SHIPPING. SOLUTION
SEEN IN RAILROADS
Security Owners President
Offers Key to Problem
of Transportation.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. September IL
A plan for solving the transportation
problem by co-ordinating all transport
agencies of the country was outlined
Yesterday by Milton w. Harrison. presi-
dent of the National Security Owners
Association.
Addressing joint meeting Of the
Southern Traffic League and the Birm-
insham Traffic and Transportation
Club. Mr.. Harrison explained that his
plan would make the railroads the
frame work upon which to build the
most complete and varied transporta-
ton service, and would include high
way, waterway, airway and pipeline
transportation. He urged the public
to authorize the railroads to enter free.
" upon a fair basis into all forms OF
transportation.
Coordination Necessary.
"Permanent relief for the railroads
and maximum service for the shipping
and travelling public can come only
through complete coordination OF the
transportation agencies Of The country"
he said. The present system Of hap
hazard, unregulated and unfair COM
various forms of water transport, pro-
tected and subsidized by the Govern
ment to the injury Of established rail
lines. is outmoded and unworthy OF the
progressive character Of American busi-
ness enterprise.
THE public is entitled to the benefit
OF all real progress in transportation.
whether it takes the form of greater
convenience or lower costs or both.
Railroads Are Backbone.
But every one will agree that the
railroads are today and will continue
to be the backbone of our transporta-
ton system. The public, in its own
interests, should authorize the railroads
to enter freely and upon fair basis
into all forms Of transportation. / do
not mean they should be permitted to
exercise a monopoly over the field, all
the railroads ask is that they be given
an equal opportunity with all others to
operate any or all the various forms OF
transportation"
The National Security Owners Asso-
citation is supported primarily by savings
banks and insurance companies, which
are large holders Of railroad securities.

COMPILATION OF LAWS IS URGED
 BY LEGISLATOR
Harry Donnelley of Flat
 Will Try to Assemble All Enactments

FAIRBANKS, Alaska. - Harry Dcnnelley, of Flat, Republican rep reGentatiye-elect to the Territor- ial Legislature, plans on making a trip back to his former home in Philadelphia prior to the opening of the legislature in March, accord ing to the News-Miner of Fair banks, where MT. Donnelley stayed for few days recently, on his way to the States.
 It is MT. Donnelley's belief that something ought to ba done about compiling the laws of the Territory At present the history of law may be traced only by separate perusal of each of the volumes of session laws. Compiling these into one vol ume, with provisions for future compilations at sta te d intervals, would be very helpful, MT Donnel- ley said
 Killed in Senate If no other legislator advances a bill looking to that end MT. Don relley intends to do so At the last Legislature, of which he was
 member, such measure was passed by the House but was killed in the Senate.
 The Iditarod section experienced a fair season last year from a min- ing standpoint, declared MT. Don- nelley. An ample supply of water throughout the summer was a great boon to the smaller operators and they did exceptionally well but the .dredges were not so successful. Two gold boats operated there, one owned by the Riley Investment Company, of which MT. Donnelley is manager, and the other by the North American Dredging Com pany. Both are on Otter Creek.
 Beaton Goes to States
 John Beaton, one of the discover CTS of the Iditarod camp, who is in- terested in the North American concern, and his wife and boy have gone to the States.
 Flat is quiet this winter, said MT. Donnelley. The camp normally does not look for much activity during the closed season, as it is primarily mining camp and fur is not abundant there. M

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-Harnessing law of nature as universal as gravitation is expected to keep the new Italian Lloyd Sabaudo liner Conte di Savoia from rolling.
 Three Sperry gyroscopes will be the harness, the first ever used o4l an Atlantic liner.
 The law is one which alike holds up the small boys spinning top and all the whirling planets, Sci, entists call it the law of preces- sion. &
 It is the power of spinning body to resist strongly any at tempt to prevent it from changing the plane of it's rotation.
 Just at her water line, well for ward, the Conte di Savoia will have three 10O-ton gyros. Spinning tops they are, geared to tilt fore and aft-but strangely enough not to tilt from side to side.
 It is a peculiarity of procession that if the tilt is fore and aft, the resistance exerted by the gyro is from side to side. Thus the gyro can be applied to counteracting the roll of waves.
 Less than one quarter of a sec ond after the roll starts, that IS before human senses can detect the roll, these gyros have caught the beginning of the tilt and are in motion.
 Herein largely lies their effective ness-they catch the roll early, they operate on the principal of preven- tion.
 Mitigation of seasickness is only one of varied yro-stabilizer uses, It saves power, 20 degree roll figuring equal to 20 per cent loss of power.
 Gyro-stabilized yachts of wealthy sportsmen, already in extensive use, have driven through heavy storms without loss of speed, instead of having to heave to-,
 In calm gyros have been used to roll a vessel artificially, as an aid to getting them off mud banks.
 In rescue at sea a stabilized boat is an unusual floating break water shelter for the wrecked ves- Sel

A NEW STAR TWINKLEs

It was after one when Aileen and Vivienne returned to the apart ment Early enough, ordinarily, but to Aileen the evening had been in- terminable If ever she acted, or ever expected to, she certainly had done so during the last few hours. Klein and Jimmy had been observ- ing her, approvingly, she believed.
 What Klein might have said to Dwight Charming before the artist joined them Aileen did not know. Apparently both thought it wiser to ignore the article in the current Tattle Tales It was not so much the story itself Vivienne's calm acceptance and her amusement over it were far more serious.
 Vivienne crossed to the table to get cigarette. Beside the box was the opened copy of Tattle Tales Sitting down, she reached for It and reread the paragraphs that Aileen knew by heart. Then, with an air of bravado, she calmly tore out the page.
 Did you ever see anything so de- hciously absurd?" Something in Aileens expression caused a quick change in her own What on earth's the matter with you?' she demanded impatiently Ever since I showed you this you've been act ing like clam"
 You didn't expect me to like 1t, I hope? How you can think it fun ny, I can't understand.
 Well, isn't it?' Vivienne looked up, honestly surprised.
 Not to me- said Aileen. Vivi- enne, don't you see the position this puts both of us in?"
 You mean that you take it seri- cusly? An, Aileenl How can you?' Vivienne was laughing. Everybody I talked with tonight got kick cut of it."

 Why not? Aren't I entitled to a little publicity? If it helps you, ]. ought to help me"
 Help you?" Aileen gasped How can it help either of us?"

 H0LDUP VICTIM
Local Youth and Compan- ion Are Robbed of
 Money, Valuables

Clarence Dunn, son of MT. and Mrs. John H. Dunn of this city, fell victim to holdup men in Seattle recently, according to word just received from him. He lost a few dollars and a watch, and a girl companion was robbed of a small sum of money, while she saved a diamond ring and Dunn successfully concealed wallet containing some currency.
 The robbery occurred on the out skirts of the city as Dunn and his companion were returning from an auto ride. They had driven out the Everett highway and while crossing over to the Bothel road to return to town, were stopped. At the point of revolver Dunn was first forced out of his car, but slipped his poeketbook behind the seat cushion as he emerged. While the. robbers went through Dunns pockets, the girl toox a diamond ring off one of her fingers and put 1t in her mouth. Some loose change in her purse was the extent of her loss.
 The watch lost by Dunn was a gift from his parents on the occa- sion of his graduation from the local High School. After the hold Up, the robbers took the car keys and told Dunn he would find them down the road a short distance While he was searching for them with a flashlight two motorcycle policemen appeared and immediate ly began to look for the bandits but success.
