Railroad Asks Right To

Railroad Asks Right To
ibandOn Line
The Maryland and Delaware Sea
coast Railroad is asking permission
of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to abandon its line which
runs from Lewes to East Denton
Md, distance of $3.50 miles.
This is a part of the Old Queer
Anne Railroad, built about 35 years
ago by some Baltimore capitalists
The original line ran from Queens
town to Lewes, afterwards extended
to Love Point and Centreville, Md
The road never was a paying prop
osition and at sale of the road
some years ago the Pennsylvania
Railroad purchased all Of the tracks
north of Denton and some New York
capitalists purchased the lower end
which they are now asking to be
abandoned, for want Of support.
Passenger traffic was abandoned
several years ago on the lower end
and a single freight train ran over
the road once daily, but there is lit
tie freight to be carried.
The tracks are hardly safe, both
the ties and rails are in a bad con-
ditiOn.
The station at Glendale and sew
eral other points have been closed
for some time. Mr.. Baker, the form
er agent. is now looking after the
tower work.
They employ but few men, but the
abandoning of the road will be mis-
sed by the few who have been in
their employ so long.
The coming of trucks seems to
have hurt the business of the rail-
roads everywhere. Not only short
lines but longer ones as well.
The people will learn, that they
can't get along without the rail-
roads and should support them
whenever possible. Both passenger
and freight traffic seems to be i'm
proving on the railroads. Let us
hope it will continue until they are
able to give to the people that mag
nificent service which they had be-
fore depression days came around.

PAR TY CONFERENCE IS
 HELD, ST. PAUL
Leaders of Eight States At. tend Meeting Is Up
 to Roosevelt

ST. PAUL, Minn., Dec. 10.- Third Party advocates, alert to political possibilities in 1886, met here Saturday to crystalize senti- ment of leaders from eight states to get behind a program of liberal legislation.
 Howard Williams, National Or ganizer of the Farmer Labor Par ty, and Thomas Amlie, of Wiscon- sin, the two leaders, said the sen timent at the meeting appeared to bs that the question of third Ma tional political party in 1886 de- pended on President Roosevelt whether he pointed to the right or the left.
 It was suggested that legislation be drafted by a conference to sup ply Williams with a unified pro- gram to which Third Party ad- herents in the eight states might rally to consolidate it's strength.
 The eight states represented at the meeting were Minnesota, Wis consin, Iowa, North and South Dakotas, Michigan, Kansas and Illinois.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 10.-Air- plane circles here were buzzing to- day with the rumor that Wiley Post, famous around d-the-world fli- CT and recent conqueror of the stratosphere with an airplane, will soon attempt six-hour flight from Los Angeles to New York.
 Standardization was given the ru- nor by the fact that Post was in California, supposedly visiting the Lockheed Airplane Company at Burbank
 The noted one-eyed flier, who recently attempted to break the worlds altitude record in test flight in the middle west, would make the speedy dash = which would cut the present record by about one -half-through the upper strata of air.
 Friction, it was explained, is too much in the lower, ordinary air lanes. However, sustained speeds of from $50 to 400 miles an hour are possible at levels which Post is believed to have reached recent

ALASKA R.R..lS BETTER, REPORT
 OF YEAR SHOWS
Operating Deficit Reduced by $7,8ll During
 Past l2 Months

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 1O.- Bette" the Alaska Rail- road.
 The improved financial condition of the government-owned and op- erated Alaska Railroad from Sew ard to Fairbanks was known to- day with the release here by the Secretary of Interiors office of the operating statement for the past year.
 The operating deficit for the rail- way was $178,973 for the past year, decrease in deficit of $7,811 over the year ending June 30, 1883.
 The improvement came in spite of a decrease of 3,937 tons in rail line tonnage from the previous year due to lower commercial coal shipments. The increase in revenue, the report explained, was caused by increased shipment of lumber, gasoline, oils and outbound fish.
 The total revenues for the year were given as $1,293,684, an in- crease of $77,856. Total expenses of the railway and river boats was 1,471 ,496, decrease in expenses of $21 ,588.
 Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes said, in releasing the report:
 "The railroad has continued its investigation of mineral resources in the Territory tributary to it's line and has aided projects that would contribute tonnage as well as those that affected the general welfare of the Territory"

Congression onal Members < from Pacific Northwest
 Map Out Program

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-For- ward strides in the development of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska will be urged by Congressional members from that area during the coming Congress and before Presi- dent Roosevelt.

 For Alaska
 Major projects include the estab- lishment of an Army Air Corps base in Alaska, construction of at least the Alaska portion of the proposed International Hig hw a from Seattle to Fairbanks via Brit ish Columbia and the Yukon; in stallation of radio beacons and direction finders along the North Pacific Coast from Seattle to Al aska and throughout the Territory to aid aerial navigation.

 Engineers estimated the Alaska portion of the highway will cost around two million dollars and a major Army Air Corps base ten million dollars, exclusive of flying equipment.
 Military Defenses
 Congressmen said they believed the program calling for construc- ton of extensive military defenses along the Washington and Oregon coasts, Aleutian Islands and main land of Alaska, will be placed be- fore Congress.

Many Nations Want to Take Issue Out of

GENEVA, Dec. 10.- Statesmen are today revamping plan expect ed to solve the Yugoslav-H Hungar- ian dispute.
 There are increased hopes Hun gary would accept the plan and appease Yugoslavia and prevent that nation from making any war like moves
 The plan is for Hungary to con- duct a rigid investigation into the assassination of King Alexander and punish those convicted.
 French Proposal
 The proposal was made by the French Foreign Minister, Laval, and has been accepted by Yugo- slavia in part. It is understood that Yugoslavia authorities have indicated that probably no inde- pendent measures may be taken against Hungary should the League of Nations Council rule in favor of Hungary.
 Full Investigation
 Yugoslavia however demands 2 full investigation of her charges against Hungary in connection with the Kings assassination, and at once
 The matter, however, is further complicated by the fact that sev- eral major European powers are understood to withdraw the mat ter from the hands of the Leagues Council and deal directly with Hungary rather than accept a mere "platonic" condemnation of Terrorism
 For Quick Action
 Bogoljub Yevtich, Yugoslavia' $ Foreign Minister, is being pressed hard by his government to force the issue and get concrete action, and he told the delegates to the League of Nations Council that any moderation will mistakenly be conceived to be weakness on the part of Yugoslavia."
 The Hungarian spokesman said Yugoslavia has threatened to act on her own" if Yugoslavia fails to receive satisfactory treatment from the League and the Council.
