This may or may not mark an
enoch in railroad evolution in the
South, but the fact is worth passing
notice, because it means that instead
Of the expensive and cumbersome To-
comotives with their Unsuitable greed
for coal and all the dirt and work
that Accompanies their use, there will
be an automobile affair which
can,run on rails, get speed of from
so to SO miles per hour and ac-
complish everything that the great
moguls now accomplish and at a.
reduced cost.
The result of the 7. A. G. expert
ment in modern railroad transporta-
ton will be watched with keen inter
est as representing the very latest
in railroad development and as one
Of the grst steps oward elimination
Of coal and steam in the operation
Of our roads.
Already, in some sections of the

planted the steam engine with good
results and now comes gasoline to

Why Lloyd-George
Watches Exchange
BY f. A. WRAY


International News Service start
Corresponding
London, April 2&~-Iioyd George
has one great American interest. 1t
IS the American exchange values.
The Premier, according to his
most intimate friends, turns to the
financial page when he takes up
bis morning newspaper and looks at
the quotations for the English
pound sterling on the New York
stock Exchange.
Andrew Carnegie, the late steel
king, is primarily responsible for
the Premier's interest in Ameri-
can exchange, fer under the will
of Carnegie the British Prime Min
iSter receives an annuity OF 1000
pounds, but the annuity is in Ameri-
can dollars and therefore it's value
in british pounds fluctuates with
the exchange market.
In 1921 the Prime Minister re-
ceived nearly 5000 pounds by vir-
tue Of the Carnegie bequest, but
since the exchange has been rising
this annuity has been decreasing.
The Prime Minister is now faced
with the expense of building
new country home in Surrey and he
has also given orders TO real estate
jageats in London to keep a watch
full eye for him for a town house
lin London, against the day when
ne gives up his residence at Ten
Downing street.
Although the Premier and Dame
Margaret lead quiet life in Lon
don, nevertheless the expenses Of
official life eat heavily into the
salary which David Lloyd George
receives from the British Govern
ment, therefore the state of Ameri-
can exchange is question of prime
