WE FEATURE W1LBURN DRY S*y* Regulation lUipouibU For Doclino Rail Development New York City, Nov. 8.?(By the associated Press).?Government regulation is almost wholly responsible tor the decline of railroad development and existing shortage of transportation, Charles H. Markham, president of the Illinois Central railroad, told members of the Railway Business association at the annual dinner here tonight. For ten years before the war, ho said, unwise regulations kept down he rates and reduced the net return of the railroads, although wages, prices and returns earned in other lines of business were increasing. 'The outstanding fact regard ng the present shortage of transportation is that it has been met at the very beginning of a period of business re vival,' he said. In this respect it creates a situation unprecedented in our history? a situation which should cause every farmer and business man, every railway official, every public man, every wage worker, to pause and refle:t seriously. "In past periods of business revival the increase in freight business has gone on until it has reached a point 35 to 150 per cent higher than ever before. We may well ask ourselves whether, with the railways finding ?t difficult to surpass the freight record of 1920, they can be expected within i few months or year to handle such _in increase in tonnage as past experience shows would only be normal :n a period of general revival." Mr. Markham said the situation is due partly to the coal and shop employees' strikes but added that the large contributing factor was the more rapid development of the production and commerce of the country than the development of the facilities f the railroads. "Clearly it is essential to the wel I fare of the country that the railways should as rapidly as practicable, put their existing facilities in good condition. and that they should for some years rapidly improve and expand their properties," he continued. "The only thing which ever will enable and cause railways to carry out a sufIcient program of expansion will be to let them earn sufficient net return to raise the new capital required for hat purpose." Repea of the rate making prov:.ions of the Esch-Cummins Transportatoin Act would be the most deadly blow that could be aimed at railroad credit and the nation's good faith and prosperity, he said, adding 'hat it would tend to cause a chronic shortage of transportation which would seriously hinder all increase of production and commerce as long a3 it lasted. "It is plain to every man who chinks that the wages of labor can je paid, the income the farmer can jot, the profits that can be derived from business, depend in the long run upon the total amount of production and commerce that can be carried on. If the necessities, comforts and luxuries each of our people have is to be increased, we must increase our total production and commerce more rapidly than our population. We have always done this in America. But nothing could be more obvious than that the increase in production and commerce which is vital to the welfare of lal cannot be secured without a coresponding increase in transportation." Ukrainian Government Sentences Grafters To Death Kharkov, Russia, Nov. 8.?The Ukraine Soviet government has been making strenuous efforts to break up the practice of graft and bribery among state employees, and in this connection a trial ended recently ir which the two accused principals, M Meletensky, director of the ocate trading department, and his agent l Bakhmoutsky, were sentenced to bt shot. The prosecution charged that Meletensky and Bakhmoutsky, by an ingenious and extensive system of bribery and graft in disposing of state timber from one government department to another, had cleaned up some 20,000,000,000 Soviet rubles amounting at the time to about $50,000.

