There is 4 Spiritualism was nttflcked as degrad ing by Bishop Garland in his Bermon today at the noon Lenten services in the Garrick Theatre under the auspices of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew. He spoke with contempt of mediums and said that a man sank "to the low est degradation to which he could go when we went to consult familiar spirits." Bishop Garland said that he had pre pared a different sermon for the serv ices, but had decided not to use It after reading a letter that had been written to a newspaper by n clergyman. He disagreed, he said, with this clergy man's Interpretation of the Bible.' Bishop Garland said that there was nothing in the New Testament wMM, supports belief in sniritualism and that the chapter in the Old Testament which tells of Saul's visit to the witch to con suit with the spirit of Samuel did not support spiritualism. "Most modern rninmimfAfnn M Bishop Garland, "think that Samuel appeared to Saul, but I do not think so." Doesn't Object to Psychical Research "1 have no obicction to nsvrhlooi Vn. search. said Bishop Gurland, "but when it comes to spiritism I can see no good. After a study of the effect. A hnv n Pltv Hall corridor, out- aide Council's finance committee room, where the Public Service uommission was sitting came as a climax this aft ernoon to pungent criticisms of thp Frankford. Tacony and Holmesburg Street Railway Co. The principal witness against tho company was George T. Sale, recently center of a controversy wim oiccr mem bers of the old city market commission over 10 pr cent stores. 7hen Mr. Sale left the hearing room his testimony was questioned by offi cials of thc company and a war of vords followed. The noise disturbed Public Service Commissioners Clement and Renn, and thc latter ordered the corridor to be cleared. The disputants were "shooed" away by Harry T. Wlttig, scrgeant-at-arms of the Council. Hits Company Management In his testimony before the commis sioners Mr. Sale charged that the com pany management is worac now than ever before. He said it still maintains a single track although a double track is needed. He added that company officials have laid out a golr course in back of their car barn and have equipped a gym nasium. Mr. Sale said he questioned the propriety of those steps when better service was needed for car riders. Thc remedy, ne continued, was either to have funds for improvements raised by popular subscription in the sections served by the company or to have the Rapid Transit Co. build extensions on Melrose and Tacony street!. Commissioner Clement suggested that the commission's engineer consult with officers of the Holmesburg compnny, the Rapid Transit Co. and the complain ants and report thc results of the con ference two weeks from today. In an attempted rebuttal of thc com plaint brought by Frederick F. C. Meis ncrr against the Holmesbure comnanv.s William Mills, the company's president, snid it had made n net operating gain last year of $18,000, but suffered a net loss of ,$35,000 because of taxes and other expenses. .

Disagreement Over Leviathan John D. York, of Chicago, a marine engineer, told thc Senate committee that the I.eiathan could be recondi tioned only in the German yard where the ship was built. R. L. Hague, engi neer for the shipping board, disagreed, saying that ull of the work on the Leviathan could be done here, except docking, no drydock in this countrv being large enough. .ur. lork also said the International Mercantile Mnrine had offered only R80 a ton for the former German ships, but paid $160 a ton for British tramp steamships, although the German es sels were ."Inestimably superior" to the tramp vessels.

