The railwRjra of the United States are more thaa one-third,
nearly one - half, of all the railways of the world. They
carry a yearly traffic so much greater than that of
any other country that there is really no basis for compari-
son. Indeed, the traffic of any two nations may be com-
bined, and still it docs not approach the commerce «f
America borne upon American railways.
—Umlud Statu IfMinr Cummin*.
Ask Any Doughboy Who
Was "Over There"
and he will tell you that American railroads are
the best in the world.
He saw the foreign roads — in England and
France, the best in Europe — and in other Con-
tinental countries — and he knows.
The part railroads have played in the develop-
ment of the United States is beyond measure.
American railroads have achieved high stand-
ards of public service by far-sighted and courage-
ous investment of capital, and by the constant
striving of managers and men for rewards for work
well done.
We have the best railroads in the world — we
must continue to have the best.
But they must grow.
To the $20,000,000,000 now invested in our
railroads, there will have to be added in the next
few ye«trs, to keep pace with the nation's business,
billions more for additional tracks, stations and
terminals, cars and engines, electric power houses
and trains, automatic signals, safety devices, the
elimination of grade crossings — and for recon-
struction and engineering economies that will re-
duce the cost of transportation.
To attract to the railroads in the future the in-
vestment funds of many thrifty citizens, the direct-
ing genius of the most capable builders and man-
agers, and the skill and loyalty of the best work-
men — in competition with other industries Rid-
ding for capital, managers and men — the railroad
industry must hold out fair rewards to capital, to
managers and to the men.
American railroads will continue to set world
standards and adequately serve the Nation's needs
if they continue to be built and operate ! on the
American principle of rewards for work well done.

Radium Economy.

therapeutically Involves danger of
loss, and this factor has been a big
one in Inducing hospitals and cllnica
with a gram or more of the element In
use to utilize radium emanation In-
stead of applicators containing the
radium itself. There has been In-
stalled In a PittsBurgh laboratory an
elegant and useful apparatus for the
collection, purification and tubing of
radium emanation obtained from a
salt of the element. It differs from

replaced by chemical means of puri-

be more reliable.—Scientific American.
