DISTRICT SCHOOLS
REACH RECORD IN
ATTENDANCE ROLL
Highest Mark in History
With No Congestion of
Pupils.

School attendance today reached the
highest mark yet attained In the his
tory of Washington schools.
The total day school enrolment on
November 15 was 52,113 pupils. rhe night
school enrolment to the came date was
1873, making fetal Of 5,492. or the
day school enrolment, 35,5SS pupils are
white and 1850 attend the colored
schools.
Even these high figures do not rerre-
sent the total attendance. Because of
the peculiar provision here that pupil
absent three days or more is stricken
from the rolls until q sufficient excuse
procures his reinstatement, the figures
do not reach, by several hundred. the
actual number OF pupils now attend
ing school. There are probably now
more than 5000 school children in the
District.
The figures reported today break even
the mildly year records Of other seasons,
A considerable influx Of pupils Is ex-
pected to come in when Congress con-
yenes and then several hundred more
will be added to the school rolls. I'e-
spite this large attendance no schools
are congested.

Rev. Sven Announces
Sunday Sermon Topic

Rev. E. Hez Sven, pastor of the
Capital Baptist Church, has selected
for the subject of his sermon tomor-
row night in the Typographical Temple,
"Why God Wants Washingtoniahs to
Do What They Do Not Want to Do"
Since the Capital Baptist Church was
organized its membership has grown
steadily. Services are held in the
Typographical Temple. but the congre-
CATION is growing so fast and in addi-
ton to the fact that there Is ltkeli-
rood of this church joining with an
other Baptist church in the city, a
church building will soon have to be
built to accommodate the parishioners.

RAIL PROBLEM TO
BE IN FOREGROUND
! AT COMING SESSION
Importance Attaches to Su-
preme Court Decisions in
Rate Appeals.

That the country is confronted with
another era of the most serious sort of
agitation over the question of how the
Government shall control the railroads
y the view expressed by many men,
bers of Congress who are returning to
Washington.
The widespread dissatisfaction over
the Court of Commerce and the fact
that its abolishment Is likely as the
result of the antagonism 1t has stirred
up are facts that point in the direction
Of q renewal of trouble over the rail-
road question.
While adverse sentiment will probably
drive the Commerce Court out of ex-
istence the question of regulating rail-
roads will still exist. Once the Com
n,srce Court is abolished. the railroads
will appeal from the Interstate Com
merce Commission to the circuit courts.
The cir cult courts will proceed to do
the very things the Commerce Court is
doing, and the shippers will in no re-
spect be relieved.
II Up to Supreme Court.
The only tribunal that is in position
10 solve the present troubled situation
and do 1t speedily Is the Supreme Court
of the United States. The Interstate
Commerce Commission has appealed
IIOIn ueClSlOHS VI tle SOItlTneTCe SOuIt
In three instances. Decisions of the STU
preme Court in these cases are ex-
pected the coming spring.
High officials of the Interstate Com
hnerce Commission do not hesitate to
say that a crisis Is at hand. They de-
clare that II the Court of Commerce
can 90 ahead As II has been doing, and
block the commissions orders as 1t
sees At, then the commission will be
helpless, Government regulation will b.
failure, and there will be just one
outcome, the doctrine of Government
ownership will be advanced and 1t will
be impossible to resist 1t.
Highly Important.
Z Under the circumstances, the appeals
to the Supreme Court become highly
important, and there promises to be
as keen concern about the decisions in
these cases as in the oil and tobacco
decisions. The probabilities are that
II the Supreme Court says the Com
merce Court has all the power 1t has
assumed. and Congress has not legis-
lated the Commerce Court out Of office
by the time the Supreme Court hands
down a decision, then steps will be
taken to limit the jurisdiction of the
Commerce Court by distinct and dras.
