Rail Consolidation Will Lessen Waste In Road Expense
Professor Ise Says Owner ship by Government and An Able Commission Will Help
"I believe that the consolidation of railroads will be an advantage because it will partially do away with the tremendous amount of waste in shipping, terminals, and upkeep," said Sara Brown of Concordonics, in an interview this morning.
"Consolidation has a great many possibilities and will undoubtedly become a reality within a show time, although it still leaves the question of service unanswered. Consolidation of railroads will probably lead to government ownership. None of the railroads is privately owned even now. There is the Sherman Anti-Contruction and the Interstate Commerce Commission which govern what the railroads shall do. Rates, service and management are practically in the hands of the government now," he continued.
Useless Waste in Large Cities
"The amount of waste, which is found in all of the large cities would be decreased a great deal by consolidation or government ownership. In New York, nine railroads bring in freight. In Chicago there are seven, three, and four railroads for freight. In Minneapolis and St. Paul, there are sixteen. In Chicago the produce has to be carted to the produce market and then to the retail market after being transported by railroads to seventeen different terminals. Here is a tremendous amount of people and someone who has to pay the bill.
"In this situation when consolidation is being argued, a commission of able men would be advisable. They are not going to argue the angles and their advice regarded in a final decision. Although as far as consolidation is concerned, the process has been going on for some years now, but the Commission based on the same financial basis.
Better Service on One Track
"If the Santa Fe should decide to build into St. Louis, it would mean that there would be 225 more miles of track to keep repaired, while with the consolidation of railways all three tracks will carry one track, and one railroad. There are many places where as many as three tracks run parallel for miles. This seems to me to be a waste of material. For this and other reasons the consolidation of railroads in the near future," Professor lae said in conclusion.

Approximately thirteen hundred dollars has been taken in at the W. G. A, book exchange this year. Last week I went to a store where were in no definite order until last year.

This term $700 has been taken in so far, and $600 was the total amount for last semester. The ex-ten sales ten per cent on each book sold.

New Dormitory to House Members of Each Class
The rumor that all the rooms in the new dormitory have been applied for is untrue, according to Mrs. F. E. Bryant, assistant dean of women, at UNC's campus (twenty applications), but there are rooms for 125 women, she said.
"The women to fill the rooms are not to be chosen from the freshman class alone," she added. It has been found at other places that it is better to have representatives from all four classes. There are to be kitchens and living rooms on all the floors, bathrooms and bedrooms. There will also be a dining room and offices. Applications for rooms may be left with Mrs. Bryant.
Legislature Will Try To End This Session By Saturday Evening
Important Measures Included in Final Test Between Houses And Governor
Topkapi, March 5—With the data set for the final test between the Governor, the House and the Senate, the Kansas legislature today began its deliberation of its session with the members determined to govern next Saturday night if possible.
Many important measures were still to be agreed upon, however, and the temper of the two houses was such as to indicate that there might be difficulties in reaching agreement promptly. The Senate today was still holding back the House resolution calling for adjournment next month but it was reported that the Senate did not renew on this resolution until given assurances that the House would pass its industrial court bill.
The industrial court measure was expected to furnish the big fight in the House this week, with many predicting that radical amendments would be made in the Senate measure.
The big scrap in the Senate was expected to come over confirmation of Governor Davis' appointment.
Today the ways and means committees of both houses were working in the remainder of the big appropriations, bills for the executive office, and bills for the city where the case here yet to be threed out in both vanches of the legislature.

Sketch Taken at Scarab Exhibition Still Missing
With the stolen stone still missing, the Scarab exhibition of drawings was sent on to Washington University today. The local chapter of Scarab has been forced to write the other chapters that the sketch was from an exhibition here, presumably by a student not of the department.
The sketch was the work of a student of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Kansas was the first place of exhibit on the schedule this year and due to the theft, the display of the particle is lost in all other chapters.

Professor Werner Talks To Unitarian Students
"That exposure to new ideas and different points of view, whether or not one believes in them, is preferable to ignorance," was the keynote of a talk by Prof. Henry Wormer of the department of chemistry at the student forum in the Ullman church Sunday.
The scientific mind should not be afraid to inquire into any man ter, to attempt to weigh correctly the evidence, and to draw just and impartial conclusions. An individual's reading should be broad enough to include both sides of a question, although he may already have partition convicions. The English are in general more liberal than in regard to civilizations upon which Mr. Werner is according to Professor Werner," due in part to the fact that many of their great writers are of radical tendencies."
