(Special to the Banner.)
Atlanta, Ga., June 12.—The lurking
suspicion In the minds of the general
pjablic that the order of the United
States Railroad Administration In
creasing all freight rates an average
of SB per cent Is going to mean a great
Increase In the prices of all things
sold to the consumer—food stuffs,
clothing etc.—Is not, or shoulcK not
be, well founded. A responsible fed
eral authority makes the' statement
today that, after having made a care
ful study of the situation on its ap
plication of food stuffs, the effect of
the ordered increase in transportation
rates, on the ultimate user, is so cas
ual that It should make for little or
no change. He alto le of the opinion
that the public should be properly
warned against any such efforts; that
Is Increase In unreasonable degree by
dealers; and that distributors should
not be allowed to use the freight rate
order as an qxcuse for advancing
prices.
An Illustration of Just how little it
means, when applied, was given In
the matter of cotton, on which the
rate will be Increased one-fifth of one
cent per pound, or on shoes less than
one cent per pair, on sugar Just a frac
tion over one mill per pound, the in
crease in flouy in carloads Is about
8 cents per hundred pounds.
"The freight rate* effective July
25," says the authority quoted, ‘'rep
resent such a very Inflnltiamal part
of the price of foods and other arti
cles, which the consumer is required
to pay, that they are really almoat
negligible. It Is sate to aay that, aa
general proposition, the Increase In
the cost of transportation on food nr
tides, clothing, etc., as n result of the
government’s order will not exceed
an average of one mill per pound, and
probably will average even less.
"The consuming public must, of
course, pay this Increase in freight
charges, but If that la all they are
called upon tor—and It should be a)l
—they wui barely feel the effect at
all. It Is true, though, that In the
past any slight Incroase In fralght
rates. If n good deal of publicity has
been given to it, has offered an ex
cuse for enhetantlal Increases In
prices to the public, and this may be
attempted In the present Instance as
In the past Bnt, tha purchasing pub
lic should not accept any claim which
will be unde that the prices, particu
larly of food atuffs, have advanced on
account of Increased freight net."

MMEEIW ON SATULA AVENUE,

When a Parson’s
Justified in The
Use of Word Damn
(Special to the Banner.)
London, Jon# 12.—A famous bishop
has endorsed the use, by the Rev. Bam
Leland, a New York Methodist preach
er, of an exclamation rhyming with
his first name. Of course, the bishop
qualified hte endorsement. A. E.
Hungerford, leader of the Y. M. C. A
party of fifty-seven secretaries who
were on board the Owns* when that
vessel was torpedoed while nearing
England ,told the bishop about tha
Rev. Sam’e outburst Three minutes
after a British destroyer bad picked
up the survivor* of the Oronss th*
preacher approached Hungarferi and
iked;
"Can n man resign from the Y. M
C. A. service at a time like this—'
Hungerford wondered, amused. If
-he had overestimated the man.
'■—To enlist in the snnyT" conclud
ed Rev. Leland.
"Of course you may," replied Hun-
gerford. "There Is no higher doty or
better work anywhere than ns n fight
ing man In the army.”
"Damned if I don’t! exclaimed the
New Ycrk preacher.
When Hungerford told thia to a fa
mous English bishop, tha tatter pub
licly declared that not only was the
language Justified, but wan absolutely
necessary to meet the occasion Fall
ing to get Into the army. Rev. Leland
volunteered for transport work to bo
exposed constantly to U-boats and
The tent meetings being conducted
by Rev. E. H. Jennings and others
ended at the Baxter street location
Tuesday night, and the meetings are
now being held on Satuta avenue, near
the Normal School.
There were several conversions In
the meeting on Baxter street, and at
the closing service Tuesday evening
a number of persons testified to the
spiritual tfpllft they had received.
People of different denomlnatlpns
took part in the meeting, and some of
those converted will unite with other
than the Tabernacle church.
The services will continue at the
present location for tome days, with
a service each evening at 9:16. The
people generally ,of whatever faith,
ere Invited to attend and take part in
these meetings, whldh have no other
purpose than the salvstlon of souls
and the deepening of the spiritual
lives of those who are already Chris
tians.
Report Soon of Legislative Committee
Inquiring. Into Legality and Constitu
tionality of the State Appropriations
(Special to the Banner.)
Atlanta, June 12,—If the special
legislative committee which is inquir
ing Into the legality and constitu
tionality of appropriations made by
the etate legislature should file
report holding that Hon. Joe Hill
Hall’s position, that the approprta'
lions are unconstitutional in largo
meaaure, there will be n minority re
port taking the reverse position.
Mr. Hall has argued consistently
for n long time that all those appro
priations made, other than for the
payment of public debt, the running
of the government, for the common
schools and for pensions are not with
in the provisions of the constitution.
At the last session, when the legis
lature refused to pats a biennial ap
propriation bill, aa it had done there
tofore, there was much ado along the
tine of Mr. Hall's argument, and the
session closed with n resolution pro
viding for a special committee to in
vestigate the legality of all appropria
tions and report to the session this
year.
That coramlttte la composed of
Governor Dorsey, Attorney Oeneral
Walker, Superintendent M. L. Brit
tain, Senator George Carswell and
Hon. Joe Hit Hell. Ia the past aevaral
months the state institutions hare
been gone over, the departments out
side of the capital have been Investi
gated and finally those In the capital
have been put on the carpet Money
and expenses have been talked with
each of them —facta and figures have
been obtained.
The committee ta in eession today
again, going over some of the mu*
stuff which It has wu mutated,
bnt the impression ta it will be e
week or more before things are in
shape to compile the report. Whether
It will recommend a budget system
or not, members of th* committee
could not say today, though the fact
was cited that the governor. In his
message to the legislature heretofore
has strongly recommended such
system.
The committee. In Its Investigations
has found no official Idling, no Impro
per uses of the money appropriated
and. so tar as has developed, nothing
of n sensational nature at all. That
Its work will serve the legislature
with valuable and Interesting informa
tion 1s n foregone conclusion, but It
can not be eald to have been outside
of the lines of operation orthe house
and “senate committees every yen'
In the past, and ta more In the nature
of duplication If the same committee
activities are to be gone orer again
this year. There has been nothing to
Indicate that action when the session
meets will differ from the past.
The state departments and the
etate departments have been requir
ed to appear before this special com
mittee, and go over their finances
and needs. They haVe always In the
past been required to do the same
thing before the appropriations com
mittee of tbe house of representatives
and' nothing has yet happened to re
lieve them of that burden this year
—a burden only because they bave
once already done It. On the special
committee ta the chairman of the ap
propriations committee of tbo senate
end of tha house, but that Is no war-
runty that the other members ot
those committees will not want to o*
demand to hear from the same peopt»
and Institutions and departments the

