Since 1916, owing'to’the abandonment’ of a number of unpfofitable short lines, the mileage has been actually reduced, being now about 249,800 miles. At -pres- ent lew construction’ is alitiost etitirely limited to adding a second; third or even fourth track to existing: lines. One of the most striking developments ‘in railroads ‘thas been’ the increase in the size of locomotives. From a weight of less than five tons 100 years ago, they have today ‘many passenger locortiotives weigh 150 tons or more, while those used in freight ‘tYansportation range‘as high as 220 tons or more. Ai few specific types, exceed 400 :tons. With the growing competition: of the : automobile, truck and airplane, itis inipos- sible to predict what the next ceritury of railroading may bring forth. It is safe to predict, however, that for heavy freight transportation the railroad. will hold first place for-many years to come. A CIVIL WAR TILT Lincoln’s reliance upon Stanton, his great secretary of war, is well known. They did’ not’ always agree, however, and Stan- ton seems to have felt entirely free to op- pose his chief upon occasion. Some official correspondence dug up by a writer for the Boston Herald is re- markable for its iustration of this poimt, as well as being an‘ indication that few “words were wasted by these giants in mak- ing their respective views: kriown. It seems that Lincoln wanted’ a cettain man appoint- ed an army.chaplain. Stanton objected, _with apparent success, as the correspon- dence quoted indicates: “Dear Stanton: Appoint this man chaplain in the army. A Lincoln,” “Dear Mr. Lincoln: He is not a@ preacher. E. M. Stanton.” “Dear Stanton: He is now. A. Lin- coln.” “Dear Mr. Lincoln: But there is:no ‘va: cancy. E. M. Stanton.” “Dear Stanton: Appoint him chap: lain-at-large. A Lincoln.” “Pear Mr. Lincoln: There is rio’wat- rant in law for that., EB. M. Stanton.” “Dear Stanton?.. Appoint himanyhow. A. Lincoln.” : “Dear Mr, President: I will not. E. M. Stanton.” * THE PRIVILEGE OF LIVING TODAY (Independent, Littleton, Ind) The year 1933 will go down in history. Just as our grandfathers talked of the Revolutionary period and our fathers of the Civil War era, so our children will refer back to 1933. The greatest social changes in the history of out nation are now taking place. Europe sits spell- bound at America’s daring. We, ourselves, are almost too dazed to realize the transi- tion. We are changing from an individualis- tic society to one of cooperation. There will be anxious moments in this changing pro- cess, but those who have adopted the phil- osophy of John Dewey in regarding each experience, whether happy or sad; as something to enrich one’s life, will benefit most from this experiment. There is too much humanity in the world for this experiment not to succeed: We may falter on the way, but the Ameri- can people have never known the meaning of the word fail. Frankly, we would rather live in 1933 then in any peried in the history of Ameri- ca. For the first time we have a patriotic call without girding ourselves to kill. That in itself, would mark out the year 1933 as han historic twelve months. KEY ‘WESTIN DAYS GONE.

The Tugboat Edgar F. Coney, bound from Miami to Havana, Cuba, put into this port yesterday. owing to prevailing bad weather in the Gulf of Mexico. The tug has a’ batge in tow and will leave for Havaria as sodn as better weather prevails.
