U. P. Entitled to Connection Vtith C. Grav Savs l niou Pacific Proidrnt Re futes Charges That Com parison of Two Koade fa vore Southern System. Washington, Dec. 1..—(Special Tde t rani.)— Ilettiiln a charges by tins chairman af the Hum hern Pacific "ninparty that comparisons with tho Union Pacific favored the Heath orn Pacific, Carl K. Gray, president of the Union Pacific system. testified before the Interstate Commerce com mjtslon in opposition to tile Houthern Pacific’s application to retain control of tho Central Pacitb ’ Uur pa.-aofigf r and freight trains make better tiiuo than they do on the Southern Pacific," said Mr. Gray. "Tiie Union Pacific is required to help the Southern Pacitb make through schedule* by accepting a faster run ning time becausej the Union Pacific has improved its railroad by installing second track and reducing *its con trolling grader, in fact, most of tho comparisons of Southern Pacific and Union Pacific operating performances favor tho Union Pacific, The Union Pacific is not primarily nor funda mentally asserting a desire to extend its ownership into central and north ern California. "Our contention is^hat vv < are en titled, however, to a connection on the part of tho Central l'acltlc rail way, which will work with he whole licartedly and has no conflicting in terests on account of m additional route through other gatewavs. It is admitted that the long association of tho Southern aCentral Pacific in centrat California has produced a. community of interests which must have consideration. 'I he shipping and traveling public should not suiter as a. result of conditions for which it is not in any way responsible, nor should there be any Increase in rates over the basis which has barn applied here tofore. Neither should it be deprived of any oseentml service. The supreme court clearly recognized tho pos.-dbil ity of these disruptions and expressly provided that there should be an a> commodation of such matters, llo'ie ts antpie precedent for tin joint use of lines and such joint use is conven tional throughout tho country." Seattle, San Franeizeo anfl Salt Bake carry on three-cornered radio talks. This is an indication of the possibilities of the future, when all of the cities of the country may join in the radio discussion of civic prob lems. By combining radio direction find ing with submarine sound detectors French engineers have been able to determine accurately the positions of ships at sea. Errors due to atmos pherics, fogs, storms and other na tural causes were averted. It was decided upon at twmeeting of missionaries In Tzeehow, West China, that radiophones, together with airplanes, were to bo used as aids In missionary work In the orient. In the City where the meeting was held the delegates could see. the mountains of Tibet located at a dis tance that would take several weeks' journey from Shanghai to reach, as there are no rail lines In that region. Because of the lack of transporta tion facilities and inaccessibility of tome sections, missionaries have been unable to reach many of these local ities: The missionaries, planning work for the next 10 years, voted for four sets of radiophone receivers with which to link up the widely separated mailt stations, and four two passenger air planes with which to reach the. in accessible sections.
