INCOME EXPENSE RACE.
Run Practically Dead Heat on Rail-
roads for Month of May.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9-The monthly
report of the Bureau of Railway Eco
nomics for May, 1917, Just published, is
an interesting study of the race between
mounting gross incomes and mounting
expenses, labor material, and taxation.
As far as the month of May is con
cerncd, the two appear to have run
practically a dead heat, with the result
that the operating income a mile for
all steam roads throughout the United
States, after going down to slightly
less than 5000 in 1914. had been steadily
mounting in 1915, and 1916, remained
practically stationary for the past year
gaining only about s per mile, or IL
per cent, the rise being from $395 PEI
mile in 1916, to $500 per mile in 1917
Total operating revenues increased II
Ma 1917, over those of May. 1916
by S44727 ,367, but operating expenses
increased by $4l,272,3SS, and taxes by
a. 1913 ,J4S, leaving a net revenue in
crease of but l,l47,15 for all til,
railroads in the country.

PLAN WELCOME FOR
NEW ENGLAND MEN
Charlotte, N. c., Making Preparations
to Show Northern Soldiers
Southern Hospitality.

CHARLOTTE, n. c., Aug. o" Let
Macon and Greenville have their home
boys, Spartanburg its gay New Workers
but give us the Bostonians, the Hart
ford Grays, the Vermonters and the rest
of the New Englanders for they are
the best of all.
This is Charlotte, n. c., speaking and
the National Guardsmen from New
England who are fortunate enough to
be going to Uncle Sam new city near
Charlotte will find warm welcome
awaiting them, for the Chamber of
Commerce, the women S clubs and all
the organizations of the city are de
termlned that no community in the
South shall Guido them in hospitality
All the resources of this busy manu-
featuring center will be ready for the
boys from New England when they ar
| rive. The Y. NJ. c. A. with its swim
ming pool, the Masons and their splen-
didly equipped temple-one of the finest
in the South-thc Knights of Columbus
| and other societies will extend a hearty
welcome to their members in the camp.
Lakewood Park, with its many forms of
amusement and its hundred acres of
| opportunities for recreation is getting
ready to show the New Englanders that
| Revere Beach as an amusement park has
rival! The churches have already
| passed resolutions to do their part for
the soldiers. The splendid golf grounds
at the Country club, of which the city
is so proud, the parks and hotels all
will contribute to the pleasure of the
| men.
Charlotte is eagerly planning to show
| the North what Southern hospitality
means and after the huge massmeet
| ing called by the Chamber of Commerce
has materilized there will be no enc
to projects for making the soldiers fee
at home.
Best of all, however, the citizens viii
centralize their efforts in the establish
ment of a central committee which
aided by the worker sent by the PLAY
ground and Recreation Association o
America at the request of the War De
partment Commission on Training Cam,
Activities, will see to it that all the re
sources of the city are put at the dis
posal of the soldiers not spasmodically
but day after day as long as they ca
| use them.
Welcome to our city, will have
real meaning when Charlotte says it t
her New England guests.
