Acquisition of the 600-mile line serv- | ing the rich soft-coal flelds of Penn- sylvania brings their combined holding up to nearly 10 000 miles of roadway. Their roads have a total value of over | & billion dollars. Control of the road was secured by the Van Sweringens through purchase of 67 per cent of the stock from the investment banking houses of A. Iselin & Co. and Roosevelt & Sons. They also, by agreement with the former own- ers. offered to pay the same price, $100 a share, for the stoc of the minority stockholders. ‘Time limit on_ the offer was set at 3 p.m. December 10 Larger Consolidation in View.

It crosses the Erie, a Van Swer- ingen road, in several places, and has important terminal facilities at Pitts- burgh and docking facilities on Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. Rallroad interests look to the Van Sweringens to again make an effort to ! obtain the approval of the Interstate Commerce Commission for the proposed merger of their roads, already once de- nied. It is the general opinion ihat their roads would be merged into two systems, one including the Hocking Val- ley and the Chesapeake & Ohio, the other the Nickel Plate, the Erie and the B. R. & P. One of their lines, the Pere Marquette, has already been con- Solidated with the C. & O. The Van Sweringers, as individuals, are not amenable to the commission for the purchase of the stock of the B, R. & P.,| ‘but must secure that body’s permission to consolidate it with any of their oth- | er lines. et Alumni to Plan Campaign.

Because Jim is actually using some of it now!, He bought a car last year, bought it on his future— from General Motors. He paid one-third of its cost at first, and the balance within a year. (Three out of every four cars in this country are bought that way.) Jim Jones has bought furniture that way, too. (Nine out of every ten families in America buy furniture dn credit, and pay for it with installments.) Jim is buying a bond with installment payments, too. ‘And he buys his clothes the same way. Jim likes good clothes, and like most people he often hasn’t enough cash on hand for a new sui suit easily and conveniently. Jim and his family, we are proud to say, are some of our good customers. Since his credit is good with Gen- eral Motors for a car, with the department stores for furniture, with investment houses for bonds, we feel entirely safe in supplying him and his family with clothing—'on credit! And Jim is smart enough to buy clothes on his credit—and save money at the same time. GoLp TO R EalS 1315 F Street N.W. JULIAN t. So he pays for the 8 FIFTY-SI1X He makes only *3000 a year .. butis worth 112,290/ Jim has his own ideas of what he wants to wear— and pretty good ideas at that. This fall and winter, he prefers a two-button suit, with moderate peaked lapels, easy fitting; in blue, grey or one of the red browns; in cheviot, finished or unfinished worsted. He can get such a suit from us for from $22.50 to $45.00,—and save five to twenty dollars!—because we bought almost one hundred thousand of these suits at once. Our order was big enough to get the most correct design from London and New York, the finest fabrics and colors from English and American mills, the finest tailoring and workmanship, the quickest delivery and the very Jowest rock-bottom prices. And Jim gets every advan- tage that we get with fifty-six store buying power!: M. Jim is a tough customer, too. She knows style, and wants it—with value— at her prices. We must have style scouts abroad and in New York to keep up with her. The ablest and best makers of women’s wear come to our offices to com- pete for her business, give us their finest offerings, best values, lowest prices—because we buy for hundreds of thousands of Mrs. Jim’s at one time! She knows style, and knows we have it—three to six months ahead of other local stores. She shops all over town, so she ap- preciates our values! And she knows and appreciates the service and courtesy, the willingness to oblige, the pleasant surroundings and full fresh stocks in our stores. She is one of the best dressed women in town. ‘And above all, Jim and Mrs. Jim know that they can buy when and as they please, and pay for their bills conveniently—as they please. We like customers like these—have lots of them and appreciate more. If you are hard to satisfy, like Jimand Mrs. Jim, come in and get acquainted. Copyright, 19t8. The Julian Goldman Stores, Inc.
