DRASTIC CHANGES
IN RAILROAD BILL
Senate Committee Makes Mar
ket Valuation Basis for the
Merging of Roads

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE ad-
today in the senate committee on COM
merce so as to make commercial or
market valuation of railroad properties
by the interstate commerce commission
a condition precedent to the merging,
consolidation or reorganization of roads
subject to the interstate commerce law.
This change, one of the most drastic
yet made, opens the doors only to valu-
alton of properties whose merger is
contemplated. The committee has not
by this action Endorsed the various
schemes for physical valuation of all
railroad properties in accordance with
many bills introduced in both houses
of congress.
The amendment imposes a handicap
on such consolidation as the Hartman
merger of the Union and Southern Pa
cifc lines
The bill, in section Ia, authorizes a
new combination, In cases of reorgan-
fzation, consolidation or merging of
two or more railroads, to issue stock
or bonds up to the par value of the
welded corporations.
The committee amended materially
the section prescribing conditions un-
ueT WHICH u IdilFOdQ CORPORATION may
acquire the stocks or bonds of another
and noncompeting railroad by the issue
Of its own stocks and bonds.
The committee hopes to report the
bill to the house next week.

A Prayer for Children.

o thou great father of the weak,
lay thy hand tenderly on all the
little children on earth and bless
them. Bless our own children who
are the life of our life, and who have
become the heart of our heart.
Bless every little child friend who
has leaned against our knee and
refreshed our soul by its smiling
truthfulness. Be good to all chill
dren who crave in vain for human
love, or for flowers and water, and
the sweet breast of nature. But
bless with a three-fold blessing the
young lives whose tender shoulders
are already bowed beneath the yoke
of toll and whose glad growth is be-
ing stunted forever Let not their
little bodies be utterly Slapped, and
their minds given over to stupidity
and the vices of an empty soul. We
have all jointly deserved the mill
stone of thy wrath for making
these little ones to stumble and
fall. Grant all employees of labor
stout hearts to refuse enrichment
at such a price. Grant to all the
citizens and officers of states which
now permit this wrong the grace
of holy anger. Help US to realize
that every child in our nation is in
very truth our child, a member of
our great family. BY the holy child
that nestled in Mary's bosom, by
the memories of our own childhood
ljoys and sorrows, by the sacred
possibilities that slumber in every
child, we beseech thee to save us
from killing the sweetness of young
life by the greed of gain. e Walter
Rauschenbusch in the American
Magazine.

Metropolitan Rowdyism.

Evidence that rowdyism on the part Of
the young male members of a community
is result of association rather than of
parental or home influence was afforded
the other day in New York by the appear
ance before Mayor Gaynor of a number
Of we'll dressed middle-aged refined wom-
en- asking him to intervene in behalf of
their sons, who had been arrested for
disturbing the public on the street rail-
way lines on Sunday These lads had
been caught in the playing of rough
pranks such as have made Sunday travel
on the transportation lines of New York
a serious discomfort and even a danger
fof some years past. The mothers as
sured the mayor that their sons had al
ways been we'll behaved and they could
not understand why arrests were made in
their particular cases.
The fact is that a great many parents
do not know the company their sons keep
or the manner In which they comport
themselves in public So many boys are
nowadays left wholly to their own devices
that few fathers or mothers can be as
sured at any time of the whereabouts or
the occupations or the associations of
their sons. In a large city like New York
particularly the boys are permitted to de-
velop according to their own whims and
likings. Parental discipline is spasmodc
and severity replaces judgment. The par
ents themselves are too busy finding
pleasure or making money. hustling in
business or in society, to take upon them
selves the full responsibility for the up
bringing of their children. The apart
ment house life of the metropolis mill
tates against parental efficiency.
