Tomkini. of Holy Trinity Church, Philadelphia. Doctor Tomkins set thi house of deputies coins In a two-hour deb.itp late jesterday by n resolution which he introduced nsUue for postponement of all common prayer noop. revision until the next triennial convention. Although the Tomklns's motion v.n voted down yesterday, the effect of Doctor Tomklns's Impassioned peeeh against prayer book revision this jeai was so strong that the whole question was left open for further consideration today. In the course of his remarks on his resolution, Doctor TnmUins read a letter from n prominent Philadelphia ' church woman who.se objection to am i change in the prajer book were rmnll the basis of Doctor Tomklns's argu ment. He deeiued to make Known the name ot tho woman who wrote the letter.

The first appenl for a squat c deal the street lailwnv industry of the couutrv ever lias directed to the riders and nonriders ' f the I nileil States was voiced bv the meiienn Hcc'trlc tinllvvnv Association in the closing session of its thllty ciglilh coiiventinii heie vciterdnv. It said In the plainest Innguago that existing conditions have so impaired tho credit of tho industry that new capital to tho amount of more tl.au SliOO.000.000 a year, which is "abso lutely essential to tho extension' aud improvement of servlco to meet tho re quirements of Ihc public, is no longer to bo obtained." "The condition thus created' the lender. of tho Industry set forth, "threatens in all cases the Impairment, nnd In many the abanodnmrnt, of n servko essential to community growth nnd Improvement." I'or these rontons the convention voted: That the American Dlcctrlc Hall way Association urges upon the pub lic the necessity for n fair and unprejudiced consideration of tho electric railway situation through such of its agencies as will insure the collection and distribution of accurate information, and protect the public and the electric inllwny In dustry against further damago by the spreading of misinformation, to the end thnt the 'necessary new capital may be obtained to provide tho service demanded by the public, "Regulatory bodies must recognize the higher level of prices, if the develop ment of city transportation is to be kept under a parity with other Indus tries," said P. W. Doollttlc. Mllwau kce eUctrlc Hallway. "It would be a radical man who would venture the be lief that prices never will bo reduced, but it I going to take a long time to fatten tho lenn dollar of today. "Material costs have almost doubled with us. Labor costs havo grown from an average of 5000 bcforVj the war to 51100 for the current year, and labor frankly informs us its objective is a minimum wage of 52000 for traction lines."
