" Under governmental regulation, the railroads In this country were successful suc-cessful and prosperous. Under governmental gov-ernmental direction the railroads are in a desperate condition today. In 1916, the railroads were prosperous prosper-ous and had made the whole country coun-try prosperous. It was about this time that he government abandoned its constitutional function of regulation nd assumed the function of direct- ing the economic processes of the railroad rail-road business. Fixing wages, hours of labor and general conditions of service ser-vice are purefy economic functions, and are outside of constitutional Judicial Ju-dicial regulation.1 But these and many other economic functions have been taken sway from the owners of the railroads and assumed by the government. gov-ernment. When the railroads were prosperous In 1916, they paid 1S7 million dollar In taxes, and the average amount paid to employes was $892 a year. Under governmental direction, with practically practi-cally one-third of the railroads la bankruptcy, they are required by the government to pay over 325 million dollars a year In taxes, and the average aver-age wages of employes have been raised to $1780 a year .,: Under governmental direction a large number of locomotive engineers make their monthly mileage by working work-ing from ten to twenty days, for which they receive from $250 to $350 a month. An engineer on a Southern road takes s train 85. miles in two hours and twenty-six minutes. This is counted as a day's work. An engineer engi-neer on s Western road takes a train 78 miles In one hour and 54 minutes. Ha is on duty less than three hours, but Is paid for a full day's work On an Eastern road a conductor t on duty iiine hour swi , ten minutes a day tor 1$ days In the month This Is considered s month's work tor which the conductor receives $2S6.B2. The brekeman on this run also works ii days In th month for which he Is paid $213M y On June 1, 1S38, ninety-seven railroads rail-roads were In bankruptcy. In the first three months of 1938, railroads oper- atlng over 87 per cent of the total railroad mileage did not earn enough to pay the Interest and rents for leased roads, and the deficit of all the railroads rail-roads taken together was $106,000,000, Yet the railroads under governmental governmen-tal direction are farced to pay the highest wages In their history, and carry a tax burden of over 328 million mil-lion dollars a year. Railroad employes are a power In politics!

Thil Authentic Record j ' Of Any Gem It the Pearl Since the earliest days of history the pearl has Tjeen worshiped for its rare beauty. In the Book of Job and In the Talmud pearls are mentioned, men-tioned, and at the height of Rome's power the exquisite gems were in great demand by the loveliest women wom-en of the empire. While records concerning the pearl date back for more than 3.000 years and it is quite certain that the pearl was known before then, the first authentic record rec-ord of any gem Is that of the pearl Various legends surround the story sto-ry of the pearl and one of the oldest old-est is the belief that the gem originates origi-nates when a drop of dew falls Into the shelL Other stories say that the tears of the gods and of angels change into pearls as they fall toward to-ward the earth. This was probably the source of the legend that the pearl brings tears, which is entirely en-tirely wrong, as the old story meant that the tears of the gods were changed into gifts for mortal men, according to a writer in the Montreal Mon-treal Herald. The more layers there are to a pearL which Is not a mineral but composed of carbonate oi nme, me finer the sheen or "orient" of the gem, and it depends a good deal on the pureness of the water from which the pearl comes. Salt water pearls are generally called "Oriental" "Orien-tal" and are found to be white, with a touch of yellow; the Tahiti, which is a grade of white pearl witn a slight amount of sheen; Venezuela, Venezue-la, very white or very yellow, more transparent than the usual run of orientals; and the Australia, a very white pearl with almost no sheen.

Somo Fish Squeal, Grunt, Sob, Howl; Others Climb "Dumb as a fish" does not apply to all fishes, asserts a writer in London Lon-don Tit-Bits Magazine.. The red gurnard, so common on the coast of Devonshire, positively squeals when it is taken out of the water. The fisher-folk call it the cuckoo-fish. In the Gulf at. Mexico lives a fish known as the Grunt, or Drum. When he Is hooked he sobs pitifully; and the human angler who is so far moved by these lamentations as to put him back into the water is re warded with a squeak that is an un mistakable "thank you!" The Mai- gree, which may be caught along the whole eastern coast of the New world, enjoys the distinction of being be-ing the noisiest fish in existence. He makes a loud moaning sound, and croaks like a frog. His howls can be heard on shore when he Is five-and-twenty fathoms below the surface sur-face of the sea. . The .climbing perch of Java and Southern India has the further parrot-character of being able to climb. His name Paneira means, in the native na-tive TamiL tree-climber; scientists call him Anabas, which is Greek for "going up." In ordinary times these fishes live in rivers and ponds of fresh water. In times of drouth they crawl from the river-bed, making their way over the dry ground by means of their rough scales and fins, even scrambling up the trunks of trees in search of food.

Schultz, in 1727, made the first photographic copy of writing. In 1802, Thomas Wedgewood copied pictures by the action of light, Joseph Jos-eph N. Niepce produced the first-permanent first-permanent pictures, in 1814. Louis J. Daguerre, in 1839, made public the details of his daguerreotype process proc-ess of sensitizing a silver plate with Iodine and developing with vapors of mercury the image produced on exposure. ex-posure. Niepce's photographs were made on tin, coated with bitumen of Judea; this bitumen, which is soluble in essence of lavender, becomes be-comes insoluble when exposed to light. After 14 years of experimenting experiment-ing he was able to fix permanently the image of the camera on tin. For some years before his death Niepce was in partnership with Daguerre, Da-guerre, and later his son Isadore joined Daguerre in his work. Meaning of Name Blanche The name Blanche, of Teutonic-Latin Teutonic-Latin origin, while not entirely Inappropriate In-appropriate for a very white-skinned brunette, should as a rule be given only to blonde girls, for it means "white, or fair." It is a beautiful name, suggestive of refinement and daintiness, according to a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
