marked progress in the methods of
handling shipments has been made
during the last ten years" said George
NJ. Graham. chairman of the traffic
planning and safety committee Of the
Rational Automobile Chamber of Com
merce, speaking before the traffic club
Of New York. The Traffic club is COM
posed of railroad men and shippers.
'sThe shift in population In our cities
from 40 per cent in 1900 to 51.4 per
cent in 1920 has called for a reorgan-
lzatfon of shipping facilities, with par
ticular need for big local terminal OPP
erations.
'The railmen In the face Of great
obstacles have been meeting this sit
nation effectively, Fortunately the de-
veIopment of the motor vehicle has
come about in tais period, providing
rapid transportation in the short-haul
local field. In 1914 the country was
absorbing $4,000 motor trucks a year.
and today about 100000 new trucks
are being purchased annually.
"This new development mean better
service for. the public and more profits
for the railroads which are engaging
IN truck operation. From the public
standpoint the carrying of goods
promptly from the railroad terminal
by motor truck means a great saving
of time. From the rail standpoint the
truck provides an economical means
Of carrying goods in less than carload
lots over short hauls."
Mr.. Graham also emphasized the
need on the part of all transportation
authorities to safeguard the public.
He pointed out that the motor world
is demanding the severest punishment
for reckless drivers and is seeking the
best methods Of traffic control.

Numerous TriviaIs Make
an Automobile Expensive

If you axle is even slightly out of
true it will soon wear out your tires
by the continual grinding action. wear
ing to the fabric in a very short time.
If you have had an accident of any
kind it will pay you to Nave your wheels
examined, to see If they are true.
Often the brakes are not properly
adjusted and one wheel stops the en-
tire load. If this is the case the tire
which is receiving the greatest strain
will soon be worn to the fabric. One
or two violent applications of the
brakes on rough ground will take sew
eral miles from the service of your
tires. See that the brakes are properly
adjusted so as to equally distribute the
strain on the tires and avoid sudden
stops and skidding around corners.
When on the road, never use your
brake unless absolutely necessary. The
throttle is made to control the engine.
There are many drivers who never
change their gasoline feed in going
down hills, but depend upon the brake
altogether. Such a procedure is the
worst of folly.
