RAILROAD BUSINESS BOOMING
Figures Show Number of Idle Cars
Less Than at Any Time In
Last Decade.

New York, N. Y.-Ffgures com
piled by the American Railway Asso-
citation show that on November 1 the
railways of the United States and
Canada had only 26,239 idle cars on
hand. This compares with 1929
month ago, and with 170,096 on No
Vember 1, 1914.
The most congested section of the
country for the present is the east
ern district-New York, Pennsylva-
mia and New England. Reports of
actual shortages in freight cars to-
tailed 26,62S, and it is probable that
these shortages were found mainly
in the ammunition making districts
The actual surplus OF idle cars re-
ported for November / was 52,S67
and substracting from this the re-
ported number of cars which could
have been utilized, the net surplus Of
26,239 is obtained.

TO ASK FOR LARGER NAVY
SENATOR STONE SEEKS MORE
STRENGTH ON WATER.
Warlike Equipment Should Be of
Sufficient Size to Allow
v. S. Offensive.

Washington, d. CT TO farther
than most advocates of national
preparedness, who say the nation
should be prepared to defend itself
against attack; / want this country
prepared to take the offensive when
it may be necessary" declared Sena-
tor Stone, Democrat, of Missouri,
chairman of the foreign relations com
mittee, who returned to the capital
for the sixty-fourth congress.
81 speak particularly for the navy"
the senator continued. I want a navy
powerful enough not only to defend
our coasts, but strong enough to go
out on the high seas, for there might
come time when offensive action
would be required. A navy strong
enough for offense is a mighty guar
antee against attack by other ma
tons"
Republicans in congress will be con-
suited by President Wilson on the ad-
ministration plans for national de-
tense before the opening of the COM
ing congress. In line with his an
nouncement in his Manhattan Club
speech in New York last week, the
president will appeal to men of all
parties for legislation to strengthen
the army and navy.
Officials took the view that the
president is hopeful that his plans will
receive the support of Republicans
and thus overcome the opposition OF
some Democrats, led by former Secre
tary Bryan.
The president has already received
messages from a number of Repub
licans outside of congress approving
his defense plans.
