Let's Schedule Ahead!

This is a good time for clear
thinking and courageous acting
as fundamentally in the way O
business, there isn't very mucf
wrong with US. We have the
intelligence, capacity and high
purpose to conserve and develop
the great heritage that is ours; We
are strong in number and in faith
and if to our faith we add the de.
termination to profit by our ex.
periences, by correcting sins OF
commission and commission and
bring every factor to bear tia
will improve our fixed formulas,
reward will follow waen this TEN.
porary process of world contract.
ing is adjusted. We are all feel.
ing the discomforts of the proce IS
and the uncertainty of when il
it will end, is what makes business
difficult today.
There is no sound reason why
cotton should not go to at least 90
cents within a few months, pro.
vided the planter uses judgment
in h,s planting for another season,
and does not Immediately force
this years crop on the market.
The depressed feeling that some
farmers have should be brushed
aside and the future should be
viewed with a spirit of optimism
The world needs cotton and must
come to the south for its wants.
The ancient law of supply and de-
mand will bring the price to a
level which will be profitable to
the farmer as we'll as advantageous
to the consumer. Senator Lew
is in a recent interview in a Chica-
60 paper makes the following
statement: THE torn lands Of
Europe have no goods. They must
be supplied. The United States
must be their supply house for
years to come. AS soon as the
policy of the new administration
is known hesitrnt business will
begin working boldly. Factories
will resume operation, unemploy-
ment will cease and people will
again buy goods. Let US all stop
lighting about politics or other
factional causes. Let US all stand
behind all OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Il, state and city, and help them

With confidence restored. there
should be brisk activity and pros.
perity for oil. The dollars pur-
power is rapidly growing |
greater. Greater purchasing pow
r naturally also will mean great

We have passed through an
,rgy Of spending . period where
be whole world, recovering from
he shell shock of the world war,
urned aside for q while from the
afe and sound paths of economi-
al mode OF living. The awaken

been the go-between between Raman-

keeper of Hartford, Conn. According
TO this story Salzberg got three bar

Panarelli for which he paid $4,000

New 1ork romeo Arrest SIX Men Tor
Conspiracy 10 Flood New England
and 0rther States with Poisonous
Liquor. Death Toll Increases.
New York Dec. 29-With six men in
custody, alleged ring leaders in CON
spiraey TO flood New York, New Jer-
sey and New England with poisonous
substitutions for whiskey, federal,
state and city authorities were united
tonight in a vigorous pursuit of the
purveyors of the poisonous beverages
which have caused scores of deaths
and hundreds of cases of blindness and
illness. The arrest of the six men in
New York last night and today is only
the first step in widespread cam
paign which is expected to result in
the capture of at least score or more
of the poison dispensers, according to
federal officials.
In the meantime the toll of death
and serious illness caused through
drinking wood alcohol and other illicit
connections continued TO mount in New
York and adjacent cities. During the
day four more deaths were recorded,
one each from Newark, Elizabeth,
Passaic, n. j., and one from New
York. In addition two men and
woman were picked up unconscious
on New York streets and two men in
Passaic in a similar condition, all four
being critically i'll tonight from alco-
holic poisoning
Thoroughly aroused by the ever
growing list of fatalities the authori-
ties held several conferences during
the day at which cooperation was
planned between the different federal
and municipal departments. Colonel
Daniel L. Porter, supervising revenue
agent for New York, who is at the
head Of the campaign for the federal
declared tonight that
New York City is the headquarters for
the country in the Illicit liquor indus
try and that it is impossible as yet
tell how far the qualifications of tn,
trade extend.
The two most important arrests
made so far, according to the federal
agents are those of John Roman
a Brooklyn undertaken, and Samuel
Saleeby a Brooklyn druggist, who are
accused of being the principals in the
distribution of the poison throughout
New England. The two men were re
leased tonight on $4,000 bail pending
further examination and in the mean

Sir William Osler was one of the
great men who sprang from Canadian
soil. He was born in the province of
Ontario and grew TO be the most dis
tinguished Of four sons of famous
mother, the hundredth anniversary Of
whose birth was celebrated on Decem-
Der IA, 1906.
His first preceptor was the parish
priest, to whom he acknowledged his
moral and mental adeptness and to
whom he ascribed one of his works,
"The Practice Of Medicine"
Obtaining his medical degree from
McGill University in the year 1882,
DR.. osler placed the imprint of his
ability on medical learning to such a
marked degree that within few years
he became an authority on medical
science.
In 1905 at the commemoration day
exercises of Johns Hopkins University
of Baltimore, in which he served as
professor of medicine, DR.. Osler de-
livered the address in which he spoke
of ''the comparative uselessness Of
men above 40 years of age" His
words, then spoken without thought of
how far reaching they would be
passed around the world in garbled
form Of every variety. He was quoted
as having said in effect that men past
that age were Of no value in 4
progress Of humanity and that men
who had reached the age of 60 should
be chloroformed.
DIR. Osler remained silent on the
subject for considerable period and
then issued statement, in which h
declared:
81 did not say men at the age Of
60 should be chloroformed. That was
the point in the novel TO which | re

HINES FOR FAIR
RETURN TO ROADS
would Divide Excess Profits to Pro-

Would Divide Excess Profits to Pro.
teet Public. Director General Gives
Views OH Necessary Future Policy.
Louisville, Ky, Jan. 20.-Walker d.
Hines, director general of railroads,
III an address before the Transporta-
ton Club here tonight, urged the
necessity Of a division of excess earn
inss of railroad corporations above a
reasonable return in order to protect
the public against excess earnings Of
very prosperous railroads and in or
der to insure q fair return to all rail
roads.
Mr.. Hines declared his belief that
unless the railroad problem at the
present time is dealt with "in bold
ana effective way" the return to pri-
vate management after federal con-
troll will be wholly disappointing"
The director general also urged the
compulsory consolidation of the rail
road system Of the country into few
large systems and suggested the par
ticipation of the public and labor in
the management of the roads.
Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood who is
visiting Louisville on an inspection
trip. was another speaker at the ban
quet. In his discussion of the rail
road rate question and the reorganiza-
ton Of the railroads which he believes
necessary after government control
Mr.. Hines said.
II believe that no prompt. conf
dent and liberal regulation of the
railroads will be practicable unless
provision is made for. the appropri-
ating for any benefit of the public in
tercst an important part OF the ex-
cess which any railroad company may
earn over a clearly reasonable return.
The excess earnings thus appro-
priated for the public benefit ought
to be used largely for the creation of
reserves to protect the railroad situa-
ton in unfavorablc years and thus an
additional element of stability will be
given to the situation.
