AMERICAS NEED.

The great need of our nation to-day is relation: not eccIesi-
astlclsn, not sectarianism, not union of Church and State; but
the Christian religion for our people, for our government, for
all our officials, and for all our legislation.
we need 1T because the prohibition amendment il being
made a mere football in so many places, and our officials are
often too weak or too disloyal to enforce it.
we need 1t because we have had nearly thirteen hundred
thousand divorces granted in a period of forty years.
we need 1t because of the tremendous burdens of taxation
being laid upon our people.
we need 1t because of the great wave of crime that has been
sweeping over the land. Employees are being shot down and
thousands OF dollars are being stolen every day; and the gov
eminent seems pOWerleSs to prevent it.
We need 1t because cOmmercialism, the worship of the gold-
en- calf, blinds the eyes and hardens the heart of so many of our
people.
We need 1t because so many ore pleasure-mad, indulging in
constant effort to be entertained and amused.
We need it because thereis so much secularism and lack of
Christian principle among our politicians.
We need 1t because We have been trying since 1889 to sail
our ship of State under a charter that makes no recognition of
Divine Authority.
The paramount need of our nation is not a revival of bust
ness. til s not an emergency tariff. 1t is not an increase of tom
mage on the seas. It is not better immigration laws. 1t is not
disarmament. 1t is not a change of political parties. 1t is not
education.
The great need of our nation is more religion at the freside,
more religion in the counting room, more religion in the strife
between capital and labor, more religion in the schOOlroom,
more religion at the ballot box, more religion in our court, more
religion at Washington, more religion in our fundamenta law.
blessed is the nation whose God is Jehovah, the people whom
he hath chosen for his own INTERCHANGEABLE Christian States

BANKERS AND MERCHANTS INSURANCE co. OF INTER
EST TO EVERY MISSISSIPPIAN.

The public mind has been more or less concerned tho mast
writing the fire risks of the state and the ability or inability Of
the people to get fire insurance policies written on their resi-
denceS and other similar property.
During all this time, houses have been burning as usual
stores and other buildings have melted away under flames which
were beyond human control.
These facts and conditions have brought home to Mississippi
plans the necessity of having fire insurance companies of our
very own to take care of our fire risks.
l. therefore a great number of the states leading business men
nave found 1t necessary to study the fire insurance business; the
ORGANIZATION u IRE insurance companies and the methods of
their operation.
These men have found it was a common-sense matter. They
nave IOund tnat those who own stock in fire insurance COM
panIes were getting big earnings on their money.
lheSe men found that circumstances indicated that the six
cause OF the litigation with which the reading public is familiar,
were trying to get back. And these men reasoned that these
companies would not want to get back into the state if they were
dong a losing business.
These men found that the fire insurance companies collected
from n people OF Mississippi during the year 192O-the 1921
figures are not yet availabe-for fire insurance premiums 81 i
~135,44S.37 and that during the same period the said fire insur-
ance companies paid losses to the people of Mississippi amount
ing to S2,635, 398.46, or 50, 500, O49.9l more than they paid out.
Ana these hgures dO not take into account the interest from
and surplus.
These men therefore concluded that it was the wise thing
to do,-that it was sound business-to get the people of the
state behlnd another good fire insurance company. Accordingly
a number of the states representative citizens met in the city Of
jackson, January II, and organized within less than two hours
the Bankers and Merchants Fire Insurance COMPANY with al
capital of $4,000, 900. MI. R. Z. Remington, the biggest mer-I
chant In the state, was made president. The directors are
among the states most successful business men-see list reverse
side.
Now then with these facts, does it not occur to YOU that it
would be good business and a sort Of public duty for YOU to
take some stock IN the Bankers and Merchants Fire Insurance /
All the stock is not yet subscribed. We would like to
you Join with US in this splendid enterprise. The company
needs you and you need fire protection: therefore Join with ma
which at the same time will help furnish fire protection to you
and your %neighbors. Think about the matter and write the un-
o ruler Information, which assure you will be II
gladly given. G. B. REYNOLDS

the deficit from March /, 1920 to
March l, 1921, to be accounted for.
The testimor-.o of Mr.. Hines was not
only interesting, but in many respects
instructive, for it demonstrated clear
ly the muddled condition which stifl
exists in the railroad situation. His
estimate of the deficit caused by gov
eminent operation is less than one
half the amount estimated by the rail-
road executives and by his successor.
1t is generally charged that the great
loss sustained by the carriers was due
to expensive government operation,
and yet under the first year of COM
pany operation the roads sustained a
loss equal to more than one-half the
sum claimed by the managers as their
deficit for the entire rs months Of
government operation and one-third
more than the deficit conceded by
Mr.. Hines. Nobody seems to be able
to give a sound explanation of the
Post.

