RUMANIAN TRAINS
CROWDED; PASSENGERS
RIDE ON CAR ROOF
(By Associated Press.)

(By Associated Press.)
BUCHAREST, Rumania, Oct. est
Americans feel that their subways.
railroads and trolley cars are crowded,
conditions in Rumania and other parts
of the Balkans are worse. Railroad
traffic today in Rumania is so great
that passengers ride on the roof OF
every train by the hundreds. When
the tops of the trains are so crowded
that they can hold no more, the pas
sengers cling to the running boards,
ride on the bumpers and even on the
under framework OF the car.
The fare is the same whether the
passenger rides in a compartment or
on the roof of the car. Accidents are
frequent Often when a train has
entered a tunnel a number of passen
gers have been swept off the roof to
their death.
The congested traffic is due to the
small number of locomotives and
coaches available and to insufficient
trackage. Most of the country's roll
ing stock was carried off by the Ger
mans or destroyed. Some of the To-
comotives and cars have been replac-
ed, but the number is far from ade'
quate. A large American locomotive
concern has. contracted to send a
number of engines here, taking in
payment, quantity Of oil.
Box Cars for Public.
There are at present less than 5000
locomotives In Rumania, including the
newly acquired provinces of tran
sylvania and Bessarabia. About halt
this number are in order. Most OF
them are of German or Hungarian
construction. There is such shortage
of passenger coaches that box cars are
often used for the conveyance Of the
public. d.. ..
The total trackage in Greater Ku
mania is about 10000 miles. This has
to serve an area of nearly 100000
square miles and population Of ~,
100000. Many of the steel rails arc
almost worn out and the road beds
are in need of major repairs. Ru
manian railway officials say that Am
erican railroad men and engineers

prospects in Rumania. Railroads mus

There can be little doubt that the re-

sense. The report stated that ct does
not appear from the experience of the

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

The General Conference of the Methodist
Church conyenes this May at Des MONIES.
There the question will again come up:
Shall the Church continue its condemna-
ton of certain amusements, providing Tor
the expulsion Of those members who indulge
in them?
Under the wise direction Of Mr.. Wesley,
the founder of the denomination the posi-
ton Of the Church was stated as being
against taking such diversions as cannot
be used in the name of the Lord Jesus"
This rule was reasonable and adapted TO
an organization which claimed "the world
as its parish" and was not designed to
be a mere disciplinary order.
Anxious to protest emphatically against
"worldliness," however, certain element
in the Church succeeded in changing this
same principle of Mr.. Wesley into a hard
and narrow rule, which has made for
fanaticism and worked incalculable injury.
For the principle" they substituted
rule, specifying certain amusements, name
ly. attending theatres, horse-races. cir
cuses, dancing parties, or patronizing dan
cling Schools" etc, as being crimes against
the Church. punishable by expulsion.
Altho this drastic regulation is out Of
harmony with the spirit of both Jesus and
Wesley, the advocates of it at once assumed
the virtue of loyalty 10 the faith and ac-
cused their opponents of lowering the
standards" The "militarists" always have
the advantage in a church council.
II is high time, however. that those re-
ligious Junkers were deposed
The Board of Bishops have repeatedly
advised the abolition of the absurd rule.
In 1916 they pointed out that the list, even
If good, was incomplete and that to num-
Der all the questionable amusements would
be impossible.
In 1908 the Bishops expressed their
