BREAKING RECORDS

Every previous record of oper.
ating efficiency made by the rail.
roads in early part of any year
has been broken in 1929.
The average daily run and
service rendered by freight cars
has been increased, locomotive
runs and hourly speed have been
accelerated. fuel consumption is
less, and wages. with exception
of q single year during postwar
imitation, are highest in history.
Good railroad service is essen.
tial to prosperity in the United
States and is the life blood of
industry and agriculture.
At the present time any ship.
per can get any amount of rail
road service he needs, on short
notice, and for extremely low
cost. Car shortages, q great
problem of the past, are almost
unknown. Delays, with their
waste in money and time, are
infrequent.
Railroad earnings are still far
from adequate, but the record
made this year gives hope for
the future. We may even reach
q point where professional hypo
critics no longer feel it popular
to load obstructive taxes and
legislation on our transportation
arteries in hope of currying pub

SH0TTON HIGH MAN
AS PHILLIES' PILOT
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
II Burt Shotton remains with the
Phillies the specified time of his con-
tract, he will have been manager of the
club a longer period than any other
leader the Phillies have had In recent
times
Pat Moran, who plotted the Quakers
to the National League pennant in
1915. served the team four years. This
record was equaled by Art Fletcher, now
coach Of the New York Yankees. The
managerial careers Of others with the
team have been brief.
The club management feels that
Shotton has been making progress with
a team that has been hanging around
the basement of the National League
so many years. That is why he was
signed the other day to a three-year
contract ending with the season Of
1892.
Shotton came to the Phillies in
1927, succeeding "Stuffy" McInnis, for
mer member of Connie Mack's famous
infield of McInnis, Collins, Barry and
Baker.
He is from Amherst, Ohio. He be-
gan his big league career with the St
Louis Browns in 1909: was farmed out
in 1910. but was a regular on the st.
Louis Americans from 1911 to 1917.
Burt was with Washington in 1918 and
then went to the st. Louis Cardinals,
where he remained until he took up the
managership of the Syracuse Interna-
tional League team about three years
ago.
