" TRAVELING IN SAFETY Railroad travel is the universal standard of safety when people speak of the risks of flying and motoring and other travel modes, for about the safest place in the United States is in a railroad passenger car. Of the millions of passengers earned by the railroads last year only one lost his life in a collision of trains. In 1901, with fewer railroads and fewer passengers, rail road collisions were responsible for the death of 130 pas sengers. There were twice as many trainmen employed last year as in 1900, but less than one-quarter the number were killed and injured as compared with those killed and injured in 1900. These remarkable advances in safe operation of railroads are due to improved equipment, and care on the part of the railroad personnel. Today the leading systems go beyond legal requirements in making their lines safe and accident proof. The Union Pacific System for several years now has been awarded the E. H. I Iarriman Memorial Medal in recognition of its record for safety. On the 6.-W. R. R. & X. lines in 1929 passengers numbering 510,010; were carried without . injury,' ''arid in March of this year a banner was presented to the employees of the Second division (La Grande) for having the fewest casualties. ' The railroads, like other industries; know that safety is an economy; that eveiy dollar spent for safety appliances and improved equipment pays for itself many times over. MORE GASOLINE A new gasoline production process has recently been de veloped by American and German research workers, which promises to make available almost double the quantity of motor fuel now obtained from the crude oil. Up to the present time the demand for gasoline has far exceeded that for the fuel oil residue from distilling and cracking processes. Due to lack of a ready market for these by-products, gasoline has earned the lions share of refining costs. No method has yet been found for producing on a large scale a substitute for gasoline, nor for lowering the produc tion cost of crude oil from which gasoline is derived. The new process offers what is apparently the only other solu tion that of securing more gasoline from each liarrel of crude oil. The Standard Oil company of New Jersey is said to control the new process in the United States, and now proposes the transfer of this control to a new company in which present producers will participate in proportion to their production. Science and industry are thus meeting with success in their endless quest for cheaper motor fuel. can date his legislative career as far back as the 50th session.

So the national enumeration has !ecome vitally important. One conclusion drawn from the 1900 census report is that the population of the United States in the year 2000 will be Approximately 185,000,000 which is many millions Muw former "expert" estimates. Far from regarding a slow jwpulation growth with regret, however, we should look forward to it with hopefulness, because such a condition will give our people time, energy, and funds for the improvement of the quality of our living. Having gained our colonial purjse of becoming great in numbers, we may devote ourselves to the task of putting our civilization on a higher plane. Good books help us to understand ourselves Itetter, and help us better to understand the people and the world about us.
