Speaking of the situation created by the evolution of themotor truck in transportation, J. Gordon McKay, highway economist of the U, 8. bureau | | of public roads, in a preliminary re- port of the Counccticut experiment, | | | | Some of the promotion literature | advocates the inereascd development of highway inte of freight without to the comparative economics of oper-| | ation or an economic knowlcdge as to | whether this new transportation factor should be & supplementary or compe- | titive agency to existing transporta- | | tion systems, and is usually colored by a desire to create or extend| markets for the sale of the instru- ments of highway transportation. “The rapid development of motor transport organizations engaged in the transportation of freight during the war period of rail congestion was the real beginning of inter-city trucking. !"'his recent expansion of highway freight transportation has directed the attention of railroad operators to this new ‘so-called competitor.’ Particulur {uttention is directed by the railroad management to the taxation of the railrond gvestment, a portion of this| revenue being used for the construce tion of highways, paralleling rail lines, which it is pointed out by the rail anagement, provides a right of way tor a competitor. “The enthusiastic promotor of in- ter-city transportation of freight by motor truck insists that the moter truck will relieve the rail lines of an | unprofituble short huul.of less-than- | carlond freight and reduce operating and terminal charges. As matter o fact the terminal problem is contined to a limited number of citics and is not applicable to the country as & whole, The rail terminal troight costs of New York city arc the exception rather than the rule. The climination of less-than-carload treight transpor | tution in the short haul zonc may by desirable, but it will not necessarily reduce the fixed and operating cxpen- ses of rail frelght stations already in existenee long us industries in its tributary area continue to origipats rail car-load freight, and passeager, express and mail service must I maintained.” FIVE GAMES l}ISTED Putladelphia Nationals At Their Vie- s evidence as ginia Traming Camps Have By Week Ahead of Them, | Philadeiphia, March 17.—Five ex hibition games are on this wes training schedule of the Philadelphia Nationals at Lecsburg, Fa, The first contest is with the Brooklyn Dodgers | today reports from the Phillies camp s that Manuger Fleteher [ planned to present his strongest com bination.

TR fl This Favorite Super-Six Improved in All Ways The attractions of a more beautiful and comfortable body, with the greatest Super-Six chassis ever built are combined in the new Hudson Coach. Also unmatched price advantage. At $1475 it costs but little more than open models. Yet it provides the wanted comforts, distinction and all-season utility of a fine closed car. Motordom concedes that no car excels Hudson in performance reliability and long life at low maintenance. Now, to those famous qualities are added refinements that assure prompt starting in coldest weather, as well as greatly increased gasoline and oil economy.
