DO
HONOR TO CALVIN
Today the 4OOth Anniver-
Sary of Great Reform
er'S Birth.

Presbyterian believers everywhere
today paid tribute to John Calvin, the
reformer upon whose teachings the
Presbyterian creed is based. 1t is the
400th anniversary of his birth.
In honor of the day. all the Wash
tngton churches of this denomination
sent from their pulpits ferveEt words
OF tribute TO the life, character, and
achievements Of the man whose work
has been the guide post and inspira-
tion. of millions of churchmen, the
world over.
Calvinism and its value to the ,-orId
was told of by the Rev. DR.. Wallace
1sadcllHe at the New York Avenue
Presbyterian Church in a special SER
mon. Taking his text from the first
chapter and sixth verse of John, he re-
ferred TO Calvin as having been "a
man sent by God"
There was a man sent from God in
the early days, and he was John the
Baptist, said DR. Radcliffe. There
was man sent from God in the six
teenth century and he was John Cal
vim Calvin was the intellectual leader
OF his day. He was the organizer OF
religious truth. Battling all mis- life
with physical infirmities, he despised
the rich, and loved the poor. He gave
them a religion and elected to be one
of them. At twenty-seven years of age
he wrote the Institutes of Religion
and 80 commanded the attention OF the
Dying at hfty-four, Calvin had revo-
lutionized the intellectual world; had
founded the belief that serves men in
all parts OF the known world and viii

to come. Unduly severe. he gives US
challenge ana life today because of tRe
truths he taught"
Extoliing Calvin as great intellectual
giant, DR.. Radcliffe declared him to
have been founder of the American
school system.
THE American school system traces
II origin beck to Geneva and Calvin" he
said. The university system of today
IS hut monument TO Calvin's intellec-
tual foresight
Calvin has been blamed for the burr
ing of Cervetas," he continued, but
the spirit OF the time was TO blame.
and not Calvin. 1t vas wrong, but II
u was wrong. Professionalism and Cathol-
icism were wrong. because by those of
that faith II was considered that heregy
should be punished by death"
Concluding. DR.. Radcliffe declared the
word "Caivinism" to be misunderstood.
1T is a word I hesitate TO use,'' he
said. ''PredestinatiOn is not Ca1vinism.
nor did Calvin present that thought.
Calvinism does not rest upon any dis

ed as divine sovereignty-in other words,

MATTERS WHICH SHOULD
 APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC

Several petitions or bills are pre- sented to every General Assembly reg ulating charges of public service cor porat1onS in some particular, either by reducing the existing charges, or by changing fare limits, or by requiring additional conveniences or increased service Most of these bills are re- jected by the legislature, largely be- cause of the difficulty of intelligently deciding upon the complicated ques- tionS involved
 The Public Utilities Bill, reported to the present General Assembly, provid- ed for State commission, to be com posed Of experts who could devote their entire attention to the regulation
 of these public service corporations; ]; among the duties proposed for this commission was that of regulating the charges of public service corporations
 upon application of any interested municipality. It would be possible for such a com mission to act intelligently and judi ciously on the problems involved; for
 such a commission would have cumu- lative experience, technical knowledge, and the time necessary for a careful study of the facts.
 By public service corporations are meant railroads, street railways, gas companies, electric light and power companies, water companies and tele- phone companies.
 All of these corporations require spe- cial privileges from the public; that is, either the right of eminent domain, or The right to place something perma- nent in the public highways - gas pipes Or water mains, or railroad rails, or poles and wires.
 It has long been held that in return for these special privileges public ser vice corporations are under obligation, as a matter of common law, to fur rish the public reasonable service at reasonable rates. As the state grants
 these privileges to these corporations for this purpose substantially without
 cost, the public is clearly entitled to enforce this common-law obligation. Because of these special privileges
 public service corporations are com
 monly monopolies. Consequently, their
 rates are not controlled by competi- tion. This is an additional reason for Svesting in some state official or commission power to investigate, and, if necessary, regulate their charges. A hearing on the question of wheth- CT any supervision over the charges of these corporations should be vest ed in state commission has been as- signed by the Special Committee on Public Utilities for this afternoon at the Capitol.

WHARF DECLARED TO
 BE PRIVATE PROPERTY

Washington, June 2.-That steam boat company may exclude others from the use of wharves when owned exclusively by it was in effect decided in the Supreme court of the United States yesterday in the case of the Weems Steamboat Company of Bal timore, against the Peoples Steam boat Company. The controversy arose over the use of thirteen wharves on the Rappahannock River in Virginia, which are owned by the Weems com pany. The Peoples company is the owner of a rival line of boats on the same stream, and the Weems com pany sought to enjoin it from using it's wharves.
 The United States circuit court of appeals held, however, that a wharf is not private property in the sense that the public may be excluded from it, and refused to grant the injunction. The Supreme coure reversed that rul- ing and decided for the Weems com pany Justice Peckham announced the opinion of the court.
