RAILROAD PROBLEM
 IS NEAR SOLUTION
Secretary Davis Convinced Decentral- iZatiOn Is Needed to Restore
 Industrial Peace.

Seattle, Oct. 30.-Hope of an early solution of the problem of railroad conditions was expressed by James J Davis, secretary of labor in a state ment made public here last night
 In the past three weeks l have travelled more than 5000 miles on six of our great railway systems,' MT. Davis said
 "On this trip I have been able to get in touch with the human factor in transportation problems. having talked with the men who do the work on these roads.
 T have been impressed with the strong sense of responsibility of the railroad workers and with their rec- ognitior of the duty that they and their employers owe the whole peo- pie. To my mind we are getting close to solution of the problem of in- suring industrial peace on our rail- roads. The men who do the work are almost universally convinced that means can be found to adjust the re- lations of the railroads and their em- ployes in such a way as to eliminate all possibility of great railroad strikes.
 There seems to be a feeling among the workers that government med ding without real power behind it tends to stir up dissatisfaction and and that decentralization of the treatment of railroad labor con- troversieS is vitally needed

SOMERVILLE HAS
 DAY OF TRAGEDY
Three Boys Die in Gasoline Explosion Another Suffocated By Fumes
 

Somerville, Mass, Oct. 30.---Three boys were killed and one was fatally injured by the explosion of a gaso- line tank i'll the rear of Union Square late yesterday. The fourth boy died early last night. The police expressed the opinion that the boys had been playing with matches near the tank.
 The victims were James Dwyer, El- mer Leard and Edward Fitzgerald, all of Somerville, and Lawrence Allen of Charlestown. They were about IA years of age. John Brady of Somer- vile, fifth boy in the crowd, was slightly injured and was taken to a hospital after he had run to a fire de- partment station nearby and notified firemen of the deaths of the boys who were killed outright. The Allen boy who was found barely alive by the Itremen, was pronounced dead on ar rival at the hospital.
 The 500 gallon tank had recently been eXcayated from the ground and was lying between two buildings in the rear of Union Square. The boys had been rummaging around and, it is believed, lighted matches. Fumes escaping from the tank are thought to have been ignited and the explo- sion followed, blowing the bodies of the boys a dozen feet and breaking windows in houses 50 feet away.
 The other tragedy was learned when three school children learning that Adam Guggino, an Il year old play mate, was missing, went to an empty gasoline tank car standing on the Boston X Maine tracks on a siding here and found the child's lifeless body They remembered that on Sat urday they had seen Guggino playing on the top of the car and, as they walked away, heard him cry for help, but thought he was joking.
 The child had entered the tank by s ladder and had been overcome by the fumes from a small quantity of gasoline at the bottom.

DISCUSSES THEOLOGY.
Pastor Taylor Delivers First Sermon
 of Series.

Rev. A. B. Taylor yesterday preached the first of his series of five sermons on the question of Modern Theology versus the Bible" The ser mons have grown out of recent controversy regarding the literal in- depreciation of the Bible as compared to the understanding of the present time. Biblical quotations were used to prove that those who wrote Scrip tural passages years ago were ''in- spired" or wiser than educational con- ditions made possible at that time.
 The church was well filled, many people evincing a keen interest in the controversy.

FIRST ANNIVERSARY
 0F BIG BIBLE CLASS
Birthday to Be Observed Next
 Sunday at M. E. Church

Adjust yourself to the ways of the world and don't think that the world is going to adjust itself to you., was the keynote of the sermon delivered by Rev. John L. Davis at the gath ering of the Everyman's Bible class at the Methodist church yesterday morning.
 There were TIA men in attendance at the session of the class with the Red army reporting SIS; the Blue 336; the White, 125. This is the record in attendance for single ses- sion this fall Visitors were present from Middetown Hartford and Rock vile as well as from cities in Massa- chusetts and New Jersey.
 First Anniversary.
 The first anniversary of the found- ing of the class will be observed next Sunday with the members of Aziz Grotto as the guests of the class. The members of the Masonic organization will meet at the Grotto hall on West Main street at o'clock and walk in a body to the church.
 Rev John l.. Davis was applauded several times during the course of his sermon in which he stated that the only way a person can succeed in the world is by adjusting himself to what is going on and changing with the times. There are many people who do not advance and get ahead in the world, merely because they will not change their viewpoints and ideas which are perhaps generations old and not progressive" he said.
 "Power to Ourselves"
 In continuing the pastor stated What we want is power to ourselves. We all know that our mind controls the body, If we think we are sick then of course we are going to be schsand many of the illnesses on this earth today are mental illnesses and can be cured by a change of thought
 Rev. MT. Davis also asserted that many people are driving themselves nto an early grave because of the condition of their minds. He said hat many are ruled by emotion and not by reason and as a result there $ great deal Of hate in the world. 1
 Much interest is being shown in the to be given by the Rhondda Welsh singers, under the auspices of he Bible class at the Methodist ,hurch this evening. The program opens at 8:15 o'clock and includes Welsh folksongs, duets, trios quartets, 2horuses, etc.
