WEI.LESLEV HILLS, Mass., July
Vi. During the pa.-t weti-: Koger W.
Babson has been in New York in con
Kultnlion with important railway interests-
Me has returned believing
that a freight car shortage is inevit
able; this fall, and everything possible
should be done to prevent it. Concern
ing thy same, Mi Hanson states a-'
follows:
"Thcie are various events which in
dicate a venous congestion , of freight
this fall. First, theie is a real short
age of equipment in good condition.
Throughout the war the equipment of
most railroads was allowed to run
down? Little was done to repair equip
ment until this year. Daring the pn.it
few months railroads have been en
deavoring to do iive years repair j
worK in one- As a result a great,
many iieigiu cars are either in the
process of being repaired or are wait-1
ing to be repaired. In either case theyj
are out of service. It is true that i
many of these ears will be hack in ser-l
vice by winter but they will not be I
available by fall. This means thati
ttlowi urn 1',. i.-o.. mvi;,I,I l,i.,l'
to haul freight than are usually avail
able. "Usually the V.plroads haul then
coal during the spring and summer.
The winter supply is usually deliver
ed by the railroads during the suni-
njer months. Thus far this year very!
little coal has been -hauled. Only im
mediate needs have "Hp en taken care
of. let only two more months re
main before people will b starting
their furnace fires. On th:; assump
tion that the miners will soon be
back to work this means that the rail
roads will be dclug'.d with coal dur-j
ing the remainder of the year. Every (
available ear capable of hauling coal;
will be pressed into service and the J
cwal tonnage should be very, yery
h?vy. . I
" "The outlook today is for good:
crojxi this Jail- .At prevailing prices
. th farm will aut to -,eil their;
grvuiHi and mow it til once. J ois
raven that the railway will be caH
ed upon t'o move a treiuendiuH amount
. of ftrain while th'ry nrattr-mjJ'.ini; to
move the coal. There are factors
which lead one to believe that manu
facturing as a whole will be more ae
tire this fall than it has been aL any
timr this year. Fundamental statis
tics indicate that the bw pcint in
business will be reached this summer.
Thus the -railroads will, bo taxed bV
hauling raw maittlais in fcerieial and
manufactured products of t.il son--"
Mr. 1' abson was then as'it 1 what
ffect such a congestion woti 'l have
upon commodity prices ami -lecL'.ntiafc.
To this he replied as follows.
"Freight t a-r eongestien inei. itably
leads to higher prices. 'ln:s is ord;.
natural as prices are detei mired, not
by costs, but by supply and' dfiiiancl.
if a city uses M) carloads of pota
toes a day, any day that there is a!
shortage of jinly two or three cus,
the price of potatoes in, that city goej
un. Another day when there i i a
surplus of only wo cars, the p-iie ol
all potatoes goes down, l'tk'e i not
determined by the tolal nuamity o;
a product product d cf corsumeJ, but
rather by that small perc'-"V.; o!
surplus or shortage. A i ( .jrl't lor.
gestion this fall would iiH'viuhlv icad
to a shortage in certain raw n. ttjr'a s
and merchandise in some localities. A
a result these commodities will tem
poiarily strengthen in price at these
points. Such a result is iiu'virabh'.

FLAGSTAt F, Ariz-, July 15
Members of the staff of Lowell Oo
seivatory here aie elated over recent
itudies o4 the planet Mars winch, they
issert, bear out the theories of the
ate 1'eicival Luwell, founder of the
observatory, as to snowfall and vege
tation on the little red planet. Mars,
neatest neighbor of this world with
the exception of Venus, is closer ti
the earth now than at any, time "in
IS years. Observations have been in
progress for the past five mouths each
hour of every night that weather con
ditions would permit- Hundreds of
photographs and charts haJe been
made. - i
The seasons on Mars have the same
sigmticanee as on our earth and occur
in the samt, manner, but about tvticL
the length of our own, according to
Doctors K. C. and V. M. Sliphej-, ot
the observatoiy staff. A statement by
them on the results of the latvat ob
servations here follows:
"Winter has been occurring in thS
southern hemisphere of th pianei
Mars and the extensive dark area
there are now faint and have Un so
for some time betokening the (Vil
season of vegetation in conformity
with the view held by Lowell reward
ing the seasonal changes ona ttte plKtnS6
"The large winter cap ol whit atowjc
the south pole of Mars, whiriY for
some months has appeared to torwitt
of only mist or cloud eo wring Uv
south polar regions of the piamt down
to latitude forty degrees, is now dis
sipating and disclosing a mantle of I
snow beneath. Tqtr spiing st-aon for
the southern hemisphere is now ap
proaching, thp season there at pres
ent corresjionding to our March 21,
and these changes are characteristic
ol late winter over the south of Mars.i
"In the northern hemisphere autumn,
is arriving and the polar cap there has-j
ah eady become conspicuous, having;
increased rapidly during the last few
Martian nights- On the night ot June
17 it was observed that whe.i the plan
et's longitude 2(5 came' into Martian'
sunrise, and therefore visible to us,
that a vast area thee had during the
preceding night been covered with a
bright canopy. This bright hood fac
ed off toward the equator but was dis
cernible down nearly fifty degrees
north iatitudd and veiled the darker
markings of the northern pait of tlvi
piant. This event marked thp first
riuliv big auumn storm in the north
ern hemisphere of Mars n'i far this
year. On that date the Martian sea
son corresponded to our September V
Forty indications of autumn made
their appearance a month and a half
ago at a Martian -season correspond
ing to our late August- These obser
vations have been recorded on phono
