I ccrolary of Transportation Provided in T:ar.? Reorganized Interstate Comr.icrce Commission With Regional Divisions as Final Court. Washington, Jan. 8.?Railroad excut ive.5 h ive decided to recommend i congress a system of unified pri. management of mail lines with tior.c public control exercised by a ecretary of transportation in the! ' r??i(ier.t's cabinet and a reorganizd interstate commerce commission ich regional divisions acting as ourt cf last resort in rate disputes. 'his becrme known here today coin-| : !cntal with the disclosure of the nterstate commerce commission's atitude that railroads should be re-, u;*ned to private management with-j i a "reasonable period" to allow forj jreparations and readjustments and mder "broadened, extended and am-| >lified governmental regulation." The commission's announcement vas made by Commissioner Edgar E.! }lark, testifying at the senate intertate commerce committee's hearing i >n proposed.railroad legislation, to' vhich the railway executives' pro>osed plan will be presented tomor-: ow or Thursday. The commission pposed indefinite continuance of; fovernment ownership or operation; ?f railroads at this time and outlined . cumpreiieiisive pian j.ux ic^iaiatiun vhich would permit elimination of mnecessary competition, pooling of acilities, government prescription of naximum and minimum rates and tandards of service, government diection of railroad extensions and fi-t lancing and direct cooperation beween federal and State regulatory odies. Commissioner Wooley disented in part, advocating Director Jeneral McAdoo's proposal that gov-" nment control be extended for five^ ears to provide a test period. The interstate commerce commieion's suggestions were first alternates to Mr. McAdoo's extension plan o far received by the senate comlittee. Most of the commission's uggestions are understood to be emodied in the railroad executives lan, which also proposes permaent retention of -a greater part of he reforms effected by the railroad dministration. The interstate commerce commis[on statement to the senate commit se referred repeatedly to "a feder1 body" to exercise public control ver railroads, but it did not specify whether this was to be the commis:on itself or some other agency. The lan of the railroad executives, on iie other hand, proposes to give to e secretary of transportation broad owers to coordinate and unify raiload facilities whenever demanded y the public interests; to distribute affic over various lines for the pur>se of relieving congestion and to squire the joint use of terminals. Regardless of what line of policy ; followed by congress in reterminig the future of railroads, the commission's statement s?id there should 0 legislative provision for prompt icrger without friction of railroads 1 time of war or other emergency )p a Cough | k Up a Cold ! at removes the cause by , hese elements contained vcr Peptones, Iron, Alan hates ? soon create an ; e cold and prevents its \ ninety per cent satisfac- 'i IS PROOF s Lnrjranse, N.C. \ "For years I suffered with a chronic ' oujrh, so I could not sieop nights and , onriy-.-,jf?rl tn lr>se? firph.

The commission said conditions ( found in England, France and Italy idicated a strong demand for staple agricultural products of this country such as wheat, meat, sugar, cotton ilid wool and that prices "will be teady and at a high level" if there is reasonable provision for shipping facilities and a cooperative effort on the part of the allied governments to organize for production and dis-1 tribution.

One of tho most admirable movei?r<ts so far started in memory of our heroic dead is that begun by a church in Tacony, Pa., to plant trees .o keep green the memory of those who gave their lives in the service^ of humanity. The movement has aj double value?it is not only memor-j ial, but is "a kind of reparation to' universal nature for the devastation' f some of her fairest countrysides." Xo finer tribute could be paid the ^ons of South Carolina who died in, the war than that our people should plant and suitably mark trees in their memory'. Let each community thus, honor its dead with a living memor-J ial. THE TREE. By Joyce Kilmer (Who gave his life in France.) I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the ^earth's sweet flowing breast. A tree that looks at God all day Vnd lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain Who intimately lives with him. Poems are male by fools like me, But only God can make a tree. -1 Wl w-fc. -mm /% I summons, r or Kelier. The State of South Carolina, County of Abbeville. Court of Common Pleas. VV. F.
