 Those who were aboard the ship and escaped with slight injuries :or the remainder Of their lives will be inclined 10 believe they were born under lucky stars that some charm or fate prevented more serious outcome when the plane dropped.

 The two railroad chictains un- quesionaoly were frank and sincere when they spoke about the New England lines, but consolidation elsewhere is another matter. The major systems are engaged in I ter rife struggle 10 "consolidate" the lines they want. Only the New York Central directly and the Pennsyl- ,anls indirectly have entered New England.
 Mir. Willard has built Up power tul and rich railroad which does not happen 10 have as easy access into New England as one of it's rivals, thus he IS opposed 10 consolidation in New England if f means that the said rival will do some Of the con- trolling. Eut there can be little doubt  that he .avors certain other consoli, datons. He is fully justified in this position. He IS primarily interested in the B X O. and is putting up ( wonderful battle for transportation business.