Cholera Murbue.
This ta a very painful and dangerous
disease. In almost every neighborhood
someone has died from it before med
tdne could be obtained or a physician
summoned. The right way 1s to havo
a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic and
Diarrhoea Remedy In tbe boose so as
to be prepared tor 1L Mrs. Charles
Enyeart, Huntington, Ind-, writes:
"During the summer of 1911 'two of my
children were taken sick with chol
era murbus. I used Chamberlain's
Colic and Doarrhoea Remedy and It
gave them Immediate relief."
That the clergy of the United States
are assuming their share of work In
the war ta indicated by the official
figures of the Presbytery ot New York.
According to these figures, 49 per cent
of the pastors are engaged in active
war work and about 43 par cent of
these are In service abroad.
Sour Stomach.
This ta a mild form of Indigestion.
It ta usually brought on by eating too
rapidly or to much, or of food not
suited to your digestive organs. II
you will eat slowly, masticate yom-
food thoroughly, eat but little meat
and none at all for suppor, you will
more than likely avoid' the sour
stomach without taking any medi
cine whatever. When yof have «v.r
stomach take one ot Chamberlain's
Tablets to aid digestion.,
Talking about losing a whole nnd
perfectly good lunch hoar yesterday
when one o'clock came at noon, we
are reminded what a great many lit
tle things added together will make:
F'rlnstance, suppose ninety million
people—of meal-eating age—In the
United States should do without one
meal, that would feed an American
army of n million men for thirty days.
If the ninety millions wonld do with
out one- meal n day etch month—Just
that much nnd no more, with nobody
feeling the missed meal and many
actually bettered by th* omIHIon—
the saving would feed the aihny of &
million a* long as they needed feed
ing and as long aa th* ninety millions
denied themselves of that one feed
per month. That's a concrete example
of the wonderful results Ubtalnfth't
and obtained under the fboi control
rales.
Whooping Cough.
In this disease u Is .Important Out
tbe cough be kept loose and expectora
tion easy, which can be don* by glvlnf
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mrs. P.
H. Martin, Peru, Ind., writs*. "My two
daughters had whooping cough. 1 gave
them Chamberlain’s Ctjugh Remedy
and it worked like n charm."
