"The Transportation Prob lem” has always been a subject for political haranguing but, during the past two years, while stump speak ers and radical editors have been talking and writing—the railroads have been solving the so-called problem. Look at the figures for yourself— during the week that ended October 25, 1924, more than one million one hundred thousand loaded freight cars were handled by the railroads of the United States (1,112,345)— the great est tonnage ever handled in their BlSIory. hifitorv If you are neither a shipper nor a receiver of freight, ask some of your friends who are in business whether or not the railroads are doing their part towards increasing prosperity. Congress should give the "Trans portation Act” a fair test and the railroads should not be annoyed by useless changing of rules and regula tions governing their operation.
