CAR CO.
TO HELP CLEAR
RADIO TROUBLE
Co. Operation Is Pledged to
Times in Eliminating
Interference.

The indianapolis Street Railway
Company will give The Times Inter-
ference Editor 100 per cent cooper
alton in clearing up interference
caused by the street railway cars.
That is the statement of j. P.
Tretton, president Of the company,
After a meeting Of officials, The
Times radio interference man, and
a member of the engineering de-
partment of the General Electric
Company, to determine the best
means of clearing up the trouble
caused by the street cars. 1t was
agreed that any trouble found by
The Times radio interference man
would be given attention at once
and taken care of, within reasonable
extent.
Cars causing the most interior
ence will be taken care of first.
The Times radio interference man
will report all cars with trouble to
the company for repair, so please
notify him of any cars causing
trouble in your vicinity.
HOw's Your Reception
Radio fans living within the fol-
lowing boundaries are urged to
write to The Times and state Just
what reception you are getting,
whether good or bad: Thirty eighth
street south, Sixtieth street north,
the canal west, and Central avenue
east.
This community has for two weeks
had several very annoying interfer-
ences, and a careful check on the
public's report will enable The Times
to locate the major cases.
Gregg Kelly, Charlottesville, writes
to The Times interference editor
as follows: I'VE have a high tension
wire that runs across the north
end of Charlottesville, with voltage
of $4,000. 1t is impossible for us to
get radio reception with this con-
dition prevailing.
Can this trouble be cured by tear
ing out the line? If so, what would
you suggest to have the company
cure this trouble and in event it ig-
nores requests, what legal rights
have I to force them?"
Removal of the line would be the
only solution under the present form

A-PIenty, Too.

The embryo aviator is in for a
race treat this Christmas. If he
is bit skeptical let him visit the
Em-Roe sporting goods store toy
land, on the second floor.
Here, standing out head and
shoulders above the lavish display
of Christmas toys which would more

average youngster, the young bird
man will see miniature airport,
equipped with every known air de-
vice.
Airplanes that fly, Zeppelins that
"zep," hangers, landing fields and
signals. Oh, boyI
The zeppelins, patterned after the
famous Graf Zeppelin, are gigantic
playthings. The airplanes, ranging
in price from $3.50 to SIS, really
fly, some for more than one hun
dred yards. Some Of the planes
are equipped with 110-volt electric
motors.
Across from the air field are the
shipyards, where miniature yachts,
s1oops, schooners, in fact, sailing
vessels of all types are on display
Many of these boats are too large
for the bathtub, with sails which ex-
tend almost three feet above the
keelS.
Ayoungster's playground, equipped
with horizontal bars, swings, rings,
slides and punching bag equipment,
is in one corner, while an unusually
large display of electric toys-auto-
mobiles, trucks and moving vans
holds sway in another section of the
toy realm.

or government ownership, has the
discrimination been permitted which
is now resting like death on Mary
land mining. Our government ought
not only be just. 1t ought to establish
justice with convenient speed, with
promptness."
Concluding his subject, Mr.. Lewis
said he felt the obligation which
should actuate a public man in secur-
ing this immediate relief and that if
he was favored by public confidence
he would, as member of congress,
apply himself in securing government
action in the direction of relief. He
added that it might be possible to
arouse Congress to the discharge of a
public duty long neglected by the
government, namely, to an organiza-
ton of the whole bituminous coal in

LEWIS TALKS ON FREIGHT
RATE DISCRIMINATION
Democratic Congressional Candi-
date Promises Kempton Audi
ence Action If He Is Elected

David J. Lewis, Democratic candi-
date for congress, in a stirring adj
dress at Kempton on Monday night
denounced the government freight
rate discrimination against the coal
mining industry in Maryland before
large audience.
Mr.. Lewis in his address declared
the miners were suffering, the opera
tors were subjected to heavy losses
and the industry was on the verge Of
bankruptcy. Once the outstanding in
dustry of the state, today practically
at standstill, Mr.. Lewis pointed out
that the cause was freight rate dis
elimination He said: There are still
left undug in these mountains of ours
5000, 100000 tons of coal in nine COM
mercial seams, enough coal to supply
the whole soft coal demand of the ma
ton for ten years hence; yet, what IS
the condition of Maryland's coal min
ing industry Is it progressing? Re-
gretfully we see it retrograding. In
1920 the strong arms of the Georges
Creek and its environs sent to mar
ket six million tons of coal. In 1927
this production was reduced one-half
and l am reliably advised by the lead
ers of the industry that the future
holds no promise. While Maryland
production has been cut in half, the
production of the New River region
and Pocahontas region, 479 miles from
the Atlantic tidewater, has actually
increased What is the cause? 1t con-
sists of two great circumstances of
discrimination against the Maryland
industry.
''The first discrimination comes by
an act of nature by which the New
River and Pocahontas regions are en-
bowed with eight and nine foot coal
seams, easily and cheaply mined,
which could not be corrected, of
course. The second comes from the
freight rate making power which has
so farmed the tariff rates that the
Maryland fields, less than 200 miles
from tidewater, are obliged to pay a
freight rate on coal virtually as high
as the New River and Pocahontas re-
gions pay for distance of 500 miles,
This last discrimination is chargeable
to the rate making powers and ought
to and can be, corrected and righted.
"History can explain this wrong
continued Mr.. Lewis. "The great dis
elimination coming about when the
railroads of the United States, them
selves possessed the power and made
the railway rates. They made rates
purely with a view to advance thell
own interests without reference to jus,
tice or the comparative costs OF ser,
vice. The government, however, some
years ago took this rate making power
away from the railroads and the Unit
ed States government is now the re-
sponsible rate maker and the railroads
themselves have lost this power be-
cause of grave abuses Of it."

