NEW YORK, August 30.-Railroad
men all over the world are watching
anxiouslv for the developments re-
sulting from Inauguration by the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad of
bus service to transfer passengers
between the center of the hotel dls-
trict of New York and its Jersey city
terminal.
On September ! the agreement I'M
der which the Baltimore ana ONO
used the tunnels and terminal OF the
PENNSYLVANIA lines will expire. Alter

other public places for terminal pur-
poses Other carriers all over the
world which have paid hundreds OF
millions of dollars for expensive sta
tons are watching to see how the
new system will work.
Effect on Traffic.
In addition, transportation men IN
terested in railroad. electric road. bus
and truck transport are waiting TO
see what effect the scheme VIII nave
on traffic congestion and municipal
regulation of the parking OF pubic
or semi-public vehicles. Already such
regulation is the subject of bitter dis
cuxSon in Il score of American cities.
In Philadelphia the Pennsylvania
road proposes gradually to install a
system of StOre-door freight dlStflDu-
ton by the use of trucks. The Penn
sylvan and other roads are planning
diversified systems of passenger bus
routes over short suburban hauls. Ac-
cording to officials of the PennsHl-
Vania a reduction of 80 per cent in
loss and damage on package freight
will result from carriage by motor
truck.
It is said the system in conjunction
with rail service offers to shippers
complete transportation system using
motor trucks for terminal work at
either end and the rail lines for inter
vening haul. The Pennsylvania plans
to make the system optional with ship
pers but to charge the latter the cost
Of the service.
But New York and Philadelphia as
we'll as other cities already have their
streets crowded with trucks and husses
and this has aroused spirited opposi-
ton. especially against the busses
drawn up at the sidewalk awaiting
passengers.
Trolley Men Protest.
In Philadelphia opponents Of the
bus and truck systems assert at least
five buSSes have been allowed to stand
in line in a single block at one time
while electric cars are not permitted
to halt except under strict traffic regu-
lation~ The street ear men say they
pay heavy taxes while the busseS are
not charged for occupying valuable
street space.
This protest brought an order pro-
hibitinc more than one bus to stand
on one block at one time. The oper
alton of the new system by the Bal
timore and Ohio. will bring this ques
ton To a head in New York.
Another angle has been emphasized

as to the license fee which should
be charged motorized grocery stores.

run over a certain route each day IN
many cities. In Cleveland a license
fee was assessed for each unit oper-
ated by the Motorteria Stores Co.
The company contends its business
is different than that of the ice man.
Merchants who pay high store rents
have made protest in Detroit and
Boston against the operation of such
branch stores under a vendors license
and have invoked the operation OF
coming ordinances.

Recounting the efforts Of his
special cotton committee to aid
Southern producers. the President
said:
"As result of this cooperation
sufficient funds have been pledged to
finance the storage and carrying of
100000 bales of cotton. Whether
those who own the cotton are willing
to put a part of their stock into
this plan depends on themselves.
The Federal Government has CO.
operated in providing ample IA
cilities. No method of meeting the
situation would be adequate which
does not contemplate a reduction of
about one-third in the acreage for
the coming year. The responsibility
for making the plan effective lies
with those who own and finance cot
ton and cotton lands"
The Philippines. Mr., Coolidge said,
should not be turned back to the
people until they are both politic-
ally fitted for self government and
economically independent" but he
suggested that at no time would the
United States abandon completely
responsibility for their defense. He
suggested encouragement of the
movement for development of the
rubber and other resources of the
Islands, but only with the approval
of the Philippine people.
The prosperity of the country the
President reported as widespread and

the Republican and Democratic sides
but there was some agreement that

for the presidency.
The defeat of both Roosevelt and
Taft by Woodrow Wilson, the demo-
cratic nominee, took Mckinley down
to defeat in his home district and he
was out of congress- in 1913 and 1914.
He was again elected to the house,
however, and in 1921 was elected to
the Senate by few thousand votes
the votes Of women--over Col. Smith,
who finally defeated him in 1926.
Beside owning transportation lines,
Mckinley believed that he was the
greatest traveller in the United
States.
He had travelled 100000 miles in
twenty five years-more than a mil
lion miles of the total in nine years
including thirty trips across the At
lantic, three journeys around the
world, several voyages across the
Pacific ocean and to South America,
a dozen trips to Cuba and Panama,
and had visited every country in the
world except Russia and Turkey.
Senator Mckinley was born in
Petersburg, Ill, ON September 6, 1856,
the son OF a Presbyterian minister.
He worked on the farm and spent
two years at the University of IL
linoiS, of which he became a trustee
in 1902. At the age of %. after he had
gone into the banking and mortgage
loan business with an uncle, he be-
gan his public utilities career by
building a waterworks system in his
home city of Champaign.

Mass Production Proving the Key =

1t shall ever come, whom this eoulp
try may need to supplement ite

One Of the influences working
for American domination In for.
eign oil regions II the policy Of
standardizing American oil AelA
machinery and equipment. For
merly there was endless variety a
these mechanical devices. It was
an expensive and unsatisfactoryr~
system, or lack Of system. 30 .
few years ago the American Petro'
lsum Institute undertook standard
izing the specifications for this
kind Of equipment. Both the maxi
ers and users realized the advan-
tages of the move, and today many
manufacturers Of equipment in Eur
rope are licensed to follow the
American specifications, and even
advertise that they can furnish
machinery and supplies under A.
P. /. Specifications"
But despite their adoption OF
American specifications, the Euro
peans are at q disadvantage be.
cause Of the American system or
production in enormous Quanti-
ties. Having a huge American
market to supply, they turn out
their wares at prices which other
manufacturers have found difficult
to meet. The situation 10 curious
ly parallel to the production OF
iow-priced motor cars. Not long
ago q French motor manufacturer
visited this country, studied
American methods, and installed
in France q factory OF American
type capable Of turning out about
500 cars daily. His enterprise was
widely heralded as assuring him
such low production costs that he
would certainly have an enormous
advantage in the European mar.
kets.
But there was q hole IN the
Frenchman's skinner. When he
got his plant in operation. there
was not market for his 500 cars
daily. Such an establishment
must be run continuously and uni
formly in order to conserve the
benefits OF mass production; and
when the French factory, for want
Of sales, found this impossible, 1t
was Immediately in trouble. Yet
ten times as many cars were being
turned out from single American
factory, and readily sold.
It is the same with American OH
field machinery, which is rapidly
coming to be standard all over the
world. The collateral business OF
furnishing oil equipment il fast
growing into a dominance that IL
comparable to the supremacy
which the oil industry OF this
country holds throughout the
