Decision on Question of Basis of
Claims by Halroads Against Gov.

der Six Months' Guarantee.
Washingon, Aug. G.-In a decision
-handed down today by the Interstate
conlnerce commission on the ques
tion of the basis of claims by the
railroads against the government for
labor costs in overation and mainte
nance for the six months? guarantee
period following government control,
it was held that only increased
wages and not "inelliciency. of la
bor" factors would determine such
claim19.
Under the ruling the roads niust
stand -any loss incident to alleged
unwillingness or inability of labor
to perform during the guarantee pe
rIod of private control as much
work as before the war.
Claims founded upon -alleged inef
fectiveless of labor (Iining the 'pe
rHod amouint to -"some tens of nill
lions of dollars," the decision saild.
The controversy centered on the
meaning of the words "cost of labor"
as they were tsved in the standard
contract bet.ween the goverint
and the railroads at the time the roads
were taken over (luring the war. The
director general of railroads Contend
ed that tie contract intended to guar
an tee .the rates of pay per unit for
rail road labor, while the carriens
argtied that the labor should be com.
putted in terms of the -accomplis'lment
of a given result, and beneo the words
included in their meaning "(ltality as
Well as wages of labor.'"
The contract language under dis
Pi111 follows:
"During the period of federal con
trol tile (ilrector general shall annual
ly, as nearly* as practicable. expend
and cl:1rge to rail Way oerating ex.

Presbyterhan C1hurches Show Member.
sitip Vain. Best Year's lieport.
Columbia, Aug. 7.'-'Presbyterians
particularly, and other denominations
generally, will be interested in the
fact that this state stands foutrth in
membership it the Southern Presby
terian church in the 15 states compiris
ing that organization and is outranked
by North Carolina, Virginia and Texas.
Probably no synod is better organized.
This and other interesting facts are
available in the minutes of the nicet
ing of the general assombly held re
cently in St. oi)s.
In South Carolina there are 32,911
members, a gain of 7,688 in ten years;
just about 30 per cent. There were
received into the church oil profes
sion of faith last year 1,401 persons
or about five to every 100 members.
The Sunday school enrollment was
26,555 or 80 to each 100 members, tle
largest ever reported.
The receipts for benevolent causes
amotunted to $456,781 or about $11.87
per caita. This Is well above the
average of the church as a whole.
Thie total gifts to all causes amount
ed to I1,0-49,183 or $31.8-1 per capita,
the largest amount ever contributed.
In 1911 they gave to all causes only
$12.11 per member.
The report shows that the year
just closed was the best the church
ever had. The m em bership increased
20,5-11 in the entie So outhlse rn i'res
byterian chtreh, iaking the total
now :397,0Wx. There were six per
sons received into the( chturch on pro
fession s of faith for every 11111dred
iinijber's of the ctlirelh, or a total of
2-1,3G9. Th- Sunday schlool; sho.-ved
