ROME—Eduardo Torre. high commissioner of Italian railroads, probably has the most difficult task of‘any of the lieutenants of Premier Mussolini. He is endeav oring to convert the railroad sys tem. with its unenviable record of deficit, maladministration, scan- rial anil graft, into a profitable, ef ficient and going concern. To help him Signor Torre has the backing of 50,000 Fascist:' rail road inch, who have * formed n union. While they are in a minori ty as compared to the total of 240,000 railroad employees, still they exert a strong influence which is entirely for -reform and improvement. They declare they will work 16 hours a day 1 , if neces Nations Are in Tilt Over Priceless Contents of Re cently Discovered An cient Tomb.

He fought in the war as a captain, and won four medals for bravery. Ho is also n doctor, and has 'had experience in organized sanitation. He is con fident of success in his new werk He declares that the former meth od of permitting the railroads to be managed by the employees shall cease'and give place to bus iness efficiency. Torre is not talk ing much about his job from a dis tance; he is already |in the midst of it. The first thing he did was to abolish the “Little Parliament" or "Parliamentind” of railroad union delegates who in the past exercised a veto in the railroad’s management. This consisted of 700 men, each possessed of an an nual pass over all lines, and with ! freedom to absent themselves from ! their duties wherever they felt in- j clincd. With the abolition of the “Par- I liamentino,” n telling blow has been dealt to the “red” unions who have, up until now, ruled the labor affairs of the Italian lines with an iron hand. These ‘red” unions or dered general strikes, suspension of trains, and boycotts without number. While Torre will not abol ish the “red” unions as such, he will insist that no employee of the .railroads carry on a campaign against the state. Torre is also putting a rigid end to the pass evil, which had reach-' cd unbelievable proportions. Twen ty-one thousand passes were out, and last year 2,000,000 free tickets were issued to railroad men and merttbers of their families. The system cost the railroad adminis tration, between 30,000,000 and 40,000,000 lire a year. Between 30,000 and 40,000 rail road men daily reported them selves sick and collected sick bene fits from the state. This is where Torres medical experience stands him in good stead, and the prac tice is being handled drastically. Torre discovered, among other things, that some railroad men worked not more than 50 hours n year, and in addition to .checking this custom, ho Is getting rid of n large number of superfluous em ployees. The pilfering and robbery on Italian railways has been on such an immense scale that it has cost the State 120,000,000 lire in indem nities to those injured, in addition to 30,000,000 lost through thefts of coal. Torre ie determined to stop this state of affairs and to this end proposes to organize a railroad police force of Fascist! who will repress thievery with rifle bullets, if needs be. called by government. MR. DOLLAR AND HIS FRIENDS From the position of a passing acquaintance to that of one of Mr. Dollar’s well known friends ought to be'one of our cherished ambitions. * * We are glad to make the acquaintance df Mr. Dollar, but after the meeting we should endeavor to have, this acquaintance ripen into lasting friendship. Mr. Dollar extends the hand of friendship to us. Sometimes, however, we show him such scant courtesy that he cannot be very severely criticised for seeing but little of us. This friend ship must be mutual. ‘ - Mr. Dollar would like to work for you but does not like tem porary employment. He works best in a steady job. His real friends are those who use him rightly. They employ him to run stores, factories, railroads, mines—in fact all success ful commercial enterprises are the result of his handiwork. This bank has become acquainted with many of his friends. Can we help to properly introduce you to him?

