TON MILEAGE HIGHER


 Freight trains on the New Ha. ven railroad are today being moved almost twice at far per day as was believed possible 15 years ago, the present high record. excluding stored serviceable freight cars, be- ing approximately 29 miles per car per day, which, when 1t is consid- cred that a freight car spends the larger portion of it's time being loaded and unloaded and in the classification yards, is exceedingly high. Although freight cars may be moved greater distances per day on the longer run railroads in the west, the New HAven's record is believed to be the highest for a railroad serving similar territory.
 The speed of freight operation at- tained on the New Haven today is even seven per cent greater than if 1890. Gross ton miles per freight train hour, the unit of performance which considerss both train load and average speed, has also reached a new high record of 24,563 on a yearly basis, which is an increase of Ia per, cent as compared with 1880. This is largely due to the in- crease in freight train speed.
 For all freight trains operated, the speed averaged is 13.9 miles per hour. While this and the speed of 29 miles per day per freight car may seem a snail's pace in com parison to 60 and 70 miles an hour in passenger service and to motor ing speeds of 45 and 50 miles per hour, the apparent slowness is due to the fact that freight cars are standing. still most of time. When freight trains of this modern day are actually en route, they whizz over the rails at a speed which ap- proximates that of passenger trains. The stops during loading and un- loading and in classification yards are the factors which bring the av- craze speed down. Speed enroute. however, has 50 offset the time consumed in stops that overnight delivery Is possible throughout the New Haven system

500 PER CENT JUMP
IN FEDERAL TAXES

In recent address, United States
Senator Felix Herbert Of Rhode Is
land, pointed out that a few years ago
tremendous hue and cry was heard
because the cost of the federal gov
eminent had reached $1,000 100000 a
year. Yet, at the last session of Con-
gress, appropriations made totaled
more than four billion dollars. In the
81 years between 1900 and the present,
the per capita cost of the federal gov
eminent increased from 1894 to
$32.96-about 500 per cent.
with never ending extension OF
the activities of government into
other fields than those originally con-
templated by the founders" said Sen
ator Herbert, these increased costs
are inevitable. Through the efforts
Of organized minorities, we are con-
stantly broadening the scope of our
operations, and naturally increasing
our COSTS"
In other words, those groups and
cliques which campaigned so strenu.
ously and successfully for government
operation of this and government
supervision of that, are now paying
the piper along with the rest of u
who were willing to let well enough
alone in the beginning. The hand o
