WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-*lnto the plan to give Muscle Shoals at the earliest possible moment to the high-est-bidding power grabber has been thrown a farmer’s pitch-fork. The thrower is Sam H. Thompson, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation. Thompson, in a telegram to the Senate Committee on agriculture, urges that the word “lease” be stricken from the resolution now pending in Congress and that the proposed Muscle Shoals disposal committee be directed merely “to conduct negotiations and recommend legislation to secure operation of the nitrate and power properties.’ The telegram has caused a stir in Washington. Chester H. Gray, head of the federation's Washington office, admitted the change suggested by Thompson would be helpful to the

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

A campaign to add 1,000 men to the rolls 6t the Christian churches of Marion County was started Sunday afternoon at the Third Christian Church when several hundred men attended an inspiration service. Throughout the United States the Christian churches are seeking to obtain 100,000 new members by Easter. The Rev. Thomas W. Grafton, pastor, presided and the Rev. V. P. Brock, the Rev. William A. Shullenberger and the Rev. Benjamin L. Smith spoke. TO SCHOOL MEETING Graff and Others Will Attend National Education Conference. School Superintendent E. U. Graff and twenty-five other Indianapolis persons w.ill attend the midwinter meeting of the department of superintendence of the National Education Society at Washington, D. C., Feb. 21-26, it was announced today. Indiana school executives will make the trip in a special train. The first business session of the meeting will be Feb. 22. CROWN PRINCE AT DOORN Wilhelm Arrive* for Visit With Fornier Kaiser. Bu United Press DOORN, Holland, Feb.

Three-Quarters of a Century The Illinois Central System will be seventy-five years old this month. It was chartered as an Illinois railroad February 10, 1851. From a railroad comprising 705 V& miles of charter lines in only one state the Illinois Central has grown into a system which, including the Central of Georgia Railway, comprises 8,500 miles operating in fifteen States of the Middle West and the South. In addition, the system includes the Ocean Steamship Company, which operates a fleet of eight ships between Savannah, Ga., and New York and Boston. In 1856, the year the charter lines were completed, the railroad owned 83 locomotives, 52 passenger cars and 1,249 freight cars and represented an investment of around $26,000,000. At present the system owns 2,300 locomotives, 2,300 passenger ears and 79,000 freight cars and represents an investment in railway properties of more than $720,000,000. In 1925 its locomotives ran 64,000,000 miles, transporting 38,000,000 passengers and 79,000,000 tons of freight. The growth of the Illinois Central System has been closely linked with the growth of its territory. Ia the seventy years between the census dates of 1850 and 1920 the population of the fifteen States in which the system operates increased from 8,000,000 to 38,000,000, and their agricultural and industrial activities made even greater gains. Seventy-five years ago the Illinois Central was just coming into existence. Today it is in a position to look back over those years With the pride of accomplishment. But it is not the'policy of the Illinois Central to dwell overlong upon the past. The daring which brought the Illinois Central into being as the then longest railroad in the world has left it a heritage of constant progress which has maintained in it the spirit and vigor of youth. If we are to remain true to the tradition of our railroad, those of us who represent the Illinois Central System today must continue to look forward. The future growth of our railroad must be in keeping with the prbgress of our territory. We pledge all our resources toward meeting the increased requirements of the future with the most efficient, most courteous and most dependable transportation it is possible to provide. The Illinois Central System prides itself on the family spirit of its organization. That spirit is due in no small part to the fact that many ©£ its presentday officers and employes are sons and grandsons of those sturdy pioneers who helped build the railroad and operate it in its early days. The Illinois Central System also has held many of its patrons .to the third and fourth generation, and that partly accounts for the cherished ties of friendly sentiment that mark its relations with the public. We appreciate deeply the confidence of investors, the loyalty of employes and the friendship of patrons which have made possible the present: standing of the Illinois Central System. It is our hope that a continuation of these favorable conditions may lead to even greater accomplishment in the next three-quarters of a century. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. 0. H. MARKHAM, President, Illinois Central 3vstem. CHICAGO, February 1, 1926.
