RAILROADS TO BUILD NEW
EQUIPMENT AFTER THE WAR

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct 3O.-That the
railroads Of the country are sorely
pressed for additional equipment and
other necessaries of operation which
they cannot buy at the present time,
because of the prohibitive prices
caused by the European war, but that
they will probably go into the market
when the war is over and Offset in
some degree the big slump caused by
the sudden cessation of war bust
ness" is the hopeful after-the-war"
business conditions entertained by
railroad officials in Atlanta and the
South in general.
Discussing the subject yesterday, a
high official of one of the biggest
lines entering Atlanta expressed the
belief that the railroads, if encourag-
ed by a logical revision of some of
the existing laws affecting them, and
if given the ability to finance their
reasonable necessities, will take ad-
vantage of the stoppage of war orders
to enter the markets with very heavy
purchases as soon as peace is de-
clared, and that these large purchases
by the railroads will go far toward
maintaining the general business pros
perity of the country.
It has become an economic axiom
in America, as he pointed out, that
railway purchases measure general
prosperity" or, in other words when
the railroads are buying equipment on
a large scale the steel and iron indus
try prospers and all other lines Of
business meel the beneficial effects.

THE ALCAZAR

Cleo Ridgley and Wallace Reid, the
brilliant Famous Players-Lasky stars
who have established themselves as
the most popular couple on the screen,
will be seen at the Alcazar, on Mon
day, in the Jesse L. Lasky production
of "The House of the Golden Win
dows,' written especially for them by
Charles Sarver from the story by L.
Jefferson. 1t is Paramount picture.
Founded on an old fairy tale of two
children who climbed from their little
cottage to the house on the hill only
to discover that the golden windows
were made of nothing but the sun
shining on broken window panes, and
looking back they could see the same
golden effect on the panes of the
windows in their own little home, L. V.
Jefferson and Charles Sarver have
constructed splendid photo-drama.
The story is modern version of this
old fairy tale and the scenes are laid
il the green fields of California and
show in a striking manner how true
happiness is really at ones own fire.

Points About
Planting An Orchard
T. n. Mediation, Prof. Horticulture,
Ga. State College OF Agriculture.

T. n. Mediation, Prof. Horticulture,
Ga. State College or Agriculture.
Orchards should be planted in Geor-
gia before Christmas, though they are
sometimes planted later. Get the
plants delivered about the last of No
vember. When they arrive heel or
bank them till ready to set out. This
is done by digging a trench on the
north side of hill or house, putting
the roots of the trees therein and COW
ering them.
Peaches and trees that grow to sim
liar size should be set about 20 feet
apart each way, pears twenty-five feet
apart; apples 35 to 40 feet apart and
pecans so feet apart.
Dig a hole about two feet square
and two feet deep, pecans 8 to 4 feet
deep. Put the top soil and some well
decomposed barnyard manure, or a
pound or more of cottonseed meal or
bone meal in the bottom of the hole
mixing well. Prune off all twisted and
broken roots from the trees, set in
center of the hole and begin to fill
with top soil. Pack down thoroughly
As the dirt is being thrown in. Fill
higher than the surrounding surface.
The tree will show how deep it has
been in the nursery. Do not set in
the orchard more than one inch deeper
than that.
After planting, prune the tree back.
Peaches should be left from l foot to
IS inches and apples is inches to 2
feet high.

fruits adapted to all sections of Geor-
gia. The following varieties will, gen.

