TOBABCO GROWING CONSIDERED NON-ESSENTIAL. ‘Growers Will Be Given Opportunity for Hearing Before Council of De: fonse. In_pursuance of its policy of pre- venting the further diyersion of men, money and materials to enterprises or industries “not essential to the prose- cution of the war or the furnishing of the necessaries of life or the mainte- nance of public interests,” as set forth in a_resolution adopted on Dec. 12, the Connmecticut state council of de- fense is sending out letters to all the tobacco growers of Connecticut or of other states which have plantations in Connecticut directing any growers who contemplate increasing their tobacco acreage in 1918 that they may apply to the council at once for hearing in regard to the enforcement of the council's policy. With the letters are 'being sent copies of the resolution of the council. The council recently sent out letters to the tobacco growers inquiring as to their acreage plans for the 1918 season and the replies received indicate an increase in acreage which it is esti- mated would require the labor of a large number of additional men dur- ing_the harvest season. The letter to the growers followe: “There is enclosed herewith a copy of the resolution adopted Dec. 12, 1917, by the Connecticut state council of defense setting forth the position of the council as to ‘non-essential’ pro; duction. 3 “It is the purpose, of the council to enforce the policy set forth in the resotution. The council. however, will not oppose the prosecution of any par- ticular business activity withou® giv- ing to those immediately affected a reasonable opportunity to be heard. “Any persons or corporations con- templating a direct or indirect increase in 1818 in the production of cigar leaf tobacco, whether of primed Havana seed. broad leaf, Flavana seed, or of shade grown tobacco. who desire to be heard on the question of such increase will communicate at once with the state council of defense at the state capitol, Hartford, Conn.

This GOV'T CONTROL OF RAILROADS PROCLAIMED (Continued from Page One.) so far as they could while hampered as they werc by legal restriciions. Follows the British System. THe plan of control as.outlined in the proclamatiori and statement leaves much unsaid as to details, but the general sc ¢ me appears to follow close- Iy the British sygtem. In England, however, government {reight is car- ried free and the guaranteed earninzs require an enarmous amount of mon- ey from .government funds, While in she Unfted States the government will pay for its freight as in the past and will stand its part of increased freight tariffs if they are found to be neces- sary. Aside from the president's statement there was no_comment in the capital tonight on - the government's move. Secretary McAdoo declined to be quoted -and members of the railroads’ war board sald they would have no statement to make until tomorrow. ‘Rate Question Will Not Be Affected. Rate questions, including the pend- ing 15 per cent. advance case before the Interstate Commerce Commission, will nat be affected immediately by President Wilson's proclamation di- recting government operation for rail- roads, and the commission will con- tinue to exercise all its existing func- tions. An early -decision of the easterr, and western railroads’ application for 1% per cemt. higher rates is now expect- ed. Railroads wil] continue to apply to the commission for-increases or mod- ifications of rates and .practices, unless the director-general issues specific or- ders otherwise, and in tiat case his au- thority will be supreme. The prin- cipal rate question now under consid- eration by the commission in addition to the 15-per cent. case are the express companies’ application for a 10 per cent inerease and various ramifications of the weetern inter-mountain cases. Doubt About Express Companies. Fome doubt was felt tonight as to whather express companies are includ- ed in the president's proclamation They are not mentioned specificatlly, but the president referred to ‘“every system of transportation and the ap- purtenances thereto.” This was gen- erally intarpreted as ineluding these companies, whose business is so close- Iy interlocked with that of the rail- roads. State railroad and public utilties commissions will be Jeft with full pow- ers to supervise intrastate rates and transportation rules. It is presumed that railroads will apply direct to the Interstate Com- merce Commission or to the state com- missions as in the past without refer- ring questions of rate increase to the director .general, although the proce- dure will depend largely on the scheme of control to be worked -out by Mr. McAdoo. In the fifteen per cent. cases the railroads - presented figures showing marked declines in net earnings this vear, and explained that even the in- crease In earnings resulting from a fifteen per cent. increase — probably would not suffice to check the decline. This led officials to suggest that the government railroad administration might look with favor on higher rates, since they would tend to reluce the amount which government operation will cost the public under the plan of guaranteeing pre-war earnings. The President’s Statement. The president’s statement follows: “I have exercised the powers over the transportation systems of the coun- try which were granted me by the act of congrass of August 1916, because it has become imperatively necessary for me to do so. This is a war of re- sources no less than of men, perhaps even more than of men, and it is neces- sary for the complete mobilization of our resources that the transportation systems of. thé country should be or- ganized ‘and -employed under a single authority and a_simplified method of co-ordination which have not proved possible under . private management and _control. “The committd of railway execu- tives who have been co-operating with the government in this all-important matter have done the utmost that it was possible for them to do; have done it with patriotic zeal and with great ability; but there were differences that they could neither escape nor neutral- jze. Complete unity of administration in. the present circumstances involves upon occasion and at many points a serious dislocation of earnings. and the committee was. of course, without er or authority to rearrange charges or effect proper compensations and adjustments of earnings. Several roads which were willingly and ‘with admirable public spirit accepting the orders of the committee have already suffered from'these circumstances and From Piles no matter how long or how bad—go to your druggist today and get a 50 cent box of Pyramid Pile Treatment.

Increase of Efficiency. “In mere fairness to them the full authority of the goveérnment must be substituted. The government itself will thereby gain an immense increase of efficiency in the conduct of the war and of the innumerable activities upon which its suecessful conduct depends. “The public interest must be first served and, in addition, the financial interests of e government and the financial interests of the railways must be brought under a common direction. The financial operations of the rail- ways need not then interfere with the borrowings of the government, and they themselves ¢can be conducted at a greater advantage. Investors in rail- way securities,may rest assured that their -rights and interests will be #s scfupulously looked after by- the gov- ernment as they could be by the di- rectors of the several railway systems. Immediately upon the rcassembly of congress I shall recommend that these definite guarantees be given: First, of course, that the rallway properties will be maint ed- during the period of federal control in as good repair and as complete eqnipment as when taken over by the government, and, second that the roads shall receive a net op- income equal in each case to the average net income of the three years preceding June 30, 1917, and I am entirely comfident that the con- gress will be disposed in this case, as n others, to see that justice is done ‘and full security assured to the own- ers and creditors of thg great systems which the government must now use under its own direction or else suffer serious embarrassment.
