Washington, Nov. 17.-Though
it is a bit early political sages here
are spoculating on the effects of
the 1922 elections on the 1924 crop
Of presidential possibilities.
Budding presidential aspirants
in both parties saw their hopes 60
glimmering as the ballots were
counted, and others, not so prom
inent, hoped into the limelight as
a result.
President Harding has given out
no indication of his decision to run
again or not to run and this gives
the spectators on the G. O. p.
side an unlimited field. Harding
probably could have the nomina-
ton again for the asking. But in
the event that he decides not to
run again there win be no dearth
Of candidates.
With the defeat OF former Sfna-
tor Albert jeremiah Beveridgc
by his democratic opponent. for
mer Governor Ralston, the Bull
Mooser fades out of the presiden-
tial picture and Ralston takes his
place on the democratic side. Raj
ston is an Ohioan by birth,
Likewise the overwhelming de-
feat of Governor Miller, running
for reelection in New York, by
former Governor Al Smith elimi
mates the former and stamps the
latter as one of the most promis-
ing candidates from the democratic
point of view.

Nations Railroads,
BUSINESS CONDITIONS
HAVE BEEN REVERSED
From Extreme DuIInBSS in
1921 We Have Rapidly
Advanced Until Traffic Is
Close to Record Levels,

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE railroads
OF the country in the closing quar-
ter of the present year face an ar
ray of unusual and in some re-
spects unprecedented difficulties,
Samuel Rea, president of the Penn
sylvania railroad system, tonight
told members of the commercial
club of Chicago. Constructive leg
lslatlon and the cooperation Of
the public will alleviate some of
the difficulties, he asserted.
Since the close of 1921, there
has been a reversal of business con-
ditions in America" Mr.. Rea said.
and with all the hard knocks it
IS Tor the better. From extreme
dullness we have rapidly advanced
TO a point where railroad traffic
Is close to record levels"
Serious congestion of the roads
was referred to by the speaker.
who said that the immediate
causes included the resumption of
coal mining, the flood of general
business; movement OF crops, and
the aftermath of DEVELOPMENTS
subsequent to the shopmen's strike.
Bad equipment following the re-
lease of the railroads by the fed
eral government, the depression of
1921 and the shopmen's strike were
given by President Rea as handl-
caps under which the roads Ia
bored in their efforts to serve the
public.
Slow government settlements
after the period of government
control also proved hurtful, he
said, adding that In fairness, |
must say that the present officers
of the government and the inter-
state commerce commission are
doing what they can do to hasten
settlements which, even now, would
be OF constructive help"
AS a remedy, Mr.. Rea urged
lawmakers ito stop tinkering with
the railroads. as they will not be
saved by legislation, but by free
dom to manage their properties
under minimum reasonable regula-
tions and to earn a fair return"
Government ownership and OPP
Grafton was a ruinous experiment,
he asserted.
In concluding, he said that
definite constructive transporta-
tion policy is require3. I'VE must
get more sound thinking prudence
in legislation and action, public
cooperation, as well as personal
initiative to remedy this situation"