GOVERNMENT RAIL.
ROAD OPERATION

In the opinion of Walker d. Hines
former dlrector-general of railroads
the actual deficit of the railroads dur
ing government operation, covering
a period of 26 months, amounted tC
$7l4,OO0, 600 instead of 1900, OOO,-
600, as estimated by the authorities.
He gave this conclusion in his testi-
mOny before, the Senate committee
on interstate commerce.
The larger figures were arrived at
by accepting the original estimate of
5000, 600 900 made by the railroads.
adding to it 900 900 suggested
by Director General DAVIS end then
adding $500, 900, 600 claimed by the
roads as due to the ineficiency of
labor. The two latter items, Mr..
Hines says, should be ignored entire
ly, and he accepts the original figures
of $9OO,O0O,O 900 as a basis. But he
makes certain deductions which bring
the total down to STA, 900 900.
Thus there is created here a dis
crepancy of more than 81 200, 000,-
600, which is SO largely a matter of
opinion that it probably will be a
long time before a definite agreement
IS reached as to the actual cost to the
l am OdOo VI government |OpoTdLlOn
That is was necessary as a war meas
IRE for the government to take over
railroads is universally conceded and
that 1t was an expensive move, both
to the government and to the roads,
is we'll known. But it is apparent
from the figures cited above that it
will be difficult to agree upon the
cost.
Mr.. Hines was asked to explain to
the committee why the deficit of the
railroads in the first year after their
return to their owners amounted to
$1,000, 900 900, but he admitted he
vas unable to do so. He said he had
,ried to find an explanation, but had
,hus far been unable to reach salts
conclusions. For one thing
lie estimated that the increased price

The press of the State is carrying some salacious articles
ABOUT the 100000 damage suit which Miss Birkhead has filed
against Gov: Russell alleging that he seduced her. While the
proof she alleges seems to be almost conclusive as to the guilt
OF the Governor, we think the matter should be left to the
courts. The Governor is entitled to a fair trial and while the
suit is not filed on a criminal basis, the law holds one innocent
until shown to be guilty.
The whole affair is nauseating. 1t is humiliating to the peo-
pie OF the State, and thinking people are wondering how it is
that a man that is supposed to be fitted for the office of Cover
nor should so conduct himself as to lay himself open to the filing
OF such a suit. People are wondering where the smoke is COM
ing from if there is no fire.
The suit is but another evidence of the blind political policy
that has been pursued by the State for several years and the
toolheartedness of following a jackass even if his ears are not
long.
The suit and its attendant circumstances show the bitter
fruits of electlng men to office simply because they bear a GER
tam partisan stamp and answer, in a measure, the reasons for
nigh taxes and big assessments and the waste Of public funds
winch are now distressing almost every tax payer in the State.

COFFEYVILLE GAS RATE CUT
Company Must Also Replace Pipes
To Prevent Leakage.

Coffeyville, Kan, Sept. 2S.-The
Kansas public utilities commission in
decision which was made public
here today reduces the CoffeyvilIe gas
rate from so to SO cents per thousand
cubic feet. The commission fixed the
valuation of the distributing company
for dividend earning purposes at $254,-
900. The company claimed a valuation
of over 100000.
The commission held that the old
worn out pipes of the company, which
are causing a leakage of nine times the
naxium permissible by the commits
sion, must be replaced at the expense
of the owners of the plant, and re-
fused the petition of the company to
be allowed to set aside $25,000 per
year ASA fund to be used in reducing
the leakage.
Fred Robertson, former destrict at
torney of Kansas, is president. of the
Coffeyville Gas & Fuel company,
which two years ago passed into new
hands. Mr.. Robertson is also attor-
ney for the company and conducted
the company's side of the hearing in
this city, July 81, when a petition by
the city for a reduction in gas was
heard, simultaneously with a petition
of the company for a raise to rs cents
per thousand.
The decision in the Coffeyvil1e case
today is believed to be the first one
handed down by the utilities commits
sion in a good many years reducing
the price of gas.

A Number of Episcopal Churches
Practice Divine Healing.
Chicago. Sept. Decentralization at
the Protestant Episcopal triennial con-
ference of divine healing, and the
question of giving it official sanction
as a part of church work, drew atten-
ton to the fact that several churches
in the Chicago diocese already main
tanned classes in faith healing.
Among such churches are the
Church of the Redeemer, of which

Rev. DR.. Norman P. Hutton is rector
The Rev. H. P. Pullin, assistant rector
Of st. Chrysostom, declared that the
purpose of the class at this church was
not to supplant the physician. but to
cooperate with the physician by
strengthening faith and mind.
"Our method" he said, lis that of
James Hickson. the Anglican layman
who conducted meetings of healing in
Chicago a few years ago. 1t involves
private prayer of intercessfon. meet
ings with prayer and the laying on
of hands, and private conference with
the ill.
1.-THE people of the parish are much
interested with the work. I know OF
no miracles that have resulted from it,
but I am satisfied that those who have
come 10 LneSe meetings Tor neip nave

endeavor to take their minds off their
troubles and to make them realize
that there is something higher then
their minds which directs them.'
