JotnsM.l Fitzgerald, Former President of Western
 Maryland Road Delivers Address of Evening

the Mack Motor Truck Corpora tion, spoke Aon the topic ''The oual-, ity of Sacrifice" He said that each of the units of transportation may we'll sacrifice something in order that all the units may prosper. He outlined the rise of motor truck ing since 1920 and said that 1t had not forced it's way into the trans portation field but had fitted into a place where 1t was needed. He insisted that transportation costs must be lowered if the problem; Of distribution is to be solved. f6r at the present time one-half to three quarters of the cost of the, goods to the consumeJ is being paid to the carrier. MT Fenhef does not believe in strict regulation of the railroad. He emphasized the need of lifting the great tax burden from transportation conl- panies and the easing up on regu- lations of the railroads so that each could serve the public to the best of its ability.
 The main speaker of the eve ming was John M. Fitzgerald. for merly president of the Western Maryland railroad and now vices chairman of the public relations committee of the eastern railroads Discussing Facts of Modern Transportation" he urged the need for government regulation of mo- tor truck transportation and for fiexibility in regulation of both rail and truck carriers in order that the various units might serve the public at the lowest possible costs Competition between the rail- roads and the trucks istproving to be disastrous form of cempeti- ton because the railroads have built their own roads and have to pay taxes on thefn while the truck companies use the public highways on which they pay no taxes except their registration fees. lF
 Mir Fitzgerald explained the workings of the various railroad commissions and the growth of the interstate. commerce commission. The railroads must obey their com mands and regulate and publish their rates, while the uncontrolled motor service has no regulation and does not publish it's rates. The remedy for all this is a flexible regulation for both with each haul ing it's particular branch and type of freight so that the other will not maintain overburdening equip ment that is seldom used. At present, he said, the truckers are taking their pick of the small stuff and leaving the balance for which the railroads have to maintain full equipment. The railroads can best handle the long and, heavy hauIs while the trucks can best handle thes local and lighter hauls. Cooperation of the best for which each is suited and giving the pub lice a complete haul at set rates would be a benefit to both carriers and to the shipping public.

AIR RACE TESTS
PLANE TYPES

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. 2
GN.S0.-Three radically differ
ent types of American-built air
planes in the high-speed field will
prove their mettle before the Ma
tional Air Races wind up here in
q 1OO-mile grind for the Thomp-
son trophy and $4,000 in prizes
on Labor Day.
The three types are represented
by the fat, Stubby Gee Bee super
sportster flown by Major James
H. Doolittle, of st. Louis; the
clean-cut, comparatively thin We
dell-Williams model, flown by
James G. Haizlip, Doolittle's next
door neighbor in ST.. Louis, and
the radical gull-winged mono
plane built by Robert Hall, of
Springfield, Mass, codesigner with
the Granville brothers of the Gee
Bee.
Two of the three new planes
have already given an idea of
what may be expected of them.
Doolittle gunned his Gee Bee to a
new unofficial world speed record
for land planes yesterday when
he averaged 293.125 miles an
hour over the regulation four
laps of a straight three kiIo-
meter course. Although he failed
to repeat this average when try
ing for an official record yester-
day, he hit the phenomenal speed
of 3O2.106 miles an hour in one
dOwn-wind lap.
Haislip won the tough speed
and endurance grind embraced in
the Bendix croSs-country derby
and set a new transcontinental
record from Burbank, Calf, to
New York, of 10 hours and 20
minutes, in the Wedell-Williams
model. He averaged approx
mately $50 miles an hour.

JAPS PRESERVE
OPEN DOOR

TOKYO, Sept. 2 O.N.s).
Emperor Hirohito today author
lied the signing of a treaty be-
tween Japan and her puppet
Manchurian state Of Manchukuo,
to be drawn up about the middle
of this month and made effective
Immediately.
The treaty will provide that
Japan, and Japan only, will have
the right to maintain troops any
where in Manchuria, the foreign
office stated.
Formal recognition Of Man
chukuo probably will accompany
signing of the treaty.
The open door policy will be
maintained in Manchuria, giving
all nations equal trade opportun-
tiles, subject only to such reci-
procal agreements as may be
made between Manchukuo and
foreign powers.
One important clause of the
treaty will provide for defensive
alliance between Japan and her
protege state, thus throwing the
entire strength of Japan in sup
port of the young state in any
external difficulties she may
have.
