RAILROADS URGED TO ADOPT GREATER EFFICIENCY PLANS Roadmasters of Country Want Motor-driven Ma chinery to Supplant Old Hand Methods Say Sav ing Will Be Large. Larger application by the railroads of the country of scientific efficiency prin ciples In their equipment departments Is bolng strongly urged by tho Hoadmostors and Malntcnanco of Way Association of America. Statistics compiled by tho association show that while tho weight of tracks used by railroads throughout the United State's has Increased but 37 per cent. In tho last 20 yearB, the unit load hauled over tho tracks has fn somo cases Increased more than 300 per cent. Increase In the weight of track has iifcessarlly called for the employment of more men to care for tho track under I tho heavy loads which It Is required to carry. The association recommends that motor driven machlnory and toolB be used by the railroads so that a larger amount of ground can be covered and better care given the malntenanco of tracks. Toward the Increaso In efficiency, use of section motorcars Is considered on Im portant part. It Is pointed out that where motor driven machinery Is used It will result In n saving of 2 cents a mile, the cost of fuel to tho motorcars, repairs, de preciation and wear of car and time ot the men. In view of this It is recom mended by a committee reporting to the association that motor driven cars be used Instead of handcars.

Dr. Joseph Krauskopf, nt tho New Year service In keneceth Israel Synagogue this morning on "The Climax of Materialism." declared there was not a single worthy object or a noble Ideal, worth the shedding of a single man's hlnnrt Ih.Ii.J.J .. . .. . .. u,uuu, n.tiuutu iiuiung me causes nor vanced by the belligerent nations of Eu rope as justifiable for war. He declared the war was the outcome of material am bitions, and added that 20 centuries of Christianity have failed to soften the hearts of men and have not Inspired them to other than material strivings. Dr. Krauskopf spoke In part ns fol lows; "In all the official statements that the bolllgcrcnt nations advance as Justifiable onuses for the war there Is not a single worthy object, not a noble Ideal worth the shedding of n single man's blood. Tho nations are actuated by the grossest kind of material ambitions, temporal or com mercial. Europe Is hanging on the dark abyss of the Middle Ages. It hns reached the tragic climax of Its half century of materialism. .n'i''Jm.n!'m 80cm." ,0 be the e "' l VlaL,orec thnt "m "Ins In the world. Twenty centuries of Christianity have not softened the brutality In the hearts of men nnd have not Inspirited their souls with other than materlnl ?..LV,i .Rs; .. T1,e dominant religion has .1! .I5 ,rl,Pd ns Practical guide for the Idealism of the warring nations. Even Oriental heathendom has learned the lesson from Its western miles, to bite with its toeth, while its lips pray nnd cry, 'Peace.' "Never before was God's purpose, with the Jewish people more definitely shown than In this, civilization's, crisis. Never was tho presenco of Judaism more re quired In the world than In this reversion to gory barbarism. Never before did mankind need to heed the clarion coll of Jewish Ideals moro than at this hour of Its most colossal cnlnmlty. For Jewish Ideals are to tho world what tho soul- Is to the body. Without the prophetic hopes of Justice and righteousness nmong men and nations of brotherly love and uni versal peace, races and peoples must do cay and die as docs the clay of the mean est beast. Had the warring nations been dominated by these Ideals, to which the Jews have been witnesses from the time when Cod first. Inspired the prophets to reveal them, the spectacle of barbaric horror. Into which Europe Is now trans formed, could never havo been staged. "It Is good to bo a Jew nnd to hold aloft the bnnncr of Judaism In a neutral nation like ours. Better still. In these sorrowful days Is tt to be a Jew on the battle line, to die In the carnage, which Is the climax of mnterlnllsm, and to pro claim with the last breath the slogan that la to save mankind from the ma terialistic death, 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God Is One." For, In this sign nlone can men conquer their passions and their rnge. In this faith alone Is the practical Idealism of brotherly love and universal peace."
