HUhr CHIOAOQ (Pj America's railroads are becoming "air-minded" In their quest for two goals greater speed and more business. Stream-lining, weighs reduction, alr-condltlonlng, noise elimination, vibration absorption these are key note of changes being- made or con- ' templatcd by many of the nation's -ran, carriers. And some of tlie croations already evolved aro in striking contrast to tlie conventional type of steam, train which has prevailed with little ma jor evolution through several decodes. . New Me tub Lis liter New and lighter metals, new Ideas in rubberized shock absorption, and smaller, more compact- unlta with consequent greater speed and econ omy are factors entering Into tlie railroads' battle to increaso passenger traffic in competition with airlines i and automobiles. Exhibits in the travel and trans- port hall of the Century of progress here tell a graphic story of railroads evolution, but leader of the Indus try ay the next few year may see changes fully as radical as those of the last century. Home Already Building Two lines operating west of Chi cago the Chicago, Burlington and Qulncy, arid tho Union Pacific - - are building three - car, "articulated" unlta which in appearance will bear out the most futuristic sketches of fast land -transportation visionaries.

Some stream-lining departures are seen even in the big steam trains of today that ore part of the fair's trans portation headlights, smokestacks and other engine-top equipment, flush window sills, and rounding off of heretofore square corners. Changes In Motive Power Propulsion of these "rail planes" will likewise depart from the steam energy which has been used almost universally by American roads. Oil burning and oil-electric motors will draw the three-car trains at estimat ed top speeds of between 110 and 120 miles an hour, with supply tanks holding enough fuel to pernvJt'a ."cruising range" of 1,200 miles. Rubber, in. shear. In the actual wheels, between tire and axle, sound proof double-glossed windows, con stant alr-condlttoning and luxurious furnishings are ."comfort" features of the new trains.

Should Moley's inquiry take him abroad, as it probably will, Hull will bid him bon voyoge, and a long fare well. For he will know that when tho traveler returns, ho (Hull) will bo in South America on a special mission of his own, and tho two may never meet as colleagues again. This Is no contradiction of those official statements saying Molcy and Hull are "in perfect accord" pro vided you read these statements care fully. They are quite certainly m perfect accord that Mr. Roosevelt has acted wisely In giving Moley a new Job prior to Hull's return from Lon don. ' Tho story of Moley is one of the most interesting of these, interesting days. ' ' A charter member of the "brain trust" of advisers during the Roose velt campaign, ho had his first really big moment when he' went with the president-elect to the White House to discuss war debts with President Hoover, The story told among Mr. Roose velt's Intimate Is that he thought somcono else should be present and, Moley being handy, took him along1, Tlie story told among Mr. Hoover's Intimates is that the professor's prin cipal contribution to the discussion was tlilS question: "Can't th dele gates to theso conferences economize by living two a, room at hotels In Effect of Floating Power' wm&m '.flat- ( ' ; - W Sift flour onceN measure- add bait-- ing powaer, soda, and salt, and sift again.

Re move bowl from hot water. Fold in fluur and vanilla. Turn into greased pan, 15 x 10 inches, lined -with greased paper; and bake In hot oven (400" F.) 13 minutes. Quickly cut off crisp edge of cuke. Turn from pan at once onto cloth covered with powdered sugar. Remove paper. Spread with jelly and roll; Wrap in cloth and cool on rack. (For a moist butter sponge roll, fold S tablespoons melted butter into batter before turning into pan.) v stead of singly?" Be that as It may, Moley liked the experience and wanted more. Mr. Roosevelt rejected hints that he be come a White House secretary. He put him Just across the street in the stote department with the title of assistant secretary. Moley never really functioned as his title might indicate. Department mall did not pass over his desk. He served, rather,', as a sort of adjunct to the Whito House secretariat with out bolrfg'a part of it. , Reports went around that1 Mr. Roosevelt decided nothing without asking Moley. No informed person -believes that any more. The presl-i dent relies on Moley greatly, fouti not' that greatly. ' ' I The arrangement worked without any real hitches until Moley made; his dramatic dash to the London con-i ference, where Hull was presiding oVerj the tangled affairs of the American) delegation. j Hull's friends and associates ahow-j cd no enthusiasm for the manner of Moley's coming, or for the terior'of messages he sent on ahead' No onef knows yet What will be done about Moley's expense bill of several hun dred dollars for an airplane to drop him out of the sky on the British capital. " Tho climax arrived when Muley negotiated his stabilization" agreed ment. and afterward telephoned Hull asking his approval. Hull refused. Moley went ahead anyway, but tils agreement was rejected by tlie presi dent. ... ; . Other delegates, returning ahead of Hull, brought tidings of what might be expected once the secretary set foot again In the state department. They told Mr. Roosevelt, who regards Hull with affection and respect!, that something must be done at once.' There is not the slightest sign that Moley's removal to the Justice de partment, to oversee the crime cru sade, means he lias lost his standing with the president. Justice Is only a littlo farther from the White House than is state.
