The Successful Farmer
Raises Bigger Crops

and cuts down costs by investment in
labor-saving machinery.
Good prices for the farmers crops en-
courage new investment. more production
and greater prosperity.
But the success of agriculture depends
on the growth of railroads-the modern
beasts of burden that haul the crops to
the world's markets.
The railroads-like the f~arms-increase
their output and cut down unit costs by
the constant investment of new capital.
With fair prices for the work they do,
the railroads are able to attract new capital
for expanding their facilities.
Rates high enough to yield a fair return
will insure railroad growth, and prevent
costly traffic congestion, which invariably
results in poorer service at higher cost.
National wealth can increase only as our
railroads grow.
Poor railroad service is dear at any
price. No growing country can long pay

America Depends on
Great Britain for
Charts Of Foreign Ports
BY international News Service

WASHINGTON. - The United
States Navy is absolutely dependent
upon the British admiralty for near
ly thirty per cent Of her sailing
charts, and entrance Of American
warships into European waters is
practically under the control of the
British government, Chief HYDE
grapher H. l.. Chandler asserted in
his annual report to the Secretary
of the Navy.
OF the. 4,544 charts used in navi-
eating American war vessels and mer-
chant ships in 1920 the navy fur
nished only 2,270. Seventy per cent
of the sea maps used in navigating
northern European waters came from
British sources.
Admiral Chandler recommended
the enlargement of the photographic
bureau to meet these needs and the
amendment Of existing laws prohibit
ing laws prohibiting the bureau from
supplying merchant ships with all
necessary sailing data. An appro-
priation of 100000 q year for i've
years, the admiral said, would be
sufficient for this
