NEW RAILROAD SCHEME TO
INCREASE TRAFFIC

Chicago, Sept. 1.-The "See
American First" campaign conduct
ed by the railroads of the United
States is bringing results. Travel
over the western lines this year is
we'll above expectations. according
to J. H. Hiland, vice president
charge Of passenger traffic Of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and ST. Paul.
Mr.. Hiland asserts that the first
class travel over the ST. Paul line
to the Pacific Northwest, as well as
to the nearby resorts in northern
Wisconsin, has been good
"The fact that passenger earrings
on the ST. Paul and other western
lines show an increase for the fiscal
year just closed speaks we'll Of the
increased travel over the country"
said Mr.. Hiland. another notice
able feature is that the increased
travel is on the first-class tickets, as
there has not been so much Of the
colonist or second-ciass travel this
summer. This may be taken to
mean that Americans are learning
Of the scenic spots Of this continent
and are exhibiting desire to see
them.
