NEED FOR RAIL
CHANGES seen
Holland Presents Views of
Experienced and Sue
cessful Fnancier.

One of the ablest Of the men OF
finance. who also was in the past
prominently associated with rail-
road construction. promotion and
development, always with success,
spoke a few weeks ago of the labor
difficulties, and OF the embarrass-
ment which is represented by the
railroad situation and also Of the
mobilization Of American resources
to the end that Europe can be sue
cessfully financed and our own
prosperity maintained and increased.
In this manner he spoke a few
weeks ago. desiring 20 express no
more than his own views OF the best
method Of restoring normal condi-
tions, and especially OF establishing
new and highly satisfactory rcla-
tion between the men who work for
wages and the men who pay the
wages.
Today what h, then said seems TO
have been prophetic. For the So
called Cummins railroad bill. which
has already received considerable
approval. and tho conference in Oc-
tOber between the representatives, OF
American Industries and railroads
with those who are the leaders in
the labor organization. reflect the
thought which this able man eX-
pressed.
Briefly stated. he said that Il
seemed to him that FIRST Of all Con-
Eress should consider tie important
questions now pressing for answer
from the economic and not the pO-
litical or partisan point Of view.
Advocates Profit sharing.
Second. he believed that IL II could
be arranged either by agreement OF
legislation to have the labor that
is employed by the railroads SlaTe
in all profits in excess OF per cent
which is n reasonable sum TO pay
in the form Of dividends and fur
thermore. If labor is permitted rep
rcsentation upon the board or upon
an appropriate committee named b.
the board, then speedily the differ
ences whic'l have characterized the
relation CT labor to capital in the
world OF railroad affairs will dis
appear
Then again, Il seemed to him that
the great Industrial corpora tions
might establish cordial relations with
their employees IL the employees were
permitted 10 take some part in the
/ direction OF the affairs of the cor
poration: or. in other words. were

New Outline Map
OfCOuntry Made

WashinSton. The United States
coast and geodetic survey recently an
nounced the completion Of new out
Lambert conformal comic projection,
scale 1-5.OOO,OOO.
This map is intended merely as
base to which may be added any kind
Of special information desired. The
shore line Is compiled from the most
recent coast and geodetic survey
charts. State names and boundaries,
principal rivers, capitals. and the
larger cities in the differnt states are
also embodied.
The map is OF special interest from
the fact that 1t is based on the same
system of projection as that employed
by the armies Of the allied forces in
the military operations in France. To
meet those requirements and at the
request of the army, special publica-
tions were prepared by the coast geo.
detic survey
Many methods of projection have
been designed to solve the difficult
problem of representing n spherical
surface on plane. AS different pro-
JectiOns have unQuestionable merit as
| well as equally serious defects, the
announcement states, any region to be
mapped should be made the subject of

Value Of New Map.
The Mercator projection. almost uni
versally used for nautical charts, is re-
sponsible for many false Impressions
of the relative size of the countries DIFF
fering in latitude. according to the sur
vey statement. The polyconic pro-
lection, widely used and well adapt
ed for both Topographic and hydro
graphic surveys, when used for the
whole of the United States in one map
has the serious defect of unduly exag-
gerating the areas on its eastern and
western limits. Along the Pacific
coast and in Maine the error in scale
Is as much as 6h per cent. while at
New York it reaches Az per cent.
The value of the new outline map
on the Lambert projection can best be
realized when 1t is stated that it shows
that throughout the largest and most
important part Of the United States,
that is, between latitudes 30h degrees
and 40 degrees, the maximum scale
error is only One-half of l per cent.

"With the entrance of the Italians

which New York's Liberty bell was

the time it arrived in New York city

from colonial records and the history
of New York and is authentic in every
particular:
735-Announcing the liberty Of the
press.
1741-Warning the citizens to pro-
tect themselves against the negroes,
who threatened to rise and murder
the whites. They burned Governor
Clarke's residence within the fort and
the homes of Admiral Sir Peter War

Phillipse and others.
1755-Announced the defeat Of Gen.
eral Braddock.
175S-Announced the burning OF
Fort william Henry and the disaster
at TiconderOga.
1759-Rang for the capture of Que

II and later for the accession of
George III.
