He argued that factory employes had stood such cuts and he feit it was only fair. The re- duction would amount up to only $30,- 000 and would make little difference in any individual tax bill, but he feit that the principle of the matter war- ranted such a cut. Councilman M. T. Kerwin amended to allow the lists as tentively approv- ed to stand. On a vote on the amend- ment, Councilman King, Kerwin and Morey voted in favor and Councilman Hart and Crusberg opposed. Councilman Hart attempted to ef- fect a compromise to cut the super- numary policeman 10 per cent but-al- low the other salaries to stand.

Hines, in a statement be- | fore the interstate commerce commis- slon in which the former director gen- eral of railroads said he believed the government had ‘“substantially over maintained the equipment of the, roads.” | Mr. Hines told the commission that reports at the end of federal control | showed locomotives to be in “distinctly better” condition than at the begining and the condition of freight cars to “compare favorably” with that time. It must be remembered, he - added, that both generally were In ‘“exceed- ingly poor” condition at the beginning of federal operation. Reports Exaggerated Although there had been some| shortage of maintenance in rails, cross | tles and ballast on some roads, Mr.| in the general discussion. | There could be no better proof of the condition of the roads when turned | back, the former director general said than the unprecedented volume of | business which they began to handle within four months of that time, in| 1920, without, he asserted, any marked | improvement in the condition of their rolling stock. | Stating that critics of the raflroad | administration among the rail execu- | tives appeared to take as a starting point the idea that their equipment | was in ideal condition when the gov- ernment took control, Mr. Hines cited | the testimony of President Rea of the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. in 1017 in| the advance rate case before the inter- state commerce commission. Mr. Rea | then declared in effect, he said that it | had been impossible to maintain pus-} senger car equipment, that the con- | tinuous service of freight cars had left | great numbers in need of repairs and | locomotive repairs also had suffered | from inefliclent and insufficient labor. | Although some who criticized the adminstration's maintenance policy seemed to take the position that it should have placed no limitation on maintenance expenditures, Mr. Hines sald, the government had adopted the “‘perfectly proper limitation" that such amounts should ‘“correspond reason- ably with the government's contract .

Over-Maintained Eqaipment i, Hines said the ratiroad adminis- tration *“had substantially over main- tained” rolling equipment, generally because it wanted the maintenance put on equipment which it could im- mediately use. He contradicted a statement which he said had heen made hefore the commission by Daniel Willard president of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad to the effect that the administration hail ordered a change in the car repair standards, as- serting that the tests of inspection un- der federal control were ‘“‘probably more strict” then than prior to it. except In d directay oo WON'T CHANGE HER NAME Elsie I7iil, National Woman's Party Leader, Weds But Decides to Re- tain Her Maiden Name.
