STREET CAR RIDERS
INCREASE IN u. S.
Passenger Totals Larger Despite
Growth of Other Forms of
Transportation.

NEW YORK, July 11.--Street car
riders in the United States are in
creasing. despite enormous growth in
other forms of transportation, ac-
cording to Electric Railway Journal
Steady gains in totals OF passengers
in many cities have come in the face
of fare increases.
Tables and statistics quoted show
that 5,057, 7,490,715 passengers were
carried in 1910 in forty eight of the
largest urban centers of the United
States and that 7,179.51O.162 rode in
1920 Last year 7,715,148,223 paid
fares to street railways in the same
forty eight cities.
Increases in revenue car rides per
capita are shown for so per cent OF
the individual companies from 1910
to 1928, although there was slight
decline in revenue rides per capita
for the grand total from 1920 to
1928. This is shown to be due to the
development of other forms of trans
portation. The tables show that,
coincident with the increase in street
car riding registration of motor We
hicles jumped from 46S,500 in 1910
to 100000 in 1923.

INQUIRY ORDERED
ON BUTTER IMPORTS
In Spite of Present Duty Danish
Butter Competition Is Caus-
ing Alarm Here.

The Tariff Commission has ordered
an inquiry into the import rates on
butter, the ninth product of the farm
into which an investigation has been
undertaken. Complaints have been
filed by American producers that the
present rate of cents a pound is in
sufficient to meet Danish competition.
Early action on the complaint was
urged by Vice Chairman Culbertson,
who said he believed the study could
be completed and action taken this
year. The time required to comply
with all phases of the law governing
such Investigations must be at least
three months.
Imports of butter are shown by
Department of Commerce statistics TO
be maintaining a steadily upward
climb in the face of an S cents tax,
and this condition was said to have
been largely responsible for domestic
stores of butter almost double the
amount held year ago.