dent Wilson, in letter to Representa-
tive kitchin, March 28, 1915.
Nagging Control.
And so, my friends, what am here
for now is to say that the time has
come for general overhauling of the
laws of Congress that affect rail-
roads; an improvement in the ma
chinery for the bringing about of dis
patch of business, and an improve
ment in the machinery for bringing
about just assignment to the rail-
roads of what they have earned from
the Government; a proper form Of
legislation which shall exclude, as far
as possible, the nagging and irregular
control of interstate commerce, and
interstate railroads through State leg
islation, by the assumption by Con-
gress of the power it has to control
interstate railroads and interstate
commerce. - Ex-President VIM. H.
Taft.
One Sovereignty.
CALIFORNIA; experience has shown
that it is impossible permanently to
secure good results in dealing with
the instrumentalities Of interstate
commerce, the railroads, doing an in
terstate business, through the COM
missions of forty eight different
states, and that the only way is to
have the whole business of interstate
commerce and everything pertaining
to it, and therefore the whole bust
ness of and pertaining to the railroads
engaged in interstate commerce,
handled by the administrative officers
at Washington. There should be one
sovereignty to which all the great i'm
terstate corporations doing an inter-
state business should be reasonably
responsible. We cannot get perma-
nently good results out of forty or
fifty conflicting sovereignties.-Ex-
President Theodore Roosevelt.
National Regulation Inevitable.
No one would contend or expect
that forty eight different regulating
bodies with interests sometime at va
rance could efficiently regulate the
same subject at the same time, al
though that is exactly what we are
trying to do under our dual system
of Federal and State regulation of
railroads. AS we have gradually
grown and become transformed from
loose confederacy of States into
one great nation the necessity for
Federal instead of State control has
become more and more apparent con-
corning many matters of nation wide
importance-such necessity has been
reflected in a Federal postal system,
the national bank act, national bank
ruptcy act and more recently the Fed
eral reserve act and Federal trade
commission. Gradually, consistently
and naturally as / view it a change
in railroad regulation from State to
Federal is also taking place and the
thing most desired is that the COM
plete change shall be accomplished in
as brief time as practicable, con-
sistent with orderly ransition.-Dan.
iel Willard.

NATIONAL RAILWAY REGULATION
INEVITABLE SAY PUBLIC men

That public sentiment is rapidly
crystalizing in favor of national regu-
lation of the railways. has become
apparent through the recent express
sions of leading editors, publicists and
statesmen.
Generally speaking the country's
leaders and thinkers believe that the
transition from state to federal regu-
lation should and will take place in as
brief a time as is practicable. As
evidence of this sentiment, there fol-
low a few utterances by men of ma
tional reputation, which are of more
than passing interest:
Only One Master.
We must solve the problem along
lines of private ownership and Gov
eminent regulation. We must con-
slider the wisdom of substituting one
master for the forty nine masters
that regulate our commerce today
We must perfect a system of regula-
iton that win recognize that the trans
portation lines of America are great
public highways in which the people
are as much interested as those who
have invested their capital in them
that every shipper in America must
have equal rights in the transportation
OF his goods along these highways,
that rebates and determinations of all
kinds must be Of the past and pro-
hibited in the future, and we must
recognize that the man who is willing
to invest his money at a moderate
rate of interest in railroad securities
is not exploiting the public but is a
public benefactor.-U S. Senator Os-
car w. Underwood.
Our Efficiency at Stake.
In the meantime may l make this
suggestion? The transportation prob
lem is an exceedingly serious and
pressing one in this country. There
has from time to time of late been
reasons to fear that our railroads
would not much longer be able to
cope with it successfully, as at pres
ent equipped and coordinated. l sug-
gest that it would be wise to provide
for commission of inquiry to ascer-
tain by a thorough canvass of the
whole question whether our laws as
at present framed and administered
are as serviceable as they might be in
the solution of the problem. 1t is
obviously a problem that lies at the
very foundation of our efficiency as
a people. Such an inquiry ought to
draw out every circumstance and
opinion worth considering and we
need to know all sides of the matter
if we mean to do anything in the
field of Federal gislation.-Presi-
dent Wilson, in message to Congress,

Some Thoughts Worth While.

In his Sunday service, speaking on
the subject, 1.-THE Religion Of Jusus, !"
Rev. Morton Of the M. E. church said
in part:
mo greater revolution ever takes
place in the life of an individual than
when he fully accepts the teachings of
Jesus. A change of politics means
nothing in comparison with change
of heart. Because man believes
certain things politically does not
necessarily imply that there is any
moral basis for that belief. 1t is
only in religion that we find true
basis for morals, and Jesus taught
that in its deepest sense religion
is what We term love.
Religion, as Jesus taught it, was
not a mere supplement of life, to lie
looked upon as an extra edition to the
life of the individual, but it was to
be the very core of life. Thus, re-
ligion is not to be identified with any
special act but every act of the in
idvidual is to be guided by the re.
ligious motive, Religious activity is
not set apart from life in general,

The idea of making religion attract

1t is worthy of serious consideration,

what we are doing by writing this

and capable of great variety and
scope. For instance, substitute ten
mis-, baseball, picnics and fishing for
Sunday services, and to catch the boys
who are tough and need religious
training, but who shun the Christian
Endeavor and go to the movies, make
attendance interesting by supplying
free cigarettes, Nick Carter novels,
and free lunch.