The Colonel Is Contrary.

Colonel Bell hasn't been doing the
right thing by our Nellie" during the
past few weeks. Whenever Scoop has
gone to him for suggestions and pic
lures, he has pretended being too busy
to give any. "The summer season is
on" the Colonel said, "and l can't
be like the grasshopper, hopping after
you all summer for nothing. There is
too much time to do that in winter"
But after Scoop told the Colonel he
was getting his advertising in The
Republican free he consented to lend
him his camera and so this weeks
pictures will be available.
J. L. Mac, Garrett county's most
illustrious county agent, was caught
just after he had returned from the
country in a hurry to make the adj
dress of welcome to the State Gran
gers.
Mr.. McGlone was in the act of tell
ing the grangers about the beauty
spots, the healthful climate, the cool
weather, ETC., of Maryland's larges5
and best county. The reason for his
f1owery tongue was analysed and it
was found that his trip to the coun-
try had been for the purpose of at
tending sick cow. The COW this time
happening to be a bull, was cured by
the county agent and brought along to
assist him in his welcoming speech.
And how it helped him!

THE UNSHAKEN KINGDOM

Jesus prophesied, Heaven and
earth may pass away; but my words
shall not pass away" Concerning His
Church, He said, "The gates of hell
shall not prevail against it."
What commentary does history of
fer on these prophecies?
Hardly had Jesus assembled to the
Father when all the furies of hell
broke loose in a desperate effort to
annihilate His church. The first To-
cal and sporadic prosecutions by the
Jewish authorities soon gave place to
vast, worldwide prosecutions by the
Roman EmperorS, Nero, Domitian,
Diocletion, who used the whole power
of the great administrative machinery
of the empire in systematic, relentless,
bloody efforts to blot out forever the
Church of the Crucifed.
But Jesus had said that the gates
of hell shall not prevail against it.
Instead of Rome conquering Christi
anity, Christianity conquered Rome.
The Church, after centuries of con-
fict, won for herself a position, not
only of liberation, but of power and
influence in the Latin civilization.
But then followed the barbarian in
vasions from the north afu the de-
cline and fall of the Roman Empire
under the smashing blows of the Goths
and the Vandals. The collapse of Rome
was in many ways the greatest disas-
ter of the ages; it was not simply the
collapse of the Roman government, it
was the collapse of ancient civiliza-
ton. Art, science, literature, philoso-
ply, jurisprudence-every one of the
brillian achievements of the old
Graeco-Roman world went down in
the ruin and desolation of the Dark
Ages. Everything, except
The Church. The Church was the
one institution which survived. The
Church is the one institution which
with unbroken continuity binds to-
gether the ancient, the medieval, and
the modern worlds. For Jesus said,
Heaven and earth may pass away,
but my words shall not pass away
In 1889 the world was rocked to its
foundations by one of the most vol
canic social upheavals of history
the French Revolution. At the height
of the Reign of Terror a solemn pro-
cession moved through the streets of
Paris and entered the Cathedral OF
Notre Dame. And woman, a prosti-
tute with painted cheeks, was placed
upon throne, while the crowd shout
ed: Hail! Goddess of Reason. Chris
tianity is dead. God is abolished
Long live the Goddess of Reason!"
But the Goddess of Reason was
short-lived, just as will be the effort
of the Bolshevists in our own time
to outlaw Christianity in Russia. Fol-
Jesus said, "The gates of hell shall
not prevail against it"
1t is, indeed, a matter of genuine
establishment that the Church has con.
tinued from earliest times through
political upheavals, social convulsions
and intellectual revolutions; that with
stubborn vitality it has adapted it.
self to radical changes of environment
