OF all the thousands OF hooks writ
ten on Bible subjects. here is one that
is in a field by itself. The archives
of the world have been secured for
evidence.
Mr.. Courscy shows that John and
Jesus were blood relatives. and that
all three OF them went to martyrs
deaths for an eXemplification OF the
faith which Jesus came to earth to
establish.
The author has emphasized Paul's
litigation matters, rather than his
teachings. He has outlined Paul's
three trials at Cacsarca, giving in
each case the name OF tho trial Judge:
MS accuser; Paul's defense of him
self. and the verdict of the court.

serted that it is her favorite opera.
The opera was first produced here
eleven years ago, but after three per-
formances the protests became so vo-
luminous that it was abandoned. This
year Miss Garden revived 1t, saying
that times had changed and that the
more liberal spirit of today would
Justify the performance"
Two performances of it have been
given and at each Of those the gal

The critics termed the opera "un-

CALLS FOR ACTION
RAILWAYS
Charles NJ. Schwab Appeals
& to Public to End Repres-
sive Measures.
Bt the Asstciatei Press.


EsNEw YORK.. January ia call
ubon the American people to repeal
All the laws that repress initiative
on the part of the men In charge
. 81 the railroads, restrict enterprise
and dampen their enthusiasm, was
made tonight by Charles NJ. Schwao.
Chairman of the. board Of the Beth
lehem Steel Corporation, In address
ing the Ohio Society of New York.
He asked that this be done as a
measure to contribute to the revival
of prosperity in the United States.
saying that "at every turn the rail-
read managers were hemmed in by
rules. regulations and restrietions
which deprive them of power 10 eN-
ercise their. discretion. prevent the
exercise OF the sound business judg-
ment which had grown out OF their
long experience, and interfere Win
their doing acts which, IL done, wouid
contribute immeasurably to the restora-
ton Of prosperity.
No Progress In "HamstrinEing."
"You never make progress by ham,
stringiiie ability and initiative, and
no industry ever gave good service iohs
II ii wasn't prosperous itself.
Saying he had been informed $4,000
o00. 600 would be required to put the
transportation companies abreast Oh
the nations commercial requirements,
MIR Schwab termed an Impossible
situation the fact that more miles
of track had been abandoned IN the
past two years than were built in
that time, ard probably more cars
retired than installed.
I'VE cannot have prosperity. our
country,s;comn9erce cannot go forward
confid emily unless our railroads are
In; a a:Sposition to carry the trans
port alton of the country and are able
to attract the capital needed for them
to perform their service as common
carriers" he continued. =
Because OF restrictive laws, Mr..
Schwab said, railroad rates no longer
were responsive to the changing COM
mercial needs. the managers had been
shorn of the power to exercise enter
prise and private capital was unwiii-
ing to embark in railroad develop
ment except under rigid guarantees.
I'VE should stop knocking our rail-
roads. their presidents and railroad
men in general he added.
Admitting there had been evils in
the past, the steel magnate declared
that infinitely more harmful than the
unearthed financial scandals of years
gone by had been the damage due to
laws restricting enterprise.
Public support Needed.
Let us make our railroad presidents
feel that we regard them as honored
public servants" he said, land let It's
make every man engaged in the rail-
road business feel that the public is
behind him and wants him and his
company to be successful. Protect the
public interest in every way that is
necessary; maintain such regulation of
RAILROADS as actual experience shows
to be justified but abandon all the
regulation which is based merely upon
political motive and popular prejudice.
IF we make our railroad regulations
non-poiitical. restore to our railroad
managers the power to exercise ability
and initiative and make them feel that
the public is behind them with all it's
force and energy the miracles that will
be wrought in the promotion of pros
perity will astoniSh the world"
