On the wane. Each year its annual meet
ing attracts less attention. and the ques-
ton of getting the members of the organi-
cation TO take some interest in ii is a press

on the condition with this organization the
Railroad Gazette, in its current issue, says:
The anomaly of the present situation in
this society is that the membership is rea-
SOnably large and the reaSury is all right
but those members who have anything to
say to the world seem to prefer to say it
through some other channel. Probably we
must take this state of things as one more
reminder that this country is very large;
that with the increasing variety of inter-
estS that presses everybody who tries to
keep abreast of the times men who wish to
do effective work in the world find that
they must j~udiciOuslY limit their range of

TO local associations, and it is not strange
If superintendentS follow their example.
And quite likely the members of the SUI
p"erintendents' society will find, as master
car builders and master mechanics have
found, that this apparent narrowing of the
field really broadens their knowledge; for
the increased frequency of communication
with the freer interchange of thought now
had through technical periodicals and club
meeting reports will probably much more
than compensate for the losses due to not
having q large annual meeting"

Little relief has been afforded the lead

of transporting facilities. In fact, the
situation on the whole is less satisfactory,

As this industry is considered the best
business barometer, present conditions and
future prospects are certainly most en-
couraging, for orders are abundant and
plants are charging their capacity in or

terial is purchased now for much struc-
tutral work in the spring, and additional
contracts are seeking acceptance. Rail-
way needs were never as pressing, every
