AUTO VS.. TRAIN
Railroad Official Relates True Fact
How Motor Cars Effect Road
Passenger Traffic.

III you should publish any informa-
ton have given you. don't say who
gave IL to you?"
That was the closing remarks of a
well known railroad official who quite
frequently visits Wheeling, in talking
with an lntelligencer man this week
relative to the effect that the auto
has had on railroad traffic.
Here's part OF what the official
said. In the first place. the class OF
people who are auto owners is the
class who travels: 90 on long Jour
neys especially in summer to the sea.
sides, water places and summer re-
sorts. Years ago these people, all. OF
course. travelled by rail Today only
about 30 per cent of them patronize
the railroads. They now make long
tours by motor car. taking all mem
bers OF their families and luggage.
Roads In West Virginia. as well az all
over the country. have felt the effect
OF the auto more this summer than
ever before, because there are more
cars in operation and principally be-
cause every section of the country
Is improving its roads As the roads
become better, more extensive will be
long auto tours and less railroad
traffic.
And have noticed recently that
many statesmen are now using autos
to tour the country" added the
speaker" Only last week | saw two
men who are selling medical works
TO physicians had Travelled through
from New York, working along the
way. They used a well known. cheap.
but reliable make of a car. tell you
the autos are certainly cutting into
railroad traffic more every year
Eventually 1t will be only the poor
who will ride the trains.

MORE RECIPROCITY

The folder shows by fact and ag-
ures the imposition OF the laws Of
nearly every state in the Union
against car owner By the eXOrbiant
fees licenses and other taxes as
sessed against them. The principal
point brought out In the booklet is the
failure OF all the states to be recipro-
cal. that Is 10 say. that II one pays
his license fee In this state that he
cannot enter another state without
paying an additional fee. In some in
stances for his car and also for his
chauffeur license Another point
that Is brought out. that seems unjust.
Is that autos IN the greater part OF
the states are taxed as personal
property. The Nyman has no idea OF
