THE BIBLE IN THE SCHOOLS
The State Is a Moral Person, Account
able for Its Citizens, Declares Reader.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Many good things have been said
nv YOUR correspondents in favor OF the
reading Of the Bible in our public schools.
7 wish to add to these that the state 1t
self IS a moral person and accountable
for the morals OF its citizens. This is the
chief reason why il should require the
Word OF God TO be read daily in its
schools.
The contention that religious instruc-
ton belongs exclusively TO the family is
based on a wrong definition of religion.
1t is q wider term than ecclesiasticism.
The fear expressed by one correspond
ent that great harm would result from
reading certain portions OF the Bible
without comment (the passage cited being
Chrlst's saying: II come not to send
peace on earth but sword'D carries one
back to Friar Buckingham's fears of the
evils that would result from the circula-
ton OF Tyndales New Testament Thus
where Scripture said No man that layeth
his hand to the plough and looking back
is 1T for the kingdom OF God VIII
not the ploughman when he readeth these
words cease from his plough? And so
also when the simple man reads the
words IL thine eye offend thee pluck It
out and cast 1t from thee incontinent he
will pluck out his eyes. and 80 the whole
realm will be full OF blind men. 10 the
great decay Of the nation. The whole
realm will come into confusion"

MIR. Bryan on the Tolls Controversy

In article in "The COmmoner' Mr.. Bryan
wrestes vigorously with the boyle OF dislOyalty to
platform promises. II is naturally something Of Il
struggle before the Secretary of State puts his OPP
ponents shoulders squarely TO the mat since IN his
long and earnest career in politics sticking TO the
Democratic platform and trying 10 get others 70
stick TO IL has been Of Mr.. Bryan's favorie att
tudes. He is under more embarrassment than Mr.
Wilson il In disposng Of the tolls declaration
Of the Baltimore platform. The President merely
stood the national platform while Mr.. Bryan not
only stood on 1t but was Of the subcommittee
which drafted IT, In pointing out now that the
coastwse tolls exemption clause il in conflict with
the general antishp subsidy clause he has TO admit
that the platform was prepared without proper
care and in arguing that the more general decara-
ton should prevail against the specific he
has TO run counter TO the ordinary rule Of constrc
ton that the more specific statement must qualify
and act as n limitation on the less specific one.
Mr. Bryan's logic may be little strained but his
courage is high and his heart r. in the right place.
Like Mr. Wilson, he Is willing 10 say that even If
the platform WIS right two years ago IL II all wrong
now Conditions alter points Of view and opposi-
ion platform makers often lind after they get into

an old controversy.

NEW YORK. April S.-Speculative
selling OF stocks increased today. and
while the movement was irregular the
prevailing tendency was downward.
Trading was considerably heavier
than during the unnaturally dull mar
kents al the opening Of the week. A
violent slump in Canadian Pacific gave
the market "a setback at the opening.
The sweeping reduction in freight
rates ordered by the Canadian Railway
Commission led TO large offerings OF
the stock. IL was forced under 200 for
the first time since 1911, showing a
loss of points at the days low price.
After a general decline of small pro-
portions, the market stiffened for a
time under the lead Of the coalers
which were estimated by Lackawan-
mas victory In the antitrust suit. The
rally was hort lived, however. running
up 10 a point or more in a few cases.
The afternoon decline was infiu-
enced by further indications of unsat-
isfactory Business conditions. Lacka-
wanna Steefs quarterly report showed
a deficit of $445. 600 compared with a
surplus of $4,000 last year. Idle
freight cars increased nearly $1,000
in the last half Of March. The weekly
