Even the signboards along the right

The road has double track, auto

control, switch yards, tunnels,
trestles, round house, turntable,
and hrea-color signal lights. It's a
echoolboy's dream of Christmas
morning
Joseph l.. Smith, 33, club vice
president, said the miniature line
is built ON a scale of a inch to
the foot. Power is supplied by
third rail which carries 10 volts
of alternating current. By switch
ing to direct current the engineer
can reverse his train. Smith said
the trains have a scale speed OF
100 miles per hour.
From six sets of control buttons
six trains may be operated on the
tracks at once. The automatic
block control eliminates danger of
collisions. There are 67 switches
and five crossings III the system,
Smith said.
A telephone system connects the
yard master, the dispatcher, the
engineers, and other officials who
cooperate in operation of the road.
Financed by dues of 81 a month
and by 10 cent admission fees to
the public, the road has cost its
members $500 BY the time it is
completed next December it will
have a replacement value of $1,000,
club officers say.
Officers other than Smith are

ufactureS model railroad trains;
John weston, secretary, who is a
payroll master; and Wesley Graham.
treasurer, a relief worker.
A system of seniority rights baS-

by members in contracting the road
is used in determining who shall
have the choice jobs when the road
is in full operation at the Thursday

in 12 major departments and three
managing units, all to be more di-
rectly under the control OF the
President.
How such a plan would work, the
public can only guess. The bust
ness of the government has develop
ed over many years in hit or miss
way. 1t is like house to which sue
cessiye occupants have made many
separate additions without any re-
gard as to how the whole structure
would look. Some reorganization is
called for.
The people will be disappointed to
learn that the proposed plans are
expectea to save only about one per
cent Of present costs. Considering
what an overgrown mess the whole
thing is, many will say that a clean
cut system should save more money
than that.
