If the Janene ntan works out for | better service, why not have some thing of the kind introduced into | American transportation? In all the plans drawn for the return of the railroads to private ownership, there ig little of promise for improved ser- vice. Such suggestions of economy as have been advanced have come mostly from persons outside the in- ner railroad circle. One of the sug- | Sestions of decided merit is the abandonment of short branch Hines that never have paid, and give no promise of ever paying, and trans- |forming them into high elass public highways bver which all sorts of vehicles from a one-horse wagon to the heavy motor truck, may bring freight from or deliver to territory within 50 miles of the main line, Whether the Japanese system of guarantee of promptitude in hand- ling freight would work out to ad- vantage in America is questionable. Most of the delay on the American railroad is not on the main line, but in the division points. Switching never has been brought up to the grade of one of the arts and prob- ably never will be improved until its steers, ——$ 5 — oi ates Hens—30@ 2c; broilers, 400 Geeee—t2@ 390.
