Remarkable Railroad Propaganda

1t mas been many years since Wall
street has witnessed such remarkable
propaganda in the railroad stocks as
has been carried out since the grant
ing OF the rate increase by the Inter
state Commerce Commission.
Almost each succeeding day some new
dope is spread broadcast to keep in
terest on keen edge in the railroad
stocks. Each succeeding day, like
wise, some new combination or consol-
idation is hinted at, and il one fourth of
the stores come to pass the railroad map
OF the country will undergo a similar
transformation as that of Europe as
result of the world war. Curiously.
many of these creations have ring of
truth in them, when conditions sur
rounding the properties are taken into
consideration.
One of the latest comes from the New
York correspondent of Hecker & Co. 1t
says:
"We have frequently called your at =
tention to the reorganized rails as safe
speculative investments for profitable
results. OF these the Western Mary
land and Wheeling and Lake Erie seem
most favored at the moment, and with
good reason. There were some $16, =
000, 900 of new capital acquired by the
Wheeling and Lake Erie in the reor :
ganization and S12 100000 by the
Western Maryland. The Rockefeller

Steel Buyers Waiting

The reported new financing plan OF
the Bethlehem Steel Co.. providing for
an issue Of $20,000,000 fifteen, year
bonds bearing per cent and which,
IL was stated. was for the purpose OF
acquiring steamships to carry ore,
brought the steel industry to the fore

The new bond issue, 1t Is understood,
was underwritten by some of the biggest

According to the trade journals, de-

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

In the opinion Of the closer students
OF the economic situation. the action OF
the Central Leather Co. in passing the
dividend on the common stock will prob
ably forecast dividend reductions OF
other industrial companies.
Recognized market critics, however,
at the same time, point out that no
one must lose sight Of the fact that the
big decline in the price Of securities
has largely discounted action of this
kind. 1t is always we'll to bear in
mind, they state, that the stock market
discounts such radical changes In fun
damental conditions from three to six
months ahead Of the actual happen
ing.
In other words, the almost uninter-
rupted decline In market values which
took place from last November to the
first part Of August this year. is now
becoming understood in the radical re-
duction in automobile prices and the
recent heavy reduction in prices by the
American Woolen Co.. followed by the
~ ID per cent cut announced by the
New England cotton mills yesterday.
Not to speak of the downward adjust
ment in other commodity prices.
lt is generally felt, these radical eff
forts to restore ante -bellum prices will

fiation Of the over strained credit stu
alton. As a matter of fact 1t was
really the pressure applied to the de-
hation OF over extended bank credits
that brought the sweeping price reduc-
tions which seems to be spreading like
wildfire In all quarters Of the country

Good judgment and intelligent OBJ

necessary in the application Of feed

economical rations Is not merely q
matter of applied mathematics. The
local conditions as regards the feed

PLACE AN EMBARGO ON DISEASE

Our largest import from the Orient
10 death. The history of disease shows
that the most virulent and deadly dis
eases known to the western world have
had their origin somewhere east of
Suez."
1t is now matter Of common knOwl-
edge that the influenza made it's first
appearance in the mountains of Turk
estan. 1t carried off more than half a
million people In tho United States In
1918-1910, and returned this winter for
new victims.
Information collected by the Inter
church World Movement shows that in
fluenZa is not the first deadly disease
to come from the Orient. China is the
ancestral home of smallpox. The
Black Death, which swept Europe in
the fourteenth century and carried off
20O00OOO men, women and children,
came from the East with Chinese car
avan of silks and spices. The bubOniC
plague, which still shows Its head Oc-
casionally in New Orleans or Califor-
MIA, was an import from China.
Only the other day a case Of anthrax
was reported in New York City. and
nine cases out of ten, says the Inter
church, II the hair of the shaving
ing brush from which the infection was
received was traced to Its original
habitat, 1t would be on the back of u
Chinese animal. A few years ago q
number of persons died in Boston as a
result of anthrax infection imported
with Chinese hides.
The amount of sickness in the Far
East is almost beyond the cOmprehen'
sion Of the western mind. There are
villages In China where every inhab,
itant has some form Of tuberculosis
-Four hundred thousand lepers are wan
dering unhindered through India. The
Nsar-East is teeming with typhus.
The Interchurch World Movement ID
urging the enlistment OF iore medical
missionaries to help clean UP the
plague spots. In many parts of the
Orient, the medical missionary Is the
only evangel of health. To his efforts
can be traced directly many first stepa
toward sanitation and disease preven-
tlon.
Christian colleges In the Orient are
providing medical instruction for ma
tives and Christian hospitals are train
Ing native nurses.
At least 655 new medical mission
aries are being requested by the
churches participating In the Inter
church Movement for work during the
coming year. More than 1900 will be
needed In the next five years.

More than 100000 workers will be

ica's Protestant churches affiliated
with the Interchureh World Move
ment. More than 1900 new mission
aries are to be recruited for the for

other workers, lay and clerical, are
to be secured for churches In the az
4liated organisations of this country.
Who're are they all to come froml
1t used to be the notion that the
only essential equipment needed by a
person who proposed to devote his
life to the church was "oall." On
the other hand, the modern mission
worker knows that, while devotion to
duty is an absolutely Indispensable
requisite, it must be supplemented by
highly specialized training. AS much
executive equipment is required, it is
commented, to direct congregation
as to direct business, for the sue
cessful clergyman must know modern
life in all its many sided phases quite
as well as Biblical history. The mis-
sionary nowadays must often teach
agriculture, carpentry, hygiene or
sanitation to pave the way to the sos-
pei 3-1.
Most Of the church workers of to-
day are trained in church schools and
colleges, the Interchurch survey
shows. A preliminary survey of edu-
cation in the United States made by
the Interchurch has brought out the
fact that 80 per cent Of the ministers
and missionaries in service have re-
ceived their education In institutions
under the control of the church. To
these institutions the church must
look, it is believed, for most of its
future workers.
Part of the fNnd that is to be col
lected by the Interchurch World Move
ment will be appOrtioned among the
UNCONVENTIONAL schools and colleges
supported by the churches which are
taking part in the campaign.