He said he not only helped clear thc track of ice nnd snow, but also ran a car, as thc operating force was de pleted by illness. An unusual complaint against the Rapid Transit Co. was made when thc commissioners took up the complaint of thc Cliveden Improvement Association. The association previously had stated to the commission that the Rapid Tran sit Co. would provide universal free transfers on a five-cent fare nnd could spend $1,000,000 a year on extensions without impairing the company's rev enues. No Analysis of Finances But at thc hearing today no analysis of thc company's finances or plans ma terialized. James McCrea. 423 East Moreland avenue, Chestnut Hill, the association s first witness, maintained that the trolley service to Chestnut Hill was very poor. The unusutl complaint came when he told of a young woman riding in a Cheltcn nvenue car who was unable to leave her seat because defective wiring had charged the scat with electricity and held her fast. The motorman had to pull thc pole from thc wire, he said, before she could be released. Other Complaints Heard Complaints against the Rapid Transit Co.'s Fox Chase and Olney lines were made bv Jennie A. Greenwood. 20,ri0 North Franklin street; David Dugan, .120 East Tabor road, and James Burk hart, 202 Fishers uvenue. Dugan, former president of tho Olney Improvement Association, said the only way to improve service on tbe Olney line was to provide more cars. Btirkhart. who now heads the hsro. ciation, said nt 10:20 o'clock this morn ing when he tried to get a car at Fifth street and Olney avenue nine cars were stalled at that point. He laid the blame on the facilities there for transferring Cn tinned from race One European politics than idealistic Mr. Wilson. The upholding of Nitti probably means tbe cementing of thc Enclleh-French- Italian understanding and, if one could know all that is going on, Italy's ac ceptance of certain English nnd French plans with regard to the Near East. The keeping of the Turk in Constanti nople for religious reasons will require some readjustment of plans In Asia Minor. Nitti, relieved of anxiety re garding his own continuance in office, will look with a less bilious eye on these readjustments than he otherwise would. Tho present Adriatic incident exactly parallels, as far as It has gone, the left bank of the Rhine incident, the full in side story of which .Andre Tardieu has recently given to the French press. Italy started out demanding Fiume in perpetuity. France started out demand ing the Ithinc bank in perpetuity ns a means of defense. Mr. Wilson offered M. CIcmenceau thc Franco-American alliance aa an assurance of Fi'ume's safety. French Episode Paralleled Mr. Clemenceau felt that this was not enough in view of thc uncertainty of such an alliance being nccepted by the American senate. He kept on demand ing the Rhine valley in perpetuity. By this time Clemenceau'a fall came to be expected on thc ground that he was fail ing to obtain from the Peace Conference sufficient guarantcees of France's safety. .ur. idoyd licorge shifted to France s side on thc dispute nnd, to help Mr. Clemenceau politically, indicated his change in interviews given to thc French press. Mr. Wilson became angry nnd sent for the George Washington. But in the end a compromise was reached by which France got the Rhine valley for fifteen years with the possibility of exienaing mat occupation, and got the promise of the French alliance as well. As Europeans look at it, a mandate or any limited possession may be con verted into possession in full if the League of Nations proves ineffective. Now the French and British Govern ments have shifted from Wilann tn Nitti, paralleling Lloyd George's sen sational snuc to uiemenceau in the Rhine valley negotiations. This fact is made public through the French Gov ernment's allowing the substance of Mr. Wilson'B note and the allied reply to leak into the press.

"The true" doc trine, he said, is "the ideal of inter national working class solidarity," Mr. Hillquit reiterated his claim that nationalism and internationalism are not, however, incompatible. "True" patriotism, he explained in connection with the antiwar program adopted bv the party just after America entered the world conflict, consists "in making our country right at all times."

Clemenceau politically, Wilson Runs True to Form Mr. Wilson parallels his George Washington to Brest gesture by his present gesture regarding thc with drawal of the treaties. In the Rhine Valley incident Mr. Wilson in thc end yielded and com promised the issue so that France got virtually what she wanted, the possi bility of permanently making thc Rhine her line of defense, if tho world proved after all nc unregenerate old world, ad dicted incurably to war. In this case Mr. Wilson in not lit-oii, to yield. His prestige has been largely destroyed by his compromises at Paris. Ho is obstinate, sick and angry. More over it is easier to keep up a stiff front when you are 3000 miles away then when you are sitting at the same tabic wirn your opponents. But to allied Europe Mr. Wilson's re fusal to yield now is less important than it was a year ago. Politically they have nccompljsbed what they set out to accompnsn ana tney can stall" along through the rest of his term. If he should withdraw the treaty there would be a certain political dan ger to Lloyd George, for a large sec tion of British opinion still takes the League of Nations seriously. And An-glo-Amcricau relations are a tender sub ject iu Britain. But the prospects of the treaty in the Senate are so slight mm iu wiuiurawai would hardly seem abroad a dire catastrophe. And those pro'pects have been great ly damaged by thc Adriatic JncMnnt You catjnot make much of n fight for a treaty whose author says it may have to be withdrawn.
