From the Kansas City Star. It is a reasonable assumption that It the valuations placed upon their property by the railroads of the coun try were to be sustained, more than $600,000,000 would be added to the country’s transportation burden an nually. That immense sum loaded upon an expenditure account that al ready is heavy would prove a serious handicap to the transaction of busi ness and would increase the cost of living. It would have a result amount ing to little less than disaster for this section, one of the greatest needs of which now is relief from transporta tion costs that are both excessive and out of line with those in other sec tions. The decsion of the court in the St. Louis and O’Fallon railroad vallua tion case is therefore a fortunate de velopment, especially for the Middlle West and Southwest. It is evident that the court gave particular atten tion to the public welfare aspects of this case. Those, obviously, must pre dominate. Railroad transportation Is related intimately to the progress of the whole country and to every separate section and community. The welfare of one is the welfare of the other. Neither can thrive at the expense of the other. The two must be main tained in a prosperous condition, or decline, together. To have allowed the substantially higher valuations which the railroads claimed would have been to create a condition with seriously detrimental consenuences not only for the American public, but. as the court opinion indicated, for the railroads themselves. With the increase of $11,000,000,000 over the Intestate Commerce com mission's tentative valuation figures, for which the railroads have been Hoover** Handicap*, From the Nation. Secretary Hoover may be the nom inee. but there will be a hard fight against him. The question of his eligibility under ‘the constitutional clause requiring 14 years of consec utive residence will be brought up against him. and so will the fact that tn 1918 he called upon Americans to vote for democratic candidates for congress and to defeat the republican party. In 1*30 he was for taking us into the League of Nations lock, stock, and barrel, and he upheld the World Court most enthusiastically. A vet* eran Men at or has Just said to me that 1/ Hoover can quality to run on a contending, the carriers would be al lowed under the transportation act the stipulated fair return of 5 3-4 per cent, on the added amount. With the estimated 18 per cent, general in crease in freight rates which this would bring there would be a depress ing effect upon shipping and business as a whole which soon would react in decreased revenue for the roads. The railroads have been able, with the present rate levels, materially to improve their positions. Further progress of the same kind is possible, even with the rate adjustntents that are necessary for this region. The es tablishment and maintenance of fair and equalized rates throughout the country must be the salvation of the railroads; because it is upon that condition, and upon it alone, that there can be the'general prosperity from which arises an ample volume of traffic and consequently revenue. No Wane in Auto Trade Alfred Reeves, in Commerce and Finace. Anyone who can lcok upon the au tomotive horizon for 1928 cannot fail to be impressed with the favorable signs on all sides. It is, of course, a commonplace ob servation in the industry to speak of the large amount of pent-up buying which will be realized to a large ex tent bwy the general public but it Is worth a moment’s consideration in detail. The production of something more than 3.500.000 motor vehicles in 1927. was a drop from the preceding year, marking the absence of the lowest priced car from the market. The total of oilier compantrs for 1927 as compared with 1926 was somewhat larger, but the fact that close to a million fewer cars were purchased in republican platfo m he will have to eat more of hU own words than any man in generations who has been a candidate. His friends tell me that Hoover 1* quite a reformed character, that he Is no longer for the League, and that he has seen the light in the matter of th- World Court. Cannot a man in public life change hts opin ions? they ask Of course he can and dors, precisely as Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson changed their respective views on woman suffrage, the initiative, the referendum, the recall of judges, William J. Bryan and a cocked hat. and innumerable questions. But the fact that a man i can change so read’ , that in 1911 he j 1927 indicates the volume of waiting buyers. Accordingly in 1928 one may look for a normal business year plus a large share of this volume of delayed purchases. The return to the business of pro duction of all companies is going to have a stimulating effecta on export totals. The shipments from this country and the assemblies abroad have hovered close around the one half million mark. Leaders in the in dustry have predicted that this total will soon be doubled. The reason for so believeing is not idle optimism, but is based on a consideration of the his tory of motor growth in the country. Motor transportation begets motor transportation. Once lntrduces a few automobiles into any section, demon strate the usefulness and convenience which they bring, and the increase shortly becomes accelerated. The in itial purchasing power is not the lim iting line, because the wealth created by the timesaving device raises the purchasing ability of the community. I look to see nof fewer than 3.0000, 000 families in the country owning two cars within a short period of time. The number now we estimate to be well in excess of 2.500.000 and the tendency is rapidly growing. The pub lic wants individual transportation and with the low prices of cars the families which could afford one auto mobile 10 years ago can readily main tain two cars today. ——-« Q Can there be more than one tornado at a time in the same storm?

"Wanted” Men Trapped by Their Home Paper The news stands handling out-of town papers, which are scattered throughout tlie mldtown section of Manhattan, are frequently watched by detectives in search of men wanted by the authorities In other cities.

Audience Warned Not to Expect Too Much Mary Louise, age eight, was to piny In a music recital one afternoon, a few days ago. As the eventful day drew near, unusual effort was neces sary to master the little piano selec tion, which had suffered somewhat by rather Irregular practicing the week before. Mary's mother was much concerned about the slow progress the child was making, for she was to he present nt the recital, and she had a very natural desire to see her child do credit to the family. The afternoon of the recital, Im agine her chagrin, when her daughter walked on the stage, turned to the rather large audience and said in a most Indifferent manner: “Well, folk, I Just want to tell you before I begin that I do not kpow this piece very well" Now Synthetic Wood Building products, like certain pat ented creal foods, are now “shot from guns.” „ A wood fd>er synthetic lumber Is manufactured from sawmill waste by an explosive proces’s which shreds the i chips into a fluffy mass preparatory to molding, under great pressure, Into large broad boards, which may be con veniently applied ns sheathing or for partitions.
