A recommendation that the mem bership and powers of the Interstate Commerce .Commission be increased by Congress is contained in the annuai report of the commission made public today. The commission points out that the increased volume of its work makes relief imperative. It also ask power to delegate to subsidiary bod ies portions of its work, while re taining control thereof by the com mission, so work may be expedited Other important recommendations are: That there be appropriate and ade quate legislation upon the subject o:" control of railway capitalization. Tha-. the commission be given right of ac cess to enrriers' correspondence files That the use of steel cars in passen ger trains be required and that thi use in passenger ains of woodcr cars between or in tront of steel cars be prohibited. The work of physically valuing tin railroads is well under way, the com mission reported. By January 1. sur veys will have been completed or about 50.000 miles of track. A rat of 50.000 miles a year is expected, se ttle 250,000 miles of road will be fin ished in four years. This work is tabulated to date in the office of the commission. The country has beer divided into five districts and from 12 to 15 survey parties are at work ir each. No attempt to fix prices on the property suiveyed will be made until the commission collects more information on costs and prices. The work of valuing the telegraph and telephone lines also is well under way. In its report the Commissior nowhere suggests that the valuation work may be made the basis for gov ernment ownership.

ALBANY STATE BANK "Safety Plus Service" MISFITS An optimist will believe everything that duca nut refer to money matters. People need to think twice. Whether a matter should be left out of the newspapers is a matter for the ncwsj,aper to decide. Almost anything before a gussip- ping society. Some one says there is more non sense than common sense. It is a big thing to be able to keep one's mind made up after you have fixed it once. , A funny man says that push and pull are a hard couple to beat. We have found that out in going into the post office and coming out; but there it is pull fiist and push out. "Honesty is the best policy!" says a Medford man. "I know because 1 have tried both." When money gets to talking eon science often goes to sleep. All the conception some people have of the enjoyment of life is the spending of money. About the only time it is really true is just before nnsimas. Gee, if any of us could see oursel ves as others see us. our eyes Would hug out. Someone says friendship is the salt of love. Our experience is that it is mostly sawdust. If speech is free in this country there is no record of any married men having admitted it rienty to eat and nothing to do is one kind of prosperity.
