EASTERN ROADS OPPOSE MERGER
Will Resist Efforts for Combina.
 ti0n With West

Washington, Jan. 13,--NotIce that the American Short Line Railroad association will oppose the eastern trunk line consolidation proposed by the Van Sweringen brothers has been given the interstate commerce commission.
 In making this announcement to- day before the senate interstate commerce committee F, B. Cain, representing the association said the Van Sweringen brothers are propos- ing to leave out number of short line roads connecting with the sys- tenn because they will not come in on less than their physical valuation.
 The consolidation proposed by the Van Sweringen's embraces the Nickel Plate, the Chesapeake & Ohio, the Hooking Valley. tho Erie and the Pere Marquette, Mir. Cain declared the commission had been approving consultations leaving out short lines which 1t had indicated should be embraced in the proposed mergers, and he urged that congress force change in policy.
 The short lines representatives said if the present policy were pur- sued the smaller roads would lose out all along the line.
 Bird NJ. Robinson, president ofthe Short Line association, said there should be some consultations, and that his organization was not taking to have weak roads unloaded on anybody.
 If small road Is not rendering public service, 1t should be dis mantled," he said. If 1t Is render ing such service it should be includ- ed in the consultations. If the par ties cannot agree on the price we are willing 10 have the interstate commerce commission fix it."

AGED DQUEEN SHOWS
 INTEREST IN CITY
Has Not Lost Touch With the Affairs of Dear Old London i

London, Jan. 1S.-Even at her
 country home in Yorkshire to which
 she retired a year ago. Queen Alex
 ander has not lost her touch with
 the affair of London with which she
 has been associated for more than
 half a century. The hundreds of
 hostesses who entertain during the
 season, like the royal family, always
 remember the Queen Mother and
 she receives invitations to all affairs
 just as she did when she lived at Marlborough House, across the park from her sons home.
 Whenever a dinner or party Is given by anyone whose position al- lows. an invitation is sent to the Queen Mother, and this is usually followed by note of regret and an expressed wish that little account of the affair, with the names of the guests. the dresses and other details be sent to her. When the queen first retired to Sandringham most of her friends made regular trips to visit her. but during the last few months her physician has demanded that she give up the fatigue of these visits and 1t is now only through the post that she can hear of the neigh borhood gossip.
 When Queen Alexandra moved in- 10 Marlborough House she con- tinued to keep open house for the many members of the royal family who enjoyed the right of sentry to the palace under the genial Edward. The custom is still continued at Sandringham and there is hardly a day when some member of the fam fly Is not the guest of the Queen Mother.
 The king and queen have spent several weeks with her at Sandring- ham this year. and each of the princes had paid visit to his grand mother. Recently before the two sons of Princess Mary came to Lon- don they were taken to see their t-grandmother and at the same time were officially introduced to their grand-aunts. the Dowager Elm press of Russia, the Dowager Queen Olga of Greece. and their aunt, Princess Victoria, who Is her moth- CTS constant companion.
 Queen Alexandra, who Is eighty years old. still takes daily walk through her gardens to visit her kennels, for she is an ardent lover

Seattle, Wash, Dec. 1S.-Discovery that fish oils can be deodorized by passing hydrogen, nitrogen or carbon dioxide gas through them has been annouced by Dr. II. k.

Stockholm, Jan. 13.-To such vast proportions has the liquor snug Slins trade developed in the Swed- ish Archipelago that the authorities have decided to use airplanes in hunting rum runners.

ties Make Fitting Memo
riaIs to Great.

President Coolidge is on record as
favoring universities and institutions
of higher learning as fitting memo
rials. In a book, Great University
Memorials" just published by the
University of Chicago, President
Coolidge declares, 'One test Of the
civilization of any age is the regard
past and the opinion of posterity.
1.-The Greeks and Romans had these
in high degree said the President.
Dante spoke of the future in the last
ing record of his great love for
Beatrice. Gothic cathedrals of the
Middle Ages still stand as reminders
of abiding reverence. The Lincoln
Memorial is built for the centuries
in the confident belief that genera
tions and generations yet to come will
prize 1t as a magnificent inspiration.
Sees Idea As Sound.
1.-The memorial idea is Sound and is
sure to grow as increasing opportuni-
ties present themselves. One OF the
most encouraging signs is the tend
ency today to look to institutions of
higher education for memorial sites.
No more fitting agencies for this pur-
pose can be imagined. For universi-
ties are not repositories of the dead.
They are more alive than the mar
ket place; their eyes are not only on
the present, but on the past and the
future. And the life within their walls
is always young and aequisitive. To
place your name. by gift or bequest.
in the keeping of an active university
is to be sure that the name and the
project with which it is associated will
continue down the centuries to quick
en- the minds and hearts of youth. and
thus make a permanent contribution

vi MUSIC

MiecZyslaw NUM-, remarkably
talented young Polish pianist. gave a
charming recital before a small au-
dience at Central High School last
night. Mr.. NUM-, pupil of the great
Italian, Busoni. gave conservative
yet colorful program, full of selections
that should be familiar to the public
and of general interest, yet the public
did not respond. 1t Is more or less
of mystery why people will not go
to these recitals by fine artists, many
of them well known for many seasons
as firSt-class singers and musicians
If the concert were given in one of
the big theaters downtown, the house
would be filled, but, apparently, be-
cause the Community Center Depart
ment of the public schools sponsors
these particular recitals and the price
is only about half that asked in the
larger houses, the public does not
cooperate. Moreover, these recitals
were planned especially for students
of music, yet only handful of the
hundreds of piano students in Wash
ington were present last night. Many
who aspire to appear in recitals and
general musicals did not take sufficient
interest to attend.
Playing Fascinates.
Mr.. NUM- has decided individuality
of tone. exquisite command of his
softest Shadings in Interpretation and
marvellous flexibility and accuracy of
touch. His opening number, Busonis
arrangement of Bach Organ
Toccata, Adagio and Fugue in c.
Major" was fascinating in the way
in which each theme was emphasized
and the brilliant passages given well
balanced contrast with those so soft
in tone that they seemed mere
whispers from the keys. 1t is evil
dent that Mr.. NUM- enjoys playing
Bach immensely.
The famous Moonlight" sonata of
Beethoven was given unique inter-
probation next and followed by a
group of short numbers that won
hearty appreciation. They included
Godowsky's arrangements of Rameau's s
"Menuet," Schubert's Moment Musi
cal" and Albeniz's Tango" all very
descriptive and melodious, and three
Rachmaninoff numbers, Prelude in
G.. Major" and "Etudes Tableaux in
B Minor and E Fiat Major" Godow-
sky's Alt Wien" was the encore.
In accordance with tradition the
final group was all-Chopin. There
were nocturne, a mazurka, the gay
little Minute Waltz" and "Polonaise,
Opus 53." The encores were Pre-
ludeS in CT Major and Z Flat Major"
Waltz in c Sharp Minor all by
Chopin, and a fascinating composition,
THE Music Box" by Sauer Mr..
NUM- Chopin is intriguingly different
and decidedly worth listening to-
1.-The Music Box" played here in the
last recital of Josef Hofmann, was
given an Interpretation not quite so
suggestive Of the mechanical toy as
Mr.. Hofmann's. yet one that had the
atmosphere of the theme.
