THE GLOBE
TUESDAY EVENING,
Ito discuss possibilities of closer af
i filiation and mutual helpfulness in
I the great reorganization work that
11 is before the Lutheran Church, if the
! conference is held. It is believed that
j it will be one of the most significant
! gatherings in the history of Prot
! | cstantism. It will represent a group
of more than 75,000,000 Protestants,
• more than half of the whole Prot
' estnnt membership powers in the
I world. This group heretofore has
I been largely limited to national or
-11 ganization and activity,
i The meeting of the council was
! called for the purpose of discussing
I the needs of the Lutheran Church ,ln
Europe, on the basis of the reports
|of the five commissioners just re
j turned from Europe.
; Dr. ,T. A. Morehead, president of
j Roanoke College and chairman of
1 the commission, presented the report
of the commissioners. He said that
. 1 Mr. Hoover was utterly wrong in his
I estimate of the food conditions in
I'Central Europe. The suffering in
Central Europe is great and it will
necessitate a great deal of help from
America to prevent millions of peo
ple from starving.
Dig (liangcs In Germany
Of the church situation in Ger
many, he said, that the old customs
of organization are existing, but that
radical changes are under way, and
that it will take years of organizing
before the church is finally estab
lished on a free basis and that the
! Lutheran Church in America will
I have to guide the Lutheran Church
I in Germany.
I The attitude of the present pollti
! cal parties is not hostile to the
church, owing to the condition of the
j central party with the socialists. But
! there is an indication that this coali-
I tion will not last, there may be a
I radical change in the political align- I
ment which will create great diffi
culties.
The commissioners to Europe
recommend that $5,000,000 be raised
by the Lutheran Church of America
within the next year, to meet the
needs of the Lutheran Church in
Europe: Among the needs are the
establishment of theological scml
| narles In such countries that are left
I without seminaries through the re
assignment of territory by the Peace
Conference. Churches must be re-
I built, where the war has destroyed
them. In Poland it is estimated that
| $10,000,000 of Lutheran Church
i property has been destroyed. Many
I pastors must be supported. Especi
| ally in the eastern countries, church
j life has been utterly deranged. Great
; groups of Lutherans are entirely
' without pastors. The pastors hav
! ing been killed by the revolution or
I driven out. Charitable agencies
must be supported whose Income has
been reduced beyond a point where
it can meet the situation.
To Return to Euro pi-
After considerable discussion the
National Lutheran Council decided
that the Lutheran's of America
should stand by the program of the
European commissioners and to con
tinue the work of reconstruction of
the church in Europe, as begun by
the commissioners. As the tlrst step
it was decided to raise at least $l,-
500,000 to meet the immediate need.
Dr. Morehead and M. J. Stoles, of
St. Paul, were requested to return as
quickly as possible to Europe to con
tinue the work. Prof. Stolee has
been for the better part of a year
in the service of the National Luth
eran Council in Europe. He return
ed in September to bring In person
the appeal for immediate relief to
the.Lutherans in Poland.
The relief committee appointed
for the relief in Poland reported
that at present more than 1,000
bales of clohing are on he waters,
that three warehouses in New York
are filled with additional clothing
that is being shipped as fast as
shipping space becomes available.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
TELLS HOW TO MAKE $50,000
A YEAR; IT'S EASY, TRY IT
Ixuulon, Dec. 23.—Most healthy
I men und women are potential earn
, era of f 10,000 a year, according to
F. Higham, member of I'arlia
; ment. Mr. Higham recently told
j members of the efficiency club how
I to earn this big Income.
1 "Ten thousand a year men never
I write asking for a position," he de
| clared. "The secret of how to ob
j tain large incomes Is to get others
I to work out your ideas, to have the
.courage of your convictions, to be
able to say 'yes' or 'no' on the instant
I and to stick to your decision. Men
i who can make up their own minds
and make up other people's minds
are so few that only these get £lO,-
000 a year or more In business."
Most men and women, he said,
wait for opportunity to knock at
the door and when it does they are
usually too tired to get up. Oppor
tunities are made. They rarely seek
one out. If people want to earn
£lO,OOO they make up their minds to
get it and let nothing stand in their
way. If it is worth having it is
worth fighting for.
Few £lO,OOO-a-year-men are really
happy men, said the speaker. They
have that terrible discontent that is
never satisfied. The man who thinks
he can earn £lO,OOO a year should
decide whether, he really wants it.
He will not get it if he does not
make up his mind, and one day,
when he gets it, he will probably re
gret it. A man should never envy
the successful, but emulate them.
He should show to his employers an
infinite capacity for taking pains
and be ready for any question or
emergency.
"Be careful of your personal ap
pearance," he proceeded. "Look
prosperous, act prosperous, be an
optimist. Pessimists never get far.
Be kind; that is a great virtue. Be
courteous. It is the cheapest thing
in the world and being so easy to do
most people don't do it. Never
break your word. The business
TRAIN STOPPING
MERE INCIDENT
Compensation Board Makes
an Unusual Ruling in Inter-
State Commerce Cases
The State Com
\\\ has upheld the de
f feree in Lower vs.
B22*HSyjt*Wl Beaver Co. case,
11 -fSMWraWmr that * hon a train
ffl** SI state commerce is
stopped and an ac
cident to an em
ploye occurs the fact that the train
was halted does not take It out jf
the inter-state commerce activity.
