RAILROADS TO seek
FEDERAL REGULATION

Washington, Oct. 1S.-The abolition
of state control of railroads, with the
substitution Of federal incorporation,
will be advocated by railroad execu-
tives who are to appear before the
joint committee of the senate and
house that is to Investigate the SUBJ
ject on interstate agencies of trans
portation, according to Frank Trum-
bull, chairman of the railway execu-
tives' advisory committee.
In an address before the American
Association of Passenger Traffic Of
fcers Mr.. Trumbull said the railroads
were opposed to state regulation and
favored federal charters for railroads.
"Probably $10O,OO0,eOO," Mr. Trum-
bull said, lis going over the dam
every year as a result of the lack Of
coordination in our present methods
of handling this important problem
and our present system Of conflicting
regulation by the federal government
and the several states"

Motor Car Makes Lonely Trail

Motor Car Makes Lonely Trail
Through Minnesota Forests.
During the early part of the 10Th
century, when locomotives were intro
duced in Europe, one of the great rul-
ers determined that he personally
would lay out the first road A coun-
sci of engineers was summoned. The
Emperor called for two things-a map
of his dominion and measuring stick.
He placed the rule on the map and pro-
ceeded to draw straight lines from
city to city. The much astonished
gathering of engineers responded:
"But, your Majesty, that will be i'm
possible owing to the uneven lay Of the
land. Marshes and tremendous hills
will be encountered" To construct a
railway over such straight route
was deemed impossible. But the rail-
way was built just the same
A similar incident occurred recently
in the office of the Elgin Motor Car
Corporation at Chicago. Every auto
mobile manufacturer is racking his
brains in an c>de2vor to think up new
stunts that will show the exceptional
endurance qualities of his car, and it
was in this endeavor that the Elgin
people decided to make most unusual
run. A Typographical map of Minne-
sofa was consulted, with the result
that it was decided to command an
Elgin Six to make cross country run
through the wilds of northwestern
Minnesota. A pencil map was drawn
on the map from Little Falls to Stock
wood and return-a distance Of 400
miles.
At first the route was thought i'm
possible as we'll as impossible. New
ertheless a veteran driver was selected
to make the trip. The trail led
through some of the prettiest and
toughest portions of that big state.
After leaving Deer, Minnesota, the
route covered the beautiful Rush,
Star and Pelican Lake regions, just
south of the White Earth Indian res
creation.
The entire 400 miles run was made
with an average speed Of 29.4 miles
per hour, through creeks, gumbo mud
and over steep hills where no roads
were visible. Not an adjustment or
breakdown was recorded throughout
the entire run. Everybody was happy
and hungry when the six cylinders
purred their return way into the out
skirts Of Little Falls where sump-
tuous feed greeted their deserving
and empty stomachs. The Elgin is
sold by J. C. Whitcomb, Princeton.