EGYPT CLAIM8 IT Tills treasure, burled In the tomb of Tutankhamen, comes un der that classification and the Egyptian government already has laid claim to it. But pressure may be brought to bear by the British government to cause Egyptian officials to modi fy their stand. In that case, some of. Tutankhamen’s treasures muy find their way Into American mu seums. Amerlcn’s claim Is based on the contention that tho treasures of ancient Egypt belong to the world and that America, as one of the leading nations 6T the present world. Is entitled to share in them. WHAT TREASURES ARE Some of the treasures over which the dispute Is waged are: Three gilt lite-sixe images of human beings. Glided heads of animals wlti eyes of jewels. Carved couches inlaid with ivory and seml-precibus stones. Chests of ebony and Ivory with gilt inscriptions, containing Tut ankhamen's finery. Tutankhnmen's state throne, en crusted with Jewels.. heavy chair thickly set with turquoise, cornelian lapis and oth er stones. Two life-sized statnes of tho king with gold work. Four chariots encrusted with semi-precious stones. Exquisite boxes and alabaster 1 vasos. • j Richly .embroidered clothing of the king and queen. The find could be sold for moro than n dozen millions on tho basis of Its actual value alone h it its scientific and archeological worth makes It absolutely priceless. OLD KING TUT’ MY8TERY MAN King Tutankbaipen was Egyptian king of the eighteenth dynasty. He reigned about 1350 B. C„ or 3270 yeareago. His origin ta'doubtful. He gain' ed the Throne by marrying Prin cess Ankb-Nes-Pa-Aten, most beauOful woman In Egypt and daughter of King Armcn-Hotop IV. The mystery of Tutankhamen's life la hla; He destroyed the beau tiful city of El Amarna and order ed hla subjects to leave it and settle In Thebea. El Amarna had been constrct- ed as a perfect city of contentment by Akhnaton an earlier king, Akb naton harried priests and founded a new religion df hla own. Tutankhamen restored the old faith. BREST-LITOVSK, Poland — March second will be the fifth an niversary of the treaty of Brest Litovsk. Joffe and Radek and their Bolshevik associates penned their signature unwillingly to the hate ful paper after General Hoffman had' pounded the treaty table and announced the Germans would adr vance immediately upon Petrograd and Moscow if the Bolshcviki de layed longer. That treaty was superseded by the treaty of Rapollo, which Ger many and Russia signed so unex pectedly during the Genoa Confer-' cnce last spring. But the business relations which Germany hoped would result in an exchange of considerable amounts of German manufactured goods for Hussion raw .materials have been disap pointing. German businessmen. cannot deal with the Bolshevist j trade-commissions any more suc cessfully, apparently, than the business men of other nations which have not established treaty relations with Lenine’s govern ment, It takes money or raw materials to carry on business. Bolshevist Russia lacks both. Its meagre shipment of grain from a country which is starving, and its slight exportations of wood, flax and other raw materials have been a grave disappothtment to all Eu rope. Soviet Russia’s contention that a blockade is maintained against it by its enemies is pretty generally discredited. Europe gen erally believes Russia’s govern ment monopoly’of import and ex export trade is a barrier which will prevent anything like norma! trade relations, with FIND BOLSHEVIKI VERY EXPENSIVE 22 Perish in This Last Cold Wave 8T.

Germany has found the Bolshe vists costly and unsatisfactory as sociates. The Brest-Litovsk treaty put Russia definitely out of the irreat war, and was a hard blow temporarily for the Entente. But it also gave impetus to the unrest in the German army and navy, and was an important factor in the breaking up of tl^ empire of Wil liam II. 1 . ■ The signing of the Rapollo treaty was snothei* doubtful exper iment. It won almost universal from the rest of the world, and probably delayed for a long period the recognition of Russia by sol vent nations which might lend her the financial assistance *so neces sary for her reconstruction. Since signing the Brest-Litovsk treaty the Bolshevists have enter ed into at least 50 other interna tional pacts. It was the forerunner of the largest crop of-internation al conferences any other Euro pean power ever had in ten times as many years. The Bolshevists have expelled their enemies from most of the Czar’s old regime. They have made peace with Po land and their Baltic neighbors. They have sjgned treaties with Persia and Turkey, and have fed erated various so-called govenv ments in Europe and Asia which geographers have never been able to define. , • But not a single first-class pow er has granted them recognition unless Germany be ranked as such. Their diplomatic exploits have not yet yielded results wh*re Lenine and Trotzky most -desired them. The promises of peace and prosperity which Lenine and Trotzky made to quiet the clamor caused in Russia by the Brest- Litovsk treaty have not been real ized. Land, bread and peace were their three favorite worts five years ago. The peasants have the iand, but many of 'them aw stray ing on it. •Last of Those Who Were in Sea Wrecks, Await Rescue Boats (By MILTON BRONNBR) LONDON—The British cartoonist with most punch In Ms cartoons that make people think and the maximum of deftness In his drawings «»»* make them laugh is a New Zealander.
