To Hold Hearings This Summer

The commission has not yet adopted
a plan of procedure. but it is expected
to hold hearings this summer in an
effort to fix the reason for the present
financial difficulties Of electric roads,
The commission was appointed by the
President In answer to a suggestion
by the Secretaries Of Commerce and

that fifty large electric lines are now
in the hands of receivers, and the en-
tire business in this country is "vir-

Few Observe Great Shock.

'"The great shock has been observed
by few and analysed by still fewer.
It is the shock which has disorganfzed
industry. Europe. which had 176. 900,
900 persons to provide for at the close
Of the Napoleonic wars, had nearly
four hundred millions at the begin
ming Of the great world war. The con-
tinent can only support its population
through industry. There is no other
way.
"A thoughtful Eng1ishman told me
that the plants Of the country must
resume operation in a short time or
it would BIS necessary to transport
8, 900, 900 Englishmen to some place
nearer the source Of food supply. In
England a million persons are receiv-
ing a weekly unemployment dole; in
Belgium 100000 persons depend for
their bread on this form of charity.
But for reconstruction, for restora-
ton Of industry, where are the ma
tons Of Europe to look II not to
America, the worlds creditor?
II don't moan that We shall help BY
loans to their governmental. Govern
mont loans to governments arc al
ways regarded In q different light
from other obligations. In this We
have gone far enough. But we oar
help them with machinery, with rail-
way equipment and with food"

The superficial traveller who goes
to Europe at the present time would
not be impressed with the idea that
the shock Of war had brought about

He would find great London living in
luxury; he would find Paris gay ones
more and he would say that after all
the war has done no real harm. But
