TRUCKS HELD SAVING
IN RAIL CONSTRUCTION
Bridge and Building Association
Shows Advantage of Lorries
Over Work Trains.

Impressive savings resulting from the
substitution of motor trucks for work
trains in handling bridge and building
materials for railroads are described in
a report presented before the recent
convention of the American Railway
Bridge and Building Association in Bos-
ton.
Such substitution brings about direct
and indirect benefits to the railroads,
according to ]. s. Huntoon, assistant
bridge engineer for the Michigan Gen.
trail Railroad, who presented the report
as chairman of committee investigat-
ing the use of trucks for handling
bridge and building materials.
THE indirect benefits resulting from
such substitutions are the saving of
freight cars for revenue service" ac-
cording to the report. 1.-THE Chicago,
Milwaukee, st. Paul &c Pacific, with r.
trucks in service, saves SO revenue cars
daily; the Southern Pacific saves one
half of revenue car per day for each
truck in service; the Elgin, Joliet &
Eastern, with one truck, saves from one
to two cars per week.
1.-THE Southern Pacific. estimates that
trucks will save so per cent of the cost
of moving materials with motor car
or push car, and rs per cent Of the
expense of handling with work train.
The Akron, Canton & youngstown, with
one truck, saves 81 200 annually.
1.-THE Missouri Pacific shows saving
of 80 man-hours per day per truck as
compared with the delivery of the same
material with a push car or motor car
This time, computed at go cents per
hour, making a daily saving of $500.
1.-The first truck purchased by the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
saved enough in two months to pay for
the original investment and leave a
surplus to pay for gas and Oil. 1t is
estimated that each truck saves $1,000
annually.
"The Is trucks in service on the
Delaware, 'Lackawanna g. Western save
$4,000 per year."

troop of 700 soviet cavalrymen en-

hour conflict.

From Japanese sources came
other reports OF minor border clash

most daily for more than a week.
Even before these latest and more
serious invasions 1t was said China
