Bishop Bury Asks Stronger
Religious Bonds for Two Of
Greatest Nations.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 21.--Bishop Her
bert Bury of England. Episcopal head Of
the Anglican Churches in north and
Central Europe, in an address to-day at
the final service Of the 225th snniver-
sary Of Old Christ Church. urged the
people OF the United States to unite In
a strong bond Of friendship with Eng
land for the purpose of Christian zing
and civilizing the world" The Bishop
spoke Of the great men, notably George

historic edfce. and referred 70 the an
Client church which brought the faith
from Ensl4.4C.
There shou'd be n close bond between
the great nations" he said, mot for self
protection, but for civilization, humanity
and for good generally. To further our
union, let us deepen our religious and
church life. This would be q wonderful
tie. With two great nations coming into
close touch We may bring about an un-

Speaking of the League OF Nations.
Bishop Bury said II was inconceivablc
70 him that tho United States would

Forty nations have gotten together for

PANAMA CANAL HAS
BEST REVENUE YEAR
Brig. Gen. Harding Reports
Excess of S2,387,599 Over
Expenses.
BRIGHT FUTURE PICTURED
Governor Believes Waterway
Will Earn Actual Profit
on It's Cost.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.--The Panama
Canal has closed the best year finan-
clally in its six years OF operation with
en- excess of s2,3s7.599 in revenue over
the expense OF operation and mainten-
ance
Brig. Gen. Chester Harding, Governor
or the Panama Canal, predicted in his
annual report 10 the Secretary Of War
made public to-day, that within a rea-
sonable. period Of normal world condi-
lions, the canal will earn an actual profit
on its cost which has been 1886, $4,000
exclusive of expenditures for its military
the General added, the canal is perform
ing an important commercial service by
stimulating American trade with the
west coast Of South America and the
Orient. More than 25 per cent. Of the
cargoes handled through the canal since
its opening was in transit between the
United States and South America, and
14M per cent. was between the Atlantic
coast of the United States and the
Orient
Within the six years of operation,
Gen. Harding's report said, there has
been a marked increase 10 traffic
through the Canal, Notwithstanding the
fact that the world war interfered with
the normal development of ocean going
commerce. After the entry OF the United
states into the war there was a de-
crease in commercial traffic, due to the
diversion of certain lines of ships to
transatlantic service, but this was more
than offset by the increase in traffic
growing out Of the war. chiefly on ac-
count of the development of the nitrate
trade with the Pacific coast of South
America.
In the year 2,745 vessels passed
through the Canal, OF which 2,47S We're
commercial transits. Tolls and other
revenues amounted to $s.985S71, while
current expenses of operation and main
tenance totalled to $6,54S.272. The ex-
cess Of revenue this year reduced to
s2,2310e1 the excess of expense and
maintenance over revenues for the six
years the Canal has been in operation
AT the rate of revenues this year it is
expected that by June so, 1921, the col
lections for tolls and other canal reve-
nues will exceed by S1,000,000 or more
the total current expenses of operation
and maintenance from the opening to
that date, after which. the canal au-
thorites argue, there should be an ex-
cess of S5,000,000 or more each year.
The. auxiliary services of the canal
have been largely utilized and are OF
great value in carrying out the policy
OF making il attractive in all of the
incidental services that are considered
by shipping interests in routing their
vessels. Gen. Harding said. adding that
It has not been the purpose to make large
profits on these activities, but rather to
regulate the charges so as safely to
cover the cost. From these miscel-
!aneous services the receipts for the year
were: Coal S6,032, 57S: water. S55.412 /;
oil, groceries and miscellaneous supplies.
sf,274,556, and mechanical repairs TO
ships, s3,S63,933.

from the Far East. South America
counted next. Russia had n quota.

the record of the last year could be
equalled. The Rev. John Kelman said
that twenty-one nationalities were rep

at the church. A student from Ceylon
and one from Siam answered the roll
then.
Five other Presbyterian churches par

graduates to align themselves more
closely With the New York churches.
