don't fit Cal at all.
These old-timers are loath to ad
nit that perhaps it is Coolidge's
very Indifference that gives him his
strength, yet a lot Of them are be-
ginning to get that "hunch" and to
ponder it very seriously. 1t isn't,
lor them, particularly appealing
natter for meditation, but they ad-
nit it appears an unacceptable fact.
Anyway, something appears to
them to be wrong when a. seeming
ly negligible personality catches the
public fancy and in the most passive
SORT of campaign has all the old
party regulars for Congress and
Senate hanging onto his coat tails.
There is not single state from
which the reports show the local
tickets adding strength to the Cool
idee cause. Instead state after
state reports Coolidge far out in
front, and voices the hope that his
majority may be sufficient to pull
across state and congressional cam
uidates by safe, othough narrow
squeak.
Of course the Davis and LaFol-
lette camps maintain that these
claims of Coolidge strength, parti-
cularly in view Of the admissions
of likely failure to win control OF
House and Senate, simply show the
administration leaders are whistllng
to keep up courage.

s. A. L. GROSS EARNINGS .
ESTABLISH NEW RECORD

The gross income Of the Sea-
board Air Line for November was
~, 756.S0S, the best it every re-
ported for that month, exceeding
$4,52O,049 last year, the previous
record. Surplus after charges OF
$225,24S was below $253,5s in o.
tober and $275,724 in November,
1928, but better than any other
months this year except February
and March. Total surplus after
charges Of $2,6O1, 430 UP to Decem.
Der showed earnings Of 1910 per
cent on the 5000, 900 adjustment
bonds. Judging from carloadings
which were 3 per cent above last
year for the first twenty-five days
of month, December may exceed 1928
when gross was $4,908, 449 and sur
plus after charges $459,61 Earn
ings for the year will probably show
about 1875 per cent on the adjust
ment bonds or $2.28 a share on the
$37 ,019,100 common stock.
Equipment rents in November
gave a debit for the first time in
five months. This debit Of $8S, 801
for October, along with increase in
taxes and uncollectTpIe railway reve-
nue. and decrease In other income
prevented the company showing as
good net result as in October al
though operating ratio was reduced
from 1910 per cent to TIA per cent.
Gross Of $48, 0sO, 499 for the eleven
months, gain Of $739,S3S over 1898,
indicates that 1924 viii be the best
gross year the road has ever had.
For the same period it's surplus
after charges Of $2,6O1 ,43O shows
an increase Of $1,O41 sos, or 66.7
per cent, over last year, and the
outlook is for a record year in this
respect. Operating ratio Of TIA
per cent was slightly below 1888
per cent last year but increase in
taxes and uncollectible railway reve-
nues made operating income over
SITE, 900 lower than in 1923. Con-
sequently the improved showing this
year has been due to a cut in equip
ment rents debit from $685., 026 to
$443, 406 and an increase in othen
income of S522,957.
