The Railway Age says the public benefited to the extent of '$910,224,000 in 1926. This is a large figure, but when analyzed it is dis- covered that the division in savings to the public runs this way: Ship- pers, $857,000,000; passengers, $53,- 000,000. More need not be said.

The city could very well carry its own insurance. This newspaper ad- vocated this plan for public bulld- ings several years ago.

A LAW TO SAVE FOOLS TFROM THEIR FOLLY One finds comment in ‘the public the large number of new laws which are constanfly promulgated when- ever a legislature meets. Critical {comment has it that half the laws | thus passed are unneceesary. | Speakers usually joln in with the | cditors and give the business of law- making a whack whenever the time propitious, which means whenever they get a chance to talk. Whether we get too many laws or not enough may be a matter of cpinion. When one notes how in this seems 1 | | {law, among a host of other laws, to !save autoists from their’ own folly ‘one is inclined to look upon the | business of making new laws with | considerable complacency. We refer, of course, to the law | which prohibits the | automobile gasoline tank while the | motor is in operation. It is not fre- | quent that accidents occur while this !is being done, but regardless of how | | kind Providence may be to thought- | less motorists at such times, there is ' | no denying that when gas is poured | |into a tank while the engine is run- ining the stage is set for a terific ex- i plosion. Such explosions have occur- | red and always with terrible results. Not only does the autoist in such | those in the car with him, but he |also menaces the lives of those who may happen in the filling station and all others nearby, as to be | erty. | The law which sceks to prevent | autoists from blowing up the neigh- borhood through such careles: {while filling automobile tanks no | doubt was regarded by many as |passed. An editor recently dryly | wrote that “fool laws” were passed ; was horn every minute, It is reported that many autoists irefuse 10 stop thelr engines when filling their tanks and it asked to do s0 by filling station employes they wax indignant and take thelr trade to another filling station. The “fool law” has teeth, how- {mended for their decision to enforce |it.

Now the air mall charge on a let- ter from coast to coast is cheaper than a special delivery letter and gets there days earlier. The public has quickly grasped the advantages ot air mail under such circum- stances. There is one point about the air mail service which still needs im- provement, however, and that is an alr service along the Atlantic coast. The entire distance from Boston to Miami shculd be covered with an air mail route, and it takes a pessimist to think that such a route would not pay as well or better than some of | the exlating routes. When one con- siders the large number of import- ant cities which could be served with such a route—Boston, New, York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, { Washingten, Richmond, Savannah, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Miami, and | others, the need for such a line be- comes apparent. At present there is a line Jacksonville and Miami, making one trip a day: but that is merely scratching the surface of the possibilities. A thorough | route from New York to Miami, | serving all intermediate citles as | well, would be a good paving insti- tution and would be of extreme con- | veniense to the public. It is hard to realize why there should be a coastwise development of alr mail on the Paclfic slope be- | fore such a system is in use on the | Atlantic seaboard. There is afr mail between Portland, Oregon, and Los Angeles, California, which serves San Fransico and other im- ! portant cities In between. The list of such places served, however, is in- consequential compared with similar possibilities on the Atlantic sea- board. between | | | service Mail between Florida and north has been considerable of years.
