screens but this idea is an improve
ment on that.
The table merely tips forward from
the center of the top: it can be used
as fire screen and there is no stand
ard to be moved out of the way when
not in use.
This is a table which fills vacant
corner-and you know how awkward
corner can appear If it is neglected
It might even be left with the top up
and stocked with a reading lamp, a
few books. magazines and smoking ac-
cesSories.
The top may be decorated with an
interesting scene or conventional, de-
sign, for this gives the piece an espe-
cially decorative effect when it is used
as q screen, and when cards are to be
played it may be covered with MORE,
satin, linen or taffeta cloth. 1t is ad-
visable to make the cover of material
which is washable, thereby making it
possible always to have an immaculate
top on which to play cards.

NEW DEAL NEAR
! FOR RAILWAY
y; CONTROL .
BY HARRY WARD
International News Service

Reports reaching Washington to-
Gay that closely guarded confer
ences are being held between high
Officials Of the Baltimore and
Ohio, New York Central and the
Van Sweringen interests gave
color to predictions that further
independent merger applications
VIII be filed with the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
. The highly favorable showing
the Baltimore and Ohio has made
/ IN endeavoring to convince the
commission it should be allowed to
nave stock control of the Buffalo,
Rochester and Pittsburgh in ad-
vance OF consideration of its gen.
eral merger plan and the eXpec-
tatlon that an equally good show
ing Will be made in the Buffalo

> Vineed many railroad leaders that
tneSe independent merger appli'
cations stand good chance of
the commissions approval.
have Much to Gam
AS the Baltimore and Ohio and
the Van SWeringens stand to gain
more than any other existing syS-
TENS from the commissions ten
tative consolidation program, it
seems probable they would lose no
Time in making use of the opportu-
nlty it offers to push their projects
along.
While no information has been
Forthcoming about these confer
enceS. it is reasonable to assume
the New York Central participa-
ton in them is largely concerned
with negotiation between the
trunk lines as to the disposition
Of the Reading and jersey Cen
tral. The New York CentraPs
holdings in the Reading amount
to about 100000 shares, or ap-
proximately the same as, the
Baltimore and Ohio's holdings.
V The New York Centrals in
veStment in Reading is said to
be about $53,000,000, making it
evident that large financial oper-
) ations will be involved when the
deal goes through.
Partially to meet this big sum
the Baltimore and Ohio will nave
$18,0OO,O00 through the eventual
sale of Western Maryland stock
recently ordered by the commits
sion. The requirement Of the New
York CentraFs Reading holdings
AWill increase the Baltimore ana
Onio's interest in the Reading TO
slightly more than so per cent,
and will carry with it control OF
the Jersey Central.
' It is expected the Baltimore q
Ohio will file an application with
the Commission outlining the
terms under which it proposes
to consolidate the two roads as
soon as the deal is closed.
In the meantime the battle over
the proposal of the New York,
Chicago and Pittsburgh to build
a 284-mile line across Pennsyl-
vania from Easton to Allegheny
City. which L. F, Loree said Would
be 1.-The backbone of the premier
railroad of the United States )"
will be resumed before the Com
mission on January %.
The Eastern trunk lines are pre-
senting a solid front in their op-
nosition to this new line. Tney
have had several weeks in which
to prepare further opposing teStl-
nony, which they Will submit
next Tuesday.
