" 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.

POPULATION GROWTH
The nation's lest guide in preparing to meet the problem;;
of posterity is the decennial census and the deductions
reached through analysis of the figures. 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.
