LISBON Former King Manuel
of Portugal recently was made the
central figure of a supposed poli-
ical intrigue, of which he appar
ently was innocent. The occasion
was the pilgrimage of nearly 2060
Portugese Roman Catholics, in
cluding many 'prelates, to Rome
for the Holy Year celebration.
Before the arrival of the pil
grims in Rome news redchp.i t ia-
bon that the ex-king was in the
Eternal City and some one in Lis-

ment that the Portuguese pil
grims iiad gone to Rome with the
intention of carrying out some
political maneuvers with the ex-
King at their head. This resulted

RAILWAYS TURN TO MOTOR
. TRUCKS FOR ECONOMY
It seems as if the branch line
railroads of tomorrow will be rail
less. The locomotive and the box
cars will be used for more orofit
able work and the branch line sta
tions will be served by motor
trucks operating over, paved high
ways, i
; Recent activities of railway com
panies snow a definite trend in
this, direction. Already thlrtv
five American railroads are using
tneg motor truck for hauling
freight and traffic emerta are
making Btudles to determine other
locations where the .motor truck
can save money for the railroads.
PAVED ROADS AND RAILYAWS
' The railways have becom. ori
ent good roads boosters. ' Far tee
ing railroad executives have long
ago seen the advantages of Im
proved highways in enablinsr the
farmer to haul his produce to the
railway station for shlnment. That
feature in Itself was of great Talae
to the railways. ; - , w .
? But now they have another
cause, for, standing squarely be
hind the good roads - movement.
They no longer regard the motor
truck as a competitor. In fact it
ts now considered as an ally and
railroads are each year maklnr
more use of thia new factor ' in
transportation. Railroads are be
ginning to reap definite returns
from the taxes they pay for high
way construction.