Under Federal decisions no compen
sation can be granted when an em
ploye is hurt while engaged in inter
state traffic. "The mere fact that
the train was halted for a time and
was not actually in motion Is imma
terial and it is also immaterial that
the injury was caused by something
foreign to the actual movement of
the train" says the decision, which
holds that "the whole transaction was
stamped as an inter-state activity."
In Lower vs. Reading, a Philadel
phia case, it is held that switching
Is also incidental to inter-state com
merce and that there can be no
award "for death or injury occur
ring in such an operation.
Because the claimant was dismiss
ed from his place, to which he had
been reassigned after being injured
and found able to work, for causes
other than inability to do the work
required the Board orders the com
pensation agreement ended and re
fuses to re-open the case. In Sip
pie vs. Lackawanna railroad. It is
stated that the claimant absented
himself from his post without leave
in working hours.
In Critchlow vs. Steen, Renfrew,
the Board awards the claimant, a
tool dresser, compensation to cover
half the difference between what he
earned before an accident and what
he is now making on a farm. In
Thomas vs. Lackawanna Railroad,
Scranton, it is held that the hus
band of the claimant died from apo
plexy and not from accident.
Suits against dealers selling flour
declared to have been bleached by
the use of chemicals have been ord
ered brought by State Dairy and
Food Commissioner James Foust as
the result of analyses made of flour
I by James A. Evans, of Erie, one of
the State chemists. Wholesale pur
chases of flour sold in Pennsylvania
have been made by General Agent
W. F. Hill, of Huntingdon, follow
ing complaints about flour and
charges that it is being whitened
by artificial means." Commissioner
Foust districted the State for the
purchase of samples and almost ev
ery brand and grade that is com
monly used was bought under Mr.
Hill's direction and analyses prom
ptly made. "There are two objec
tions to the sale of chemically
bleached flour, one being the decep
tion on the public and the other that
it exposes the consumer to risks,"
said Mr. Foust. "An interior grade
of flour is made to appear like the
better grade, so much so that it
takes chemical analysis to determine
the extent. If the average consumer
knew what chemicals were used
he would shun the danger. State
laws are very specific in regard
to use of such flours. Chemical
bleaching is as bad as embalming
food."
The Egan-Rogers Stool nncl Iron
Co., Chester, has filed notice of in
crease of stock from $lOO,OOO to
$111,300; Tate, Jones & Co., Pitts
burgh. debt, $100,000; G. C. Mur
phy Co., Pittsburgh, stock, $lOO,-
000 to $500,000; Vera Co., Washing
ton, stock, $16,200 to $50,000.
Fines of $lOO will be imposed upon
persons who kill beaver in Pennsyl
vania according to Btate Game Com
mission officials. The State is buy
ing over 150 beaver in Canada to re
establish the animals and there are
now colonies In three counties. The
others will be received during the
winter and preparations are being
made to distribute them where they
can be protected. Elk are now also
protected in Pennsylvania.
Owing to the high prices bid for
construction of sections of State
highway on which tenders were
opened last week, the State Highway
Department will likely reject sev
eral and ask new bids next year.
The question whether the Public
Service Commission has authority
to sit on objections to a new rate
declared to have been made as a
conservation measure was raised
before the Public Service Commis
sion yesterday l-n the protests of the
cities of Erie and Corry to the new
schedule of the Pennsylvania Gas
Co. The company's counsel claimed
that the advance in rates was In re-

Fisher Comments oil
the Fiduciaries
In his review of the business of
the State Banking Department for
1918, the year before he assumed of
fice, State Banking Commissioner
John S. Fisher has this to say übout
fiduciaries:
"One of the effects of the Federal
Law has been to lead a number of
the states, including our own Com
monwealth, to grant fiduciary pow
ers to State banks. Both National
and State banks possess only a lim
ited charter existence. I am firmly
convinced that no corporation
should act as a fiduciary unless it
possesses a perpetual charter. If
banks are to be permitted to con
tinue to exercise fiduciary powers,
they should be granted perpetual
charters. Otherwise there should
be restrictive legislation limiting the
appointment of fiduciaries to such
corporations as by their perpetual
existence are qualified to administer
trusts without the danger of having
their charters terminated by limi
tation.
"Another feature of this subject
which deserves attention arises
from the fact that, both by the Fed
eral Act and the State Law, the
power of this department over a Na
tional bank engaged in the fiduciary
business is limited to the 'assets so
employed. It is self-evident that
the responsibility of the fiduciary
necessarily depends upon its capital,
surplus and other assets. It there
fore follows that if the National
!v\ are to Permitted to invade
this field of business which, as the
supreme Court holds," is peculiarly
within State administrative control,
they should be required, as a con
dition precedent, to submit their en
tire business to the inspection of the
State authorities."
Food Prices Drop
Where the Committees
Keep Watch, It Is Said
Philadelphia. Dee. 23.—Federal
officials asert food costs have come
down in every state where fair-price
committees are actively at work. In
Maryland the food commissioner
has reported a reduction In the price
of 113 out of 118 food commodities,
and on Increase in only two, since
the campaign was started in August.
The decreases in Maryland ranged
from 2 to 33 per cent, officials here
assert.
They declare similar results have
been obtained in Ohio, New York
and other states Wordering on Penn
sylvania and cite these results as
illustrating what might be accomp
lished here with the co-operation of
local authorities.
In an interview Governor Sproul
made it clear he believed increased
production would solve the high cost
problem quicker than would govern
mental regulation and supervision.
"What we may look for in the
future depends on increased produc
tion and economy," he asserted.
"This may be said of the entire food
situation. If wo return to some of
the good old-fashioned ideas of
economy, we will quicken the re
turn of lower prices."
