Many persons suppose that the rail roads were turned back to their own ers and managers in 1920, but "this is only one of the half-truths that will not bear investigation," declared C. Dillon, assistant to the nhnirman of the-western committee on public rela tions of the Association of Railway Executives, in an address before the Chamber of Commerce here today. Mr. Dillon asserted that "nothing could be farther from the truth" than the impression that the railways "are trying to break down tho unions, and that they are eager to reduce the J men s wages. "The truth is we have about all the government in railroads right now that the business will stand. It is tho government which says what the rate is to be and how much the roads may be permitted to earn if they can do it; it is the government which con trols wages and it controls the condi tions under which tho men shall work. All the reports are made and the book-keeping of the railroads is done according to tho rules of the United States government through the Interstate Commerce Commission and upon forms prescribed by that commission.

The principal interest in the Nebraska primary el ections today centered in the race for senatorial nomination on the re publican ticket, in which R. B.

A meeting of the allied premiers to discuss repa rations problems is expected within the next ten or fifteen days, probably in 6omo Italian city.

"We are now facing an entirely new order, a new labor condition. Wh-.-a the United States Rail-oad La bur Board made the largest advance in wages ever recorded, amounting, indeed, to more thai 720,000,000 a year, the railroads accepted the de cision without resistance. The men at that time did riot .question the juris diction of the board in making this enormous advance.

Rates have been reduced since last January $400,000,000 $265,000,000 approximately more than wages have. been cut, based on the earnings of 1921, or $600,000,000 if we compare with 1920. I "If total earnings do not increase very materially, the rate reduction's and the recent wage cuts will allow the railroads about 3 1-2 percent on their valuation.

It is estimated that there are five thousand foreign residents in Japan at present, exclu sive of Chinese, so it was somewhat surprising to the uninitiated to find an English language paper recently .started claiming a circulation of 45, 000. The editor explained, however, that he expected that figure to be cut in half after the novelty had worn j off, but was confident that a eircula- tion of 20,000 would be maintained. Probably half of the foreign pop ! ulation he estimated would take the paper while for the other twenty thousand lie. would have to rely on j the Japane-e students-.

Webb and Doughton certainly bit off two likely tallies with wonderful running catches in the outfield. Hardly a local player, however, can be singled out for feature, each one taking care of hi., respective territory and batting the bull at will. Lefty Wilson, pitching for the vis itors, was apparently in fine shape to withstand the hot weather, but he was uni.ble to stop the slugfest of the Tarboro aggregation. Thifer showed his ability to tight- en up in the pinches, and with run ners on base, he could cut the cor tiers and fool the breeze from a bat I swung into the air. In only one frame did the visitors push over a runner, this coming with two down and the opposing pitcher up. It was evidently a case of letting up, while Lefty drove for two bases and scored on a single.
