Meanwhile the South African conflict brought' derftant!s for ac tion at the Unitxtrl Nations. Eigh teen countries called for a U.N. commission to look into the situ ation. The comparative density of rail road trafic in England and Amer ica is indicated by the fact that a locomotive is employed for every two and a half miles of track on British railways and for every five miles in tlie United States.
