CHRISTMAS DAY

Throughout the Christmas world Christmas is
celebrated in commemoraton of the birth of Christ,
although the exact date of that event is not known
Observance of Christmas was first officially set for
December 25 by Pope Julius in the fourth century,
and conceded with certain pagan festivals which
were held about the time of the winter sostice.
Even to this day many of the customs which
surround Christmas season may be traced to pagan
sources. This may be accounted for by the fact
that early missionaries did not disturb the harmless
native customs of their converts, but gradually
merged them with Christian observances. The Civ
ing of Christmas gifts, the decorations of holly and
mistletoe, the feasting and other features of the
Christmas observance are of very ancient origin.
Christmas therefore, has double significance
the religious and the socia-the latter perpetual
ing the customs of many peoples. It is perhaps the
most widely observed of any of the years holidays,
and it's social observance is not entirely confined to
adherents of Christianity.
No day is so closely associated with the spirit
of "peace on earth, good will toward men," While
there has long been tendency to commercialize
the Christmas season it is marked by much genuine
charity and kindness, and the CHEEKY greeting
merry Christmas is usually sincere expression
of frendliness and good wishes.

Banker Doubts u. S. Will
Approve Northern Merger
Claims Roads Sought to Pick Lines
for Consolidation-Law Pro-
vides Competition

Minneapolis, Dec. IA be-
1ief-amounting to a conviction
that the United States govern
ment will not approve the plans of
the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific railways, for merging as
the Great Northern Pacific, was ex-
pressed in Minneapolis Thursday
by F. J. Lisman, of New York,
head of the investment banking
house of F. J. Lisman & Co., and
a national authority on railroad fl
. nancing and consultations.
"The interstate commerce COM
mission, executing the mandates
of congress, never will allow rail-
roads to pick and choose the lines
that they desire to include in their
consolidation programs-and that
is what the Northern roads have
sought to do" Mr.. Lisman said.
owe must remember that the
transportation act of 1920, includ-
ing its merger provisions, was
passed in the interests of the peo-
pie of the United States, not of
any railroads or their stockholders.
1t is not merely my opinion but
my conviction as well that the
Northern roads are not going to
get the governments approval of
their unifcation program as laid
before the commission"
Another reason cited by Mr..
Lisman, as basis of his forecast that
the Northern merger plan will be
disapproved, is the fact that the
law provides that consultations
must be worked so as to preserve
existing competitive situations.
This again is something that is not
provided for in the merger scheme,
which rather would eliminate some
OF the strongest competition in the
northwest, Mr.. Lisman declared.
All in all, the northwest railway
situation has improved greatly
but only to the extent made posi-
BILE by increased operating efficien-
NV and the betterment of general
hditions resulting from two good
rain crops in succession.
"The carriers in the northwest
as well as in other sections are re-
fducing the ratio of operating ex-
penses to gross revenues at the
average rate of per cent a year,"
MIR. Lisman said. "But this i'm
portant saving resulting mainly
ly from skilled management, is not
allowed to improve the financial
position of the lines in any mark
ed degree. Instead, the saving has
to be passed on to employees in the
form of wage increases and to ship
pers in rate reductions"

the most practical method of catch
ing up in highway construction,
according to C. M. IBabcock, COM
missioner of highways. If traffic
were more nearly stable, Mr.. Bah
cock says, he would prefer the
pay-as-you-go plan. But registra-
ton figures do not indicate that
this point is in sight. The regis
tration in 1928 to date is 22,782
greater than at this date last year,
while registration in 1927 was 49,
761 more than in 1926. In other
words, there have been 6,021 more
new cars registered this year than
last year.
The new vehicles bring some ad-
ditional revenue, but it takes from
one to two years before this money
can be transformed into finished
highways. In the meantime the
new cars and trucks are on the
road cutting up the gravel and in
creasing the maintenance bill. The
growth in the traffic burden on the
state highways, Mr.. Babcock says,
is much greater than the increase
in registration. People drive
twelve insted of eight months each
year, they drive faster, and they
use. more large trucks, all of which
tends to wear out the highways,
particularly the unpaved routes.
1--WE have paved 113 miles this
year, graveled 298 miles and grad
ed 272 miles," Mr.. Babcock says.
eff both traffic and highway reve-
nues remained the same each year,
We would eventually get the system
completed. 1t would be- good
many years before the whole
system would be paved, but we
would be getting ahead. But with
the large increase in traffic we
have each year, the improvements
do not offset the added traffic bur-
den. With license rates reduced
on trucks, and with one third of
the gas tax taken away, it will be
still more difficult to keep the
highways in shape for the steady
stream of vehicles.
"To make the gas tax so large as
to provide funds which would en-
able us to catch up on traffic de-
mands, would hardly be fair to pre-
sent day drivers. A four cent tax
would not be unfair, in view of the
fact that motorists will benefit
from it both when driving on trunk
highways and secondary roads. 1t
would yield the trunk highway fund
about the same amount in 1929 as
two cent tax yields in 1928, since
the amendment takes effect inn
mediately but the increase would
not take effect for several months.
Whatever rate is fixed for the
gas tax, we can get more for our
money by the bond plan than in
any other way. At the present
rate we would pave ouly little
more than 200 miles in the next
two years, and the increased traf-
fic would increase our mainten-
ance bill. But if bonds are auth
