the matter of giving good service to one and a fair return to the other. Adoption of such a plan, he sald, would make it possible to de- velop new districts in which the la- boring class can live comfortably and still reach their places of work under proper conditions.” “But’ it must always be remeni- bered that as things are at present,” he continued, “the railway is unable to obtain credit for needed improve- ments. It is the civic duty of the municipality to bring about the | changes suggested, and the increase in taxable real and personal property values will afford an economic justi- fication for a loan of municipal cred- it when needed to finance costs of ex- tensions of local transportation sys- tems, “It is now generally recognized that without direct municipal aid, it is almost impossible to plan exten- sions in the new districts which have not yet been fully populated. Of the same general type, but of much less frequent occurrence, are facilities de- signed to accomplish rapid transit, such as elevated or sub-surface struc- tures. These require more capital outlay than it is possible to obtain through private agencies and of this we have an example in the case of the subway systems of greater New ‘ York.” Discussing the public attitude to- ward electric railways, Mr. Traylor said that it was faulty. Admitting frankly, he said that there was fi- nancial mismanagement of lines in the early days, this now is past his- tory and today ‘“we are confronted not by theory but by actual condi- tions of affairs which needs reme- dy. and remedy quickly.” Mr. Travlor declared that munici- pal ownership had proved uneconom- jcal and unsatisfactory not only in this but in many other countries.
