COMMISSION HAS
 ANSWERED HARDING
I. c. c. Says Order for Car Assignment Was Based on
 Interstate Commerce Act
By Associated Press

Washington, June 1S.-The interstate commerce commission. replying today to a resolution introduced in the Senate by Senator Harding of Ohio now the re- publican presidential nominee. asking by what authority it issued its car as signment order of last April t, said the order was based on the interstate com merce act. It added that it's authority to take such action had been upheld by the supreme court in numerous de- cisions.
 Under the order cars supplied to coal mines for the transportation of fuel for the railroads could not be charged against the distributive shares of cars to those mines. Senator Harding ob- jected to the order on the ground that 1t was preferential to the railroads as against some of the mines and the public.
 The commission said that the passing of the roads from federal control and the suspension of the fuel adminstra- tion's rules, together with the transpor- tation conditions and shortage of fuel on hand at the time secured an emer- gency in it which 1t acted with it's best Judgment" it added that mo other def mite rule or practical plan has been suggested by the interested parties in the many conferences that have been held on the subject

SOUTHERN PUTS ON
 LIVE STOCK TRAINS

Atlanta, Ga, June 3.-(Special) )-The fast special live stock trains to run every day in the year from Atlanta and Chat tanooga to Potomac Yards, Va. with con- meeting service from Danville to Rich mond. have just been established by the Southern railway system to provide for the constantly increasing traffic in live stock and other perishables moving from the south to eastern markets and Vir- ginia feeding grounds
 How this traffic has grown is Indicated by the fact that this service was first established in 1912 to run once a week to serve a limited territory in East Tennes- see and western North Carolina during the fall months. The territory was grad ually wdened and in 1916 the service was made daily during the fall months Now the entire south is to be served through the trains starting from Atlanta and Chattanooga and the trains are to run throughout the year. They will handle only live stock and box cars containing hiGh-class through freight and will be moved through intermediate terminals without being broken up
 Including the time for fedeing and rest ing at Spencer these trains provide a schedule of 52 hours from Atlanta to Potomac Yards and 61 hours from Chat tanooga to Potomac Yards, as follows:
 Leave Chattanooga 8 a. m. (eentral time), Knoxville D. nn., Ashevlle 4:3O a. m, arrive Spencer 1:30 D. m.

OF FEDERAL
 RESERVE IS VITAL
By Associated Press

New York June 13.-The support Of the federal reserve board is vital to the development of bankers accept ances and without it the system would be imperiled, according to statement issued today by the American accept ance council. This conclusion was reached by the executive committee, of which Paul M. Warburg is chair man, in answer to questionnaire sent out by the board seeking informa- tion on all phases of the use aad op- eratibn of acceptances, including rates, market conditions and methods of handling.
 Unless the federal reserve board,'' the statement said puts itself heart and soul behind the untrammeled de- velopment of acceptances as a prime investment of banks and federal re- serve banks, the future safe and sound development of the system will be jeopardized."
 The questionnaire was the outgrowth of an important conference which members of the board held with bank CTS and dealers. in acceptances last April.

BIBLE THEORIES"
 BY REV. J. T. WARE

Bible theories were the basis of sermon of more than psual interest preached by the Rev. J. T. Ware, rec tor of St. Andrews Episcopal Church. al the morning service yesterday. MT. Ware said in part:
 What kind of a God can there be that there is in his world such a book as the Bible?
 The old theory about the Bible was that it was a unique and authorize tive word or message from God by which he revealed, once and for all, what of God and duty man might know.
 The new theory is that the Bible is a purely human, very fallible mass of ancient literature of about the same value as Plutarch's Lives
 "On the old theory, the Bible is evil dence that God during the course of certain centuries sent a comprehensive message to man and then ceased writ ing: on the new, the Bible makes against rather than for the possibility of any real knowledge of God and duty. The old theory is based on the 'power;' the new on the falltbility' of the Bible. The impartial student must consider both.
 The Bible is divine library con- taining a record of the spiritual achievements of the great prophets and apostles. These achievements challenge our admiration, our imita- ticn, and even an ambition to surpass them. The religious man who does rot study the Bible masterpieces Is as great fool as the artist who neg leets an opportunity to study the old masters"
 But the Bible is not final. Its science and sometimes it's history are inaccurate. It is not self-conststent Catholicism and a hundred Protestant sects can each prove its truth by the Bible. In the Bible itself there is re- ligious progress: the law gives way to the gospel. St. Johns interpretation of the Christ is superior to St. Mat thew's, and neither quite puts into words what He means to the twen- tieth century Nowhere is the Bible conscious of, far less provides solu- ton for, the religious problems born of modern social and economic condi- tions. The religious man will study the old pictures, but he must paint his own.
 The Bible is a record of growing spiritual achievement, of a progress which did not cease when the last Bible book was written, of a progress which has not ceased today. What does such a books existence tell us of God? Nothing less than that he God the Holy Ghost; not God whom we cannot know; not God who used to speak, but a God who has given man faculties of mind and heart by which he may know truth and duty.
 This is merely an hypothesis. But if is an hypothesis--or a faith-by which we live If mind and heart de- ceive us, why even do good rather than evil? If the Bible is final and authoritative, ho>wdare heart and mind retel against a single Scriptural text? But in the faith that heart and mind are God given faculties, oh, the glory o' living as we go on from truth to trut hand from light to light"

Deny That England
 Controls Oil of Europe
By Associated Press


 New York, June 13.-Claims of Lon den financiers that British interests control 99 per cent of the worlds po- tcntial oil territory outside the United States were denied in statement is- sued here today by Thomas A. O'Don- rell. president of the American Pe- trcleum Institute who has just sailed for Europe to attend the international trade conference.
 "The American oil industry" he said. has obtained many important he cldings and concessions in Mexico, in South America. and In Rumania, upon the future of which large investments of American capital are staked."
 While admitting that Great Britain had been alert to assure the security of her future petroleum supply, MT ODonnell said: Ut would be a grave misapprehension to assert that the oil industry of the United States has meanwhile been wanting in either vision or action"
