The financial success of the festival
would be certain through one condi-
ton alone. It always has been found
In great volunteer chorus perform
ances of real merit that a great audi
ence is assured through the attrac-
ton of friends and relatives of the
performers. Not only do the perform
ers draw those with whom they are
intimate, but each is an advertising
medium whose enthusiasm causes
many others to come out A chorus
of a thousand singers or even greater
numbers would, through this fact
alone, bring multiple thousands out
to swell the audience
1t should not be difficult to enroll
several thousand associate members
of the festival organization, and the
multiplicand@tos swell these thousands
into the total Of dollars needed TO
meet expenses would not have to be
of great size
A further suggestion has been made
that instead Of associates the finances
might be supplied through the sale of
tickets at graduated prices, just as
they are at professional performances.
1t Is believed. however. that some.
thing would be lost In the general at
mosphere by the substitution Of com.
mercialism for the feeling Of fellow.
ship in a great endeavor that would
be found in the associate and active
membership plan.
All these things. however. are mere.
ly in the stage of suggestion at the
present. The important thing is that
the vision of a great festival Is to
come true. The Commissioners have
pointed the way. The whole-hearted
response of music and civic leaders to
the movement and request for assist,
ance will come once the organization
Is perfected.
The committee to be selected by the
city officials. it is understood, Will be
Of such proportions and personnel as
to include representatives of all the
various musical activities to be ar
ranged as well as to include business
and professional leaders. The selec.
ton Of this committee Is being studied
by the Commissioners at the present
time and their invitations to partici
pate will be sent out within a. few
weeks.
1t Is certain. once proper persons
to consider and act upon plans for
the festival have been selected. al
suggestions as to program. financing
and personnel will be received with
gratitude. Somewhere among the
various plans suggested viii be found
the ideal arrangements for the prof
ect. And when the final plan is pu,
into effect. If present enthusiasm is
any criterion, the movement will
gather momentum, until at it's culmi
nation, next May, Washington will
see one of the greatest civic demon
strations of her history. Her place in
the musical sun will be established
and the succeeding years will see q
gradual ascent until at last Washing
ton will be the mecca Of musicians
of the entire Nation.
The material is here, the direction
has been pointed out by the Commits
sioners, the path lies straight ahead
The success of Washingten's boldest
step musically is in the hands of heI
people.

Permission to intervene IN the
Wan Sweringen Nickel Plate merger
rian was granted today by the In
fersfate Commerce Commission 10
John s. stanton, Of Brooklyn, ~. x,
and to the American Snort Line
Railroad Association, representing
numerous small railroads.
Stanton, who is stockhoider IN
the Hooking Valley, one OF the ran.
roads involved in the proposed
merger, told the commission the
proposed lease of the property OF
the Hooking Valley to the CheSa-
peake and Ohio lis contrary to the
provisions of the statutes Of Ohio,
relative to leases by railroad corpo-
rations, in that 1t does not pro-
vide for q rental equal at least TO
the net earnings of the lessor for
the fiscal year, next preceding the
one in which the lease is made.
He further claimed 1t does not
provide any security whatsoever for
the payment Of the rental and the
preservation Of the lessons prop
erty."
AS the representative of various
short lines, the American. Short
Line Railroad Association said those
roads have physical connection with
and participate IN through routes
and joint rates with one or more
of the railroads involved In the
proposed merger, which VIII be
affected by any order the commits
sion may make in the case.
It was claimed by the association
that the proposed merger is not
in conformity with plan adopted
by the commission for consolida-
ton Of all the railroads in Eastern
territory into q limited number Of
aystems.
ct does appear, however" the
association said, that If the appli-
cation Is granted I'VE railroads Of

effect consolidated, while certain
weak roads that should be grouped
with the said five railroads are not
included in the plan so proposed"

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Use of purchased Money"

In preceding article in this series
the process of selling money" was
discussed. By selling money is meant
turning into cash securities or com
modities or other Valuable property.
The time to do this, obviously, is
when the market price of securities
or commodities or property is abnor-
mally high.
The question, then, arises, what is
one to do with the purchased money?
If one obtains it by selling securities
It cannot be invested to bring any re-
turn without buying other securities,
and so one faces a temporary, at
least, loss of income. BY our hy-
potheSiS, however, the money is
bought because one believes that il
can be invested more advantageouSly
at some future time than at the pres
ent. Now there are a number of
possibilities for one who has decided
that ready cash is preferable at any
particular time. If it. is a small in
vestor who is of this opinion, the saw
ingS bank offers him a safe and con-
veneint medium for his funds. The
savings banks nowadays pay some
where around / per cent on deposits
and while more can be obtained at
present securities, the savings bank
deposit is instantly available when
one reaches the decision that the time
has come to repurchase the securities.
If the investor has large means.
his best plan is to buy bonds or notes
of very short term, maturing within
one. two or three years. If these
bonds or notes are high-grade invest
ments-and none other ought to be
considered for this purpose-they, too,
may be turned into cash on short no
tice with negligible loss. 1t is the
rule that when the general average
of stocks and bonds is very high and
money Cheap-that is, loans at low
rate of interest, short-term invest
ments sell TO give a very small re-
turn. That cannot be helped. but
that disadvantage is compensated for
rate of interest-short-ter invest
ing can be converted into cash when
ever the investor is of the opinion
that the time has again come to re
enter the security market.

COTTON SHOWS RALLY
AFTER "SELLING OFF"
Market Opens Steady With Con-
tinuing Trade Buying and Gov
ering as Feature.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, August 12.-The cot
ton market opened steady today at an
advance of points on August, but
generally 8 to IL points lower owing
to relatively weak Liverpool cables.
Full response to the decline abroad
was prevented by continued trade buy
ing or covering. however, and after
selling off to 23.69 for December, or 10
points net lower, the market rallied.
Apparent uncertainty prevailed as
to the showing Of todays weekly
weather report. the disposition to take
profit on recent sales being promoted
by complaints of high temperatures
in the Southwest, or claims of an i'm
proved spot demand in some of the
Southern markets. December SOLD up
to 1881, and the market held within
a few points of yesterdays closing at
the end of the first hour.
Offerings increased after the publica
ton Of the weekly report of the
Weather Bureau. which evidently
made a favorable impression on senti-
ment Prices eased off to 1882 for
December, net declines Of 16 to Is
points, but there was some trade buy
ing on a scale down, while covering
continued, and the market steadied up
again. At midday December was sell
ing around 23.47, the general list
showing net declines of about to
points.
NEW YORK. August 12.-Cotton futures
closed steady at net advance of IA to IL