I President's Red Pi | Cross Proclamation ** Washington,' Nov. 10.?President Harding in s proclamation issued to- let day calling attention to the annual Gt membership rol call of the American la Red Cross, which begins tomorrow, th declared "there are peculiarly urgent pi reasons to appeal this year in behalf ro of an even greater generosity than si has been necessary in some other ui times." Notable among those reasons the p\ president mentions the situation in U I he Near East where he asserts mil- fi lions of people must look to more fav- d< ored national communities such as \v i he United States for the means of in life. He bespeaks the aid of the pi American people for the Red Cross as one of the chief relief ngencieR and bt the cooperation of Americans in the g support of all the organiztaions at ft work in that portion of the world. g> The proclamation follows: f< St ' To the American People: "The assurance, based on many ^ j cars' experience, that tnere will be prompt and generous response, makes . it always a satisfaction to direct publie attention to the annual member- t| :-hip roll call of the American Red ?( Cross. This year it will open on Armistice Day, November 11, and close on Thanksgiving Day, November 30. As President of the United States and also president of The C3 American Red Cross, I hereby proclaim November 12 as Red Cross Sunday, and invite all the people to unite ^ with their spiritual leaders in such observance of it as may promote a re- ? newed consecration to the gospel of t service based upon divine injunction ^ and sonctiorted by all good conscience. "By the terms of the congressional charter which called it into being, the American Red Cross is charged with ^ certain clearly defined duties and ob- ^ ligations. These it has continued, . during the past year, to discharge ^ faithfully and efficiently. There are peculiarly urgent reasons to appeal, . this year, in behalf of an even greater generosity than has been necessary in ^ some other times, because of the exIroordinary demands upon such serv- ^ ices of mercy and humanity. One of the most fearful disasters of all his- ^ tory has befallen the ill-fated Near Eastern area, where the lives of milw lions of unfortunate people even now ^ depend, and must continue for a long i inio f a on fVio iinfirintr liKnv. r.iitv of more favored communities. CI A very great sum is required to be ^ raised if the emergency shall be met; ^ and while the task is one to which all well-disposed peoples must contribute, our own country in virtue alike of its inspirations of humanity P and its fortunate endowment in material possessions, must be conspicu- p ous for both the great share it shall give, and the high spirit animating P' the gift. It is, therefore, asked that P cooperation be established between the Red Cross, the Near East Relief, and all other agencies which are con- ^ cerned to assist in dealing with this crisis. | "In the domestic field, demands conj tmue to press heavily upon the Red I Cross. The government is earnestly sc | seeking to insure to every diseased v< ' or disabled ex-service man the full cc I measure of care and help which national grntitude and simple justice . dictate. The aim must be to restore every service man to the best possi- , hie health and the largest opportunity for a normal and self-supporting i >ife. In this effort the government, the i army and navy, have gladly availed th' msclves of the assistance of the . Red Cross which, due to its nation- "( wide volunteer organization, has been l a constant and valued aid. "In the broad field concerned with in . | the- physical welfare of the people, sl ; the Red Cross, in sympathetic contact t(" with other organizations, and the fed- e r cral and state bureaus, has been par, licularly active in the establishment , and support of public health activities 1 foi the prevention of disease and the , encouragement of sound sanitation. In iis peculiar and historic field of w | disaster relief, the Red Cross has met ^ , the emergencies brought about by ' ' I the large number of floods and other '' j < rilamieies during the past year, and 81 ia still called upon to aid the suffer- P iiie in foreign lands due to war and 'v pestilence. For these reasons, regard- ' less of the multitude of local prob- vv 1 lenis in every community, the Amor- hi ' iccn Red Cross deserves well at the hands of the American people. "In the interests of our common ?' humanity and of the service which we '' ' owe to our fellow men, I invite my fel- !:1 low citizens to renew their allegiance to the American Red Cross during the period of the merbership roll call.

Harding." d< _ m or Swedish Auto Tax Will n( Build Better Roads ol Pi Stockholm, Nov. 8.?Swedish mo- 'ft toristB will begin to pay taxes on hj their vehicles and tires on January Hi 1, 1923.

For the first time this year it ha J ncome necessary for the Furman ag- j regation to post a hospital list, but f >rtunately it ts not of the first strin J ers, as some of them arc only suf f ?ring bruises. "Stubby" Bradburr ( affered a very painful break of his ' ght shoulder bone in tackling th J ummy this afternoon. Yesterday af- i ?rnoon "Nat" Hicks was unfortunat y \ breaking, his right collar bone hose men are on the reierve list and 3: leir unfortunate and untimely mis >rtune does not in any way encourge the first team, as they were in;rumental in helping to bring the arsity to a high degree of proficien- H 7. Pep meetings continue and the ? sirit is increasing by the hour on th * *mpus. Jud League has his 20 piec and working night and day and hatever else the Hurricaner and his >llowers may do they will have plen ~ ; of spirit and rooting to back the lithful list on the field. The team will embark Friday morn lg for Columbia. Coach Laval has ot announced where they will spend le first few hours before the contest ut it is surmised that they will b' a i some town near Columbia in ordei iat they may spend a quiet night and njoy a healthy workout Friday af?rnoon and rest overnight before th< ame Saturday.

The Gamecocks worked yesterday 1 ith on offense and defense. During le secret practice the kickers had a >ng session both at drop and place icking and a long session of dummy to rimmage against the freshmen, the ar irsity testing its new attack for ore than ap hour. That the Game icna art: uv is certain. Defense against forward passinf so came in for extended practice W) id great improvement was seen in lis department. Ju Interest in the outcome of the ^ irne is at fever heat. It is doubt- to il if Carolina men were ever more ?r orked up over a Clemson game ir W irmer years. Little else is talked tout and the dope Is all to the effect fe iat if Carolina can display a fight- u ig spirit and an attack and defense ich as it cut loose in the final quar r against Sewanee the big Furman s* even will have all it can do to bat- :R e on even terms. Those who are optimistic regarding ar Carolina victory point to the fact fe iat the team which will likely star' th le Furman game will be the one m hich finished the Sewanee affair hat combination was the best hi ktzge and Edgerton have turned ^ iose this year.
