million in 1910 and 149 million
lin 1854.
The Capital Transit's 1854
operating revenue is given as
$26.6 million in 1854, while that
for st. Louis was $25 million.
The District population served
is 1925 million; in st. Louis il is
IL million.
The index figures show a
greater increase in wages ard
other expenses in Washington
than in st. Louis. But the same
scale shows a much greater in
crease in taxes in St. Louis.
The operating income figures
after taxes but before interest
shows st. Louis 81 million cut
stripping Washington $847, 900.
With the 1910 figure equalling
100 on the index, the Washing
ton index figure was 56.2 for
1910, the st. Louis figure was
237.1 and the national figure
was SO.
Describes Extra Services
Mr.. Baine told of various
services his company supplies.
They include express buses at
extra fare, a loop" bus service
at cut fare and deals with
downtown merchants. But what
interested his audience most was
the "ride-park' service. Mo-
torists park free on the munich
pal opera parking lot 5 miles
from downtown. An express
bus then carries them between
the lot and downtown for a 35-
cent round trip.
When the service started in
November, 1858, he said, there
were only about $50 cars parked
there. The number is now about
900 and edging upward to the
Il ,000-car capacity. The bus serv-
ice is furnished with a five-min-
ute headway at the peak hours
and a 15-minute interval at
other times.
The situation is somewhat the
same as Washington's Carter
Baron Amphitheater parking lot.
Mr.. Baine stressed that it takes
time to establish such a service
and win acceptance for it.

CHICAGO, June 90. The
head of the St. Louis transit
company told a meeting here
yesterday how his company
seeks aggressively to serve the
transit rider, and figures indi-
cate his company is doing better
than Washington Capital
Transit Co.
The two transit concerns are
comparable as to size. But
whereas Capital Transit has lost
IL per cent of its revenue pass
engers, comparing 1854 figures
with 1940s, the st. Louis COM
pany has lost 3.5 per cent. The
decline nationally has been 6 per
cent.
John c. Baine, president of
the st. Louis Public Service Co.,
the transit concern there, ad-
dressed a seminar on what is
called frankly the Nations
transit crisis. The seminar is
being held by the Public Admin
istration Clearing House.
Experts are discussing transit
problems with about 25 newsmen
from II cities.
Public Ownership Not Answer
The first speaker, Donald C,
Hyde, president of the American
Transit Association, indicated
the answer does not lie in public
ownership-a way out which has
been suggested for Washington,
He said traffic and other basic
problems are the same for both
privately and publicly owned
systems. He is general manager
of the Cleveland transit system,
which is publicly owned and
which is regarded as a well-run
outfit. OF the approximately
$500 transit systems in the
country, he said, only 35 or 40
are publicly owned.
1T is significant" he added,
"that there is no rush by cities
to buy the transit properties
serving them. Even in Mil
waukee, where Daniel w. Hoan,
Socialist, was Mayor, there has
been no rush to buy" Vi
Newsmen have been provided
with a thick book of Transit
Facts published by the Public
Administration Clearing House.

ton co-operated.

base year Of 1910. This is re-
garded as a normal" year before
World War II. Nationally. pas
senger traffic volume which was
10.5 billion in 1910, went to 1871
billion in 1916. Then it declined
to 9.8 billion in 1854.
On an index scale, with 1910
being 100, this meant an advance
to 1872 and then a decline to "a.
Mr.. Hyde discussed figures
showing how the industry is
caught between higher wages and
other operating costs, declining
patronage and tagging fare ad-
justments.
Mr.. Baine explained that the
fare in st. Louis is 20 cents.
There is 75-cent weekly per-
init allowing rides for 10 cents,
as in Washington. With lower
fares for school children and
certain other rates, he figured the
average fare at II cents.
The fact book gives Washing
tons revenue passengers in 1910
as numbering 1868 million, as
against 1857 million in 1854.
The st. Louis figures are 154.6

This is inherited in that our

often noticed that in certain

to have large hips, or a short
waistline, or thick ankles, or

So. one must recognize these

Even in the case of over

The letter from which I am

rather so universal in the ex-
perience of women that it will
be helpful to many of you.
IT am not one of those
women who need to lose
weight. I am even a bit on
the slim side but I need badly
to redistribute the weight I
have. I am way out Of pro-
portion. All of my weight
seems to land on my legs and

Will you please discuss this in
one Of your columns?"
I have often said in this
column that we cannot lose

we have no diet for that, but
that we can distribute our
weight more attractively with
exercise, whether we do or do
not need calorie counting.
