isfaction.
President Krauss stated that he had as
surances from one of the lines that the
sale of mileage books would be resumed at
any early date and that he had reason
to believe that similar action would be
taken by the other lines. President krauss
stated that as the travelling men feel kind
~ to all of the roads, they are in hopes
that the step viii be taken by all of the
lines at about the same time which will
enable the travelling men to suit their
