Gross revenues for the month were
estimated at close to $436, 600, 900. This
figure IS only slightly below the high
mark OF a year ago, but the heavy ex-
penses, due in part to tho coal strike,
which also reduced h revenues, left
as net little of the operating revenues.
The governments net loss, the bu-
reau estimated, on the basis OF Inter
state Commerce commission figures, has
reached $54s, 900, 900 in the :23 months
of railroad operation. The bureau

British Scientist Firm
In Spir1tuaHst Belief

London, Jan. 5.-The church should
'cast off its hard shell of doctrine" and
investigate, or at least keep an open
mind toward discoveries of spiritualistic
phenomena" Sir oliver Lodge. famous
British scientist, asserts in an article
to be published in the next issue of the
HILBERT Journal, leading British philo-
sophical quarterly.
Lodge criticizes vigorously the attack
on sp~iritualism that featured the Lei
'..cester church congress. The church, he
says already has discarded it's old be-
liefs in the "fixidity of eternal fate at
death or in two extreme regions in the
hereafter" but has not yet constituted
for itself a new creed of equal strength.
The scientist recommends that the
church investigate claims Of communi-
cation with spirits. adding that if
ministers really open their minds to
the evidence, if they examine the proofs
carefully and without prejudice. they
surely will be guided in the direction of
truth"
ut will be the miracle Of this gener-
ation,'' he asserts, ito find that by the
kindly help of living persons who pos
eess certain facnlties.' we NAV COM
municate with the dead.
"Our friends on the other side are not
so far away from u.s." Sir Oliver con
tinues. "They are removed from range
of our animal sense organs, that is all.
If the truth be-as it certainly is-that
death makes no sudden change in per-
sonality or character, if existence is
continuous and only surrounding con
ditions change, even that change being
not nearly so great as had been antici-
pated, hen there is nothing especially
