PUBLIC DEVOTION NEEDS

Washington churchmen are anxious
Commissioners regard the influenza
situation as sufficiently improved to
warrant the reopening Of the
churches, which were closed as a
measure Of prevention against the
spread Of the disease.
!, Although no move has been made
toward that end, 1t is expected that
if the disease diminishes in preva-
lence this week, as the present tend
ency downward in the number of
new cases and deaths promises, a plea
will then be presented to the Commits
sioners for permission to resume serv-
ices next Sunday.
General Acceptance Of Order.
The general acceptance of the order
for the closing Of the churches had
demonstrated that the members Of the
various congregations and the clergy
have sought by their cooperation
with the authorities to do everything
possible to lessen the danger of dis

ton to lessen the effectiveness of the
order by diSputation.
Bishop Harding Of the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of Washington has
issued call to the members of that
denomination to follow the counsels
given by him a week ago as to pri-
vate devotions, family worship and
lntercessions for the sick, the af-
ficted, the nation, the President, our
allies, our soldiers and our sailors"
The bishop also suggests the prayer
full study of certain chapters of the
Scriptures, and recommends the use of
special prayer for health, victory
and peace" He advises the people
to avail themselves of the privileges
Of the open churches and to resort
to them for meditation and prayer,
although no services will be held in
them.
Catholic clergy have likewise urged
the members of their congregations
to observe home worship and to pray
for the restoration of the public
health and for the success of the ma
ton in its righteous undertaking of
war. The Catholic churches, which
are never closed, remain open for in
dividual prayer and meditation.

MCE tho days of the Indian
trader tn his canoe, transpor-
tation has been the backbone
~ of business development in the
United States
The railroads have been the afte-
ries of trade. Railroads have, In fact
through certain periods. used their
influence, during rate-cutting days OF
keen competition, to build up great
industrial centers that have caused
one of the biggest business problems
any people have ever been forced to
solve.
How the railroads of the United
States. probably under stricter regula-
ton, co-ordinated with water carriage
and the greatest merchant marine IN
history, can be prepared to bring TO
the world markets the greatest guam
tity of Americas raw materials. man
ufactures and produce at price that
will maintain the American standards
of living and meet competition from
other nations, friend or foe, Is now
being worked out under federal pa
tronage.
In adjusting the transportation sys-
tens to meet the war load and make
most expeditions delivery of these es-
sentials for the success of American
arms, the administrative officers have
constantly in mind the general plan
of preparation for world commerce.
Passes Through Crucial Stage.
Tho transportation system of the
United States passed through its most
crucial stage last year when an INDUS
trial debacle was imminent and avert
ed only by the most radical action.
Tho cumulative railroad mistakes OF
the past, followed by governmental
regulation which made it impossible
adequately to finance equipment, dou-
BILE trackage and terminals to take
caro- of the growing business OF the
country. has been recognized.
Cooperative efforts are now being
made to readjust transportation SO
that It will not only meet adequately
the present war needs, but will be
able to care for the period of recon-
struction when 100000 soldiers Will
be returned to peaceful pursuits and the
other millions in the munitions plants
will be returned to the task of feeding
and clothing the world and rebuilding
war-wrecked Europe.
Men who have made railroad history.
who recognize the achievements OF
the past and mistakes as we'll, are
cooperating with the government
officials WHO have wrestled with the
many-sided railroad problems during
the last few months to devise a far
seeing, far-reachinG policy that will
put the transportation of this country
on an economic basis for the fullest
advantage of the people during the
coming years when the United States
will be handling the bulk of the world
trade.
