Wise and Liberal Policy OF Virginia
Railroads.

The announcement In The Suns
dispatches yesterday that the rail-
roads OF Virginia will haul material
for the Improvement of the roads OF
the State at the actual cost Of trans
portation is evidence of broad minded.
wise and liberal management. Not
only will this be done. 1t is stated,
but all the machinery and men to
be engaged in the road work will be
hauled free OF cost In the general
system of road making in any OF the
states of the Atlantic Slope much
transportation is required. As in
Maryland. so in Virginia, in many OF
the counties suitable material for
roadmaking is abundant. but there are
many other counties in the aliuvial
lsections where there Is none. and Ut
must be hauled. The cost OF this
hauling has been one of the most
serious difficulties In the way Of the
Maryland Road Commission. The
policy OF the Virginia roads is the
wise policy and shows that the man
fagers OF those corporations are alive
to their own interests. For il is GER
tain that no interests are more vitality
concerned in good wagon roads lead
ing to their stations and traversing
generally the territory served by the
railroads than the railroads them
selves. Nothing stimulates sgrieul-
tural production more surely than
good roads. They invite population
and promote railroad travel They
convert a dead country where there
Is no production and no activity into
a live country which produces freight
Cor the railroads and invites visitors
who use the railroads. A railroad
which trsverses country where the
reads are impossible during certair
months gets no freight at the way

months. and but few passengers
Therefore IN pursuing this hOeral poll

Something More Than a Manipulation.

Something More Than Manipulation.
Among the financial buccaneers,
whose methods have aroused so niue.
public hostility against corporations
in general and railroad corporations
in particular, Hartman was easily
first. No means were tco unscrupul-
Gus IL the END could thereby be at
tanned; and Harriman's purpose, to
consolidate the trunk lines west o
the Mississippi into a system that
should dominate the trade of the
country, was pursued reckless OF
morals and often dangerously close to
violation Of the written law. But
Hartman was something more than
a manipulation of stocks. The proper
ties that had come under his control
have been developed wonderfully
Even some Of the railroads that
were almost Quilted in the process oil
acquisition have prospered.-Philadel-
phia Record.

Nos, Important Figure Of Finance.

The death Of Mr. Hartman removes
the most important figure OF the

Y. M. c. A. BIBLE STUDY CLASSES.


Commenting upon figures published
by an exchange, this paper last Sun
day expressed surprise at the sup
posed fact that only 1000 members
of the Young Meas Christian AS
ISOLATION of America we're members OF
the association Bible classes. We are
indebted to Mr. Eugene King. acting
secretary of the local Y. NJ. c. A.. for
the information that these figures
we're so far from correct that we can
only suppose that they were the re-
suit of typographical error.
Mr.. King says:
The Associations OF North America
conducted last year 5000 Bible
classes. with 4 total enrolment OF
1855. while the reported conversions
to christian life during the year were
20,1f6. OF our total membership OF
456.927., 1924 are Christians. Our
membership is open to all men OF good
moral character. irrespective Of their
religious beliefs"
AS membership In the Bible study
classes is entirely voluntary on the
part of the members. and considering
that a large number OF the members
are affiliated with Bible study classes
outside of the association. 1t would
seem that the percentage of members
enrolled In the association Bible
classes is rather large than other
wise.
