Sees Rail Service
Greatly Curtailed
If Sale is Allowed

Fairfax-Communities now SER
we'd by the Minneapolis and ST.
Louis railroad, which feel that
their service would not be great
ly altered should the proposed
sale and dismemberment of the
road be permitted to materialize,
face great disappointments, ac-
cording to F. X. Gage of Fairfax,
chairman of the NJ. and St. L. exc
cutive defense committee.
Mr.. Gage is now visiting many
NJ and St. L communities in the in
terests of his committee which
was recently formed to coordinate
opposition activities to the sale of
the road to group of competing
railroads.
almost every community would
be relegated to the status of a
branch line town if the NJ and St.
L is split up as the sale plan con-
templates" Mr.. Gage explained.
"Some would be on branches of al
ready existing branch lines.
even with the very reduced
service put into effect, few branch
lines have been operated at a pro-
fit in recent years. Many of them
have been abandoned"
Mr. Gage called attention to the
fact that the purchase plan con-
tains a provision whereby M and
St. l. trackage, now scheduled for
retention, would be dropped were
it's operation found to be unprofit-
able.
"The plan intimates that the
purchasers will find sections of
line not profitable" Mr.. Gage said.
consequently, not only the towns
on more than 500 miles of track
age which would be dropped under
the purchase scheme, face the
loss of service, but all communit-
les served by the M and st. L, be-
cause no one can determine where
the AK might fall.
"For some this would mean the
loss of all railroad service, death
blow to any community and fol
others, served by more than one
road, serious dislocation of ship
ping facilities"

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-A deep seated longing in the hearts of the average American to sail around the world alone was disclosed by William Albert Robinson.
