surplus was necessary for the main tenance of the credit of the road to withhold the granting of the dividend at a time when you know a demand for an increase in wages was to be made, which necessarily would impair a r~~tion of your net revenue?'
 "No, sir,'' emphaticallyb returned Pre-Iuent Brown.
 Was the question considered?" sug- gested Mir. Brandeis, "in view of the eff feet of that action upon the credit of the New York Central and upon it's ability to borrow money in the markets of the world?"
 q do not recall" replied President Brown, whether 1t was or not, but there is no question that the increase of the dividend to 6 per cent made it possible to dispose of on satisfactory terms s40,000,000 bonds of the com pany.'
 After concluding his line of ques- tioning of President Brown, MT. Bran deis, in response to inquiries by Chair man Knapp and other members of the commission, indicated his purpose to show that if the New York Central and other railroads in the eastern territory were managed with the highest degree of industrial efficiency it would be cas- fly possible for them to make dividends for heir stockholders and the desired Improvements in service and of equip mont without resorting to an increase of rates. He said he would put men on the stand who would explain how this could be done.
 When you find such men," inter jected President Brown, kindly send me list of the first five or ten Of them. I say this in all seriousness. They are just the sort of people I am looking for and I want them in New York and on the New York Central railroad as soon as I may get them"
 The hearing will be continued to- morrow with J. c. Stewart of the Erie railroad as the final witness for the rail- roads.

Poem to Turner

Before disbanding into the cool and darkness of an early morning the muses got busy again and from the lips of all present came this compli- ment to Oscar C. Turner of Birming- ham, the retiring Jupiter:
  Now, this is where we say farewell to Oscar; He's done his duty like a little man, Hes worn his voice completely out with talking, Until now 1t sounds like nails Inside a can. But his smile is just as beautiful as anyone could wish, It covers up his face, you know, just like a jellyfish. His words are just as snappy, his talk Is just as happy. As if he wasn't climbing off the perch. D

President Ford Presides

The spread last night was one of the most resplendent in the recent his tory of this convention city. The Hill- man ballroom was gayly bedecked in United States flags, and the tables were sparkling in silver and cut glass. In addition to the members of the fra ternity several distinguished guests were present, the list including Senator Joseph F, Johnston, Gen. Luke E. Wright of Memphis, Congressman Oscar Underwood, Congressman Joseph W Byrne of Tennessee, Lieut.. Gov. Henry B. Gray Mayor Culpepper Exum. Pres ident of the City Council Harry Jones and Prof. E. B. Kay of the Univer- sity of Ala bama.
 A. H. Ford, president of the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power company. presided in graceful manner and by the time of speaking those about the burdened board were in the proper frame of mind to indulge his witticisms. While there was no set list of speakers and no subjects stale or dry, the distinguished guests were called upon to express their opinion of the descendants of Jupiter-none of which acquiesced until the descend ants had promised not to express their opinions of the guests. Later the de- scendants, ,or many of them, were called upon for expressions and these, with comments which provoked laughter and by operations which thrilled and inspired to nobler things. expressed their love for their country their flag their fraternity and for the members

Many Songs Sung

But the Jovians did not depend on oratory or a rare menu or on the soft strains of a string band dreamy as if from the heart of a lotus eater, to make the evening memorable. From the pages of the Jovian song book none of the songs of which were claimed to be original, save one-the members in the lyric tenor of a mock CT and the bass of venerable king of the frog pond, caused the rafters to ring in reverberating their senti- ments. They first sang 'The Sons of love-" in the beginning to the tune of "Tammany," and in the end to the tune of "Old Heidelburg." Then in America they swore allegiance to the stars and Stripes" Then they sang "A Stein Song" and emptied a stein. Their hearts then beat fast to the strains of "Auld Lang Syne," and each man would have embraced his brother but for the ring
 ing of the fork of Jupiter on a cham pagne glass. The "Cuddle Song" served to wipe away the tinge of sadness and then, in merry oh orus, Down in Jungle Town" tore loose from hundred breasts, shaking the foundation of the hotel pile and causing mice to scramble in the ceiling before what seemed an impending disaster.
