Election for Colby Echo
Staff This Afternoon
Two Out for EditOr-in-Chief

The annual election of officers for
the Colby Echo will take place this
afternoon in the college chapel at
100. The Echo Of the year 1922
has been the best weekly paper ever
published at Colby. Clyde E. Rus
sell has been editor ~ chief during
the past year. Uncer his direction
the paper has changed in form from
a small booklet to q regular siX-col-
umn. four-pagc sheet. Russell has
made the Echo a college newspaper
and the material used in the paper
was news of interest to all members
of Colby. All of the important Off
GERS that will be connected with the
Echo will be men who have done
work for the Echo this year, or who
have held minor offices on the staff.
Merton f. Laverty % of Westbrook
and George J. Odum of Gloucester
are candidates for editor-i in chief.
Each of these men have been associ-
ate editors of the Echo this year.
I.averty is a gifted writer of prose
and he has done much writing for all
of the college papers. Laverty,
among other accomplishments is an
orator and debater. Many times he
has appeared upon the platform of
the college chapel in prize speaking
! contests and debates. Laverty has
been associate editor of the Oracle,
the college yearbook, during the past
year and he will be candidate for
the position of editor-in chief of the
Oracle for next year.
George J. Odum is fully qualified
for the editorship of the Echo. He
has been a faithful worker on the
sta this year and much of the ma
terial in the paper was written by
him.
Leonard Mayo is the retiring bust
mess manager. Through his forts the
paper has gained in circulation and
financially the Echo has been a sue
cess for this year. John l.. DunStan
CT Portland and E. Stanley Kitchen of
Palermo are candidates for bsiness
manager.
The office of treasurer will go to
either Basil B. Ames of Skowhegan or
Stanley G. Estes of Palermo.
The advisory board of the Echo
dominates the men for their respec-
tive offices each year and the student
body votes upon the candidates.
Some of the officers stand as nomi-
/, mated by the advisory board. Among
the officers already nominated who
take office without any election are:
Associate editors, Joseph c. Smith of
Skowhegan; John P. Barnes Of Houl-
ton. and Mark L. Ames of Union; as
sistant editors. Alfred X. Chapman of

DETROIT. Mich, Dec. 3O.-CBy
L. P.) The municipality owned
street railway Of Detroit still in its
infancy, IS financially healthy and
rapidly developing into a tremen-
dous success, according TO latest
figures given out here.
Besides putting back into the
property a considerable amount Of
money in additions and betterments,
the city railway department, on De
cember 1. paid 100000 TO the De-
troit United Railway, applying on
the semi-annual payment that falls
due on June /, 1928. The depart
ment hopes TO pay another half mill
lion dollars shortly after the first of
the new year. BY making these
payments in advance OF the actual
date on which they fall due. the de-
partment saves a large amount OF
interest.
At the close Of five and one-half
months Of operation, the depart
ment had carried 2O4699,795 pas
senEers, made up OF 154,434,1SS
revenue passengers and 50,265.607

from transportation. The total
miles operated being 21,764S22,
which shows an average of 3S cents
per car mile with an expense of
$.2757 per car mile. Incorporating
income and miscellaneous revenue

received up 10 SS.SO9.47112, or

SHIPPING OUTLOOK NOT

NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-(By l. y.
S)-The shipping situation for 1923.
so far as the United States is con-
cerned, IS in grave doubt. Keen
foreign competition IS driving a
large proportion Of the privately
owned tonnage Of the country into
the coastal and the nearby trade,
where. for statutory or geographic
reasons, it IS protected against for
eign competition The burden of
maintaining our foreign trade route
falls therefore, entirely upon the
govsrnment-owned fleet Of the ship

Cash Reserve Established.
The department employs a very
unique method in establishing actual
funded reserves. The reserves are
not merely a book reserve, but the
actual amounts reserved each month
are drawn from the active cash ac-
counts in the banks and placed in
anotheT account from which the
payments are made as they fall due
This eliminates the possibility of
using the money for anything other
than the purpose it is intended for.
The properties OF the Detroit
United Railway i'm this city were
taken over by the city last May
Prior 10 this date the city had al
ready assumed control OF approx
mately 20 miles of the Detroit rail-
way known as the Day-to-Day lines
and under its own direction had
constructed approximately 81 miles
OF single track. With the taking
over of the remaining properties
there was placed under the man
agement Of the department 373
miles Of urban street railway, made
up entirely OF surface lines with
cars, car houses, shops. power
houses and the necessary appur-
tenances comprising a complete uni
fed street railway system.
Along with the control came addl-
tional fixed financial obligations. as
the remaining lines were purchased
under contractural agreement for
the total figure OF $19,S5O.OOO. with
a down payment required OF S2.770,-

that there should be 10 semi-annual
