Objects to Arterial Highways.

Senator Dill's objection to the ar
terial highways was that a motorist
could not drive across the city with
out stopping ten or fifteen times. He
said he did not object to such re
strictions in congested sections, but
thought they should not extend to
other parts of the city.
The Senator from Washington then
criticized the automatic signal lights
IN front of the Capitol Building, as
serting he never saw congestion on
the Capitol plaza until the lights were
installed.
Discussing the question generally,
Senator Dill said the suggestion had
been made that the National Capital
should have a traffic code that would
be a model for the country and that
he thought officials were making too
many regulations in an effort to fol
low that suggestion.

one-way streets, the recently adopted
pedestrian regulation and the proposal
TO ban all might parking were the tar
gets of Senator Dill, Democrat. of
Washington in a speech in the Senate
yesterday on local traffic conditions.
Senators Dill and King both took
the position that the traffic law passed
by the last Congress has aggravated
Washington's problems.
Senator Fletcher of Florida defended
the traffic rules as they now exist, de-
claring that If the regulations now in
effect are necessary to prevent deaths
on the streets they are justified.
Il rather think" said Senator
Fletcher. the pedestrians have some
rights. and If there is no other way
of checking this slaughter of human
beings who are exercising their priv
ilege of using the highways than by
imposing all these regulations that
the Senator finds fault with. / think
the regulations are justified"

CAPPERSTRESSES
TRAFFIC PROBLEM
Senator Says Washington Is
Not Only City Confronted
by Difficulties.

While welcoming q free discussion
on traffic conditions in Washington,
Senator Arthur Capper, chairman of
the District committee, declared today
that he felt the local officials are max
ing a sincere and honest effort to i'm
prove the situation.
Referring to the debate in the SEN
ate yesterday on traffic regulations in
the District, Senator Capper said he
thought it was a good thing to have
an open discussion of the problem, but
that he wanted to call attention to
the fact that regulation of traffic has
become a serious problem In all cities
and is not a question peculiar to
Washington. The Senator pointed out
that most cities were laid out at d
time when no one conceived the ex-
tent to which automobiles would come
into use, and that the rapid increase
In the number of cars has made traffic
the foremost municipal problem in all
localities.
Il think it is recognized that there
are some weak spots in the traffic law
as enacted at the last Congress, and |
think we should endeavor to correct
those weaknesses at this session, y

Bills on Subject Pending.

There are bills pending in the Sen
ate and House to amend the traffic law
to cover matters that were not covered
by the original act. and Senator Cap
per said today that the District com
mittee undoubtedly would hold hear
ings soon on the bills. at which time
ne said, the committee would welcome
the views of persons who are familiar
with the problem.
Referring to the reference in yester
days debate to the use of automatic
signal lights in front of the Capitol
building, Senator Capper said it may
be that there are some particular loca-
lions where these signals will not work
to advantage. but he was Of the i'm
preston that automatic traffic signals
had been rather generally adopted
throughout the United States as
means of traffic control.

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
By GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Net Railroad Income Problem.

While the monthly earning state
ment of a railroad, as it is reported to
the Interstate Commerce Commission
and published in the newspapers.
shows plainly the trend of gross and
net income, the Interpretation of these
figures is not always as simple as it
seems.
For instance, a roads net income
for a certain month this year may
show a striking improvement on that
of the same month a year ago, but the
comparison may be with an abnormal
period The apparent gain may be
simply making up what had been lost
a year ago. Similarly a falling off
in net income this year from that
of year ago may only mean a re-
turn to normal because the road had
operated under unusually favorable
conditions II months prior.
comparison with the preceding
month instead of with that of year
ago is often illumination. but here the
seasonal trend of earnings enters into
the problem. Traffic for the Northern
roads is generally low in volume dur
ing the Winter months and high in
the Autumn. Each road has indi-
vidual peculiarities along this line.
Excessive snowfall makes for ad-
ditional expense of operation in the
cold months and so reduces net earn
ings. Strikes, floods. crop failures
all tend to cut down earnings during
the time they are reflected and must
be allowed for in reading the results
Much depends, too, on the amount
spent for maintenance. A drop in
net income may only signify that
large sums have been used to put the
property into shape for an expected
increase in business. Finally, too
much stress must not be placed upon
the results Of any one month. The
investor is concerned with operations
over q longer period than the specula-
tor. But continued and consistent
decline in earnings from month to
month demands investigation by the
investor as well as the speculator.
The advantage that railway securi-
ties have over industrials as a group
is that the danger signals are set
sooner and are more easy to read for
the railway than for the industrial.
