Golden Sorrow
By DR.. BERTHOLD A. 3AER.

"Sorrow and Silence are strong says Longfellow,
and ,Wear golden Sorrow" sings Shakespeare
Your psychology is all right" said mourner who
had come to arrange for funeral, to Mr. Frank E.
Campbell; "the moment you enter The Funeral
Church, and notice its beauty and the wonderful OBJ
Jects of art, you begin TO forget your grief. You
realize that only Life Of Usefulness is Eternity that
Sorrow lives in golden Clouds that to honor the Dead
is to live right
If The Funeral Church do this, then its per-
manency is assured answered Mr.. Campbell with a
smile of satisfaction.
You do not realize the soothing influence of the
beauty which greets you everywhere in The Funeral
Church, Broadway at seth Street, until you have
visited the place
You will find "Silence" and you may see Golden
Sorrow; but you nothing that is remindfu of
Death for The Funeral Church is built for the Living
to Honor their beloved departed. orn

Interstate Board
Considers Plans to-
Handle Rail Z und
Railroads Want Separate
Corporations to Spend
$500, 900, ,OOOEquipmena
Money; Colston Opposed

WASHINGTON. May 9.-Proposals of
the railroads for apportionment of the
300,000000 fund provided by the trans
portation act for loans to enable the
carriers to meet transportation needs
were taken up to-day by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
T. Dewitt Cuyler, chairman of the
Association Of Railway Executives,
presented the program filed early in
the month, giving in detail the re-
qu1rements of the carriers. Formation
of national equipment corporation
backed by a loan of $125, 100000 from
the revolving fund and by advances
by the carriers was opposed by Mr.
Cuyler. He recommended creation Of
separate corporations to finance the
purchase of needed rolling stock for
each of the lines.
W. A. Colston, director of finance Of
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
urged that the revolving fund be ad-
mlnlstered as an entity and not piece
meal. Amount of traffic carried and
amount of revenue received by car
riers should have no bearing on the
granting of loans, he declared, because
the weaker the road the greater it's
need would be for financial assistance.
Mr.. Colston disapprovcd the forma-
ton of q Federal equipment corpora
ton, suggesting instead the organiza-
tlon Of d private corporation with an
advance of $125, 100000 by the govern
ment and certain amount by the rail
roads, the stock in the corporation to
he held as security for loans to the
carriers.
Appointment Of a special committee
representing the railroads of the coun-
try with authority similar to that Of
the Railroad War Board of 1917, to
cooperate with the Interstate Com
merce Commission in untangling the
freight jam and to expedite trans
portation, was announced to-day by
Mr.. Cuyler.
Meeting link between the commission
expected to enable the commission to
carry out with the greatest efficiency
It's orders relative to freight CON
gestion.
The members of the committee arc
Daniel Willard, pres dcnt Of the Balti-
more & Ohio; A. II. Smith, president
of tho New York Central Lines; c. H.
Markham, president Of the Illinois
Central; Hale Holden, president Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad;

peka & Santa FG Railroad; B. f.

EDITORS PAY VISIT
TO MARION STAR AND
FIND A REAL PAPER

eff President Harding Is as big a
success as Editor Harding he will go
down in history In the Hall Of Fame"
writes j. Gabbert Of Riverside, CAL,
In an article just published on his re-
turn from Marion, where he visited
Hardlng's paper.
"We found just the sort Of paper
q future President might be expected
to edit" says Mr.. Gabbert, 'and the
visit, to us came nearer to being an
editorial conference than a political
crusade.
"We found men working for Editor
Harding who had been with him for
periods varying from 20 to 38 years.
We found that Editor Harding follows
closely every detail incident to the
publication. of his paper. He knows
what pay the helpers on the floor get,
just as he knows the amount he pays
his manager. He can handle type like
the rest Of US, and 1t would keep my
foreman busy to beat him on setting
up a stick Of 8-point type. He knows
how to make up paper like veteran
and he is just as much at home In the
business Office looking over the adver-
Using accounts"
