OF RAIL SYSTEMS
Goal of 4-Year Project Is
More Comfort and Speed
Will Electrify Lines
for World Fair in 1942
By Joseph D. Ilavntto
United Press Staff Correspondent
ROME (UP) Thousands of work
men have started what Is to be ft
undertaking to Improve Fascist
jiaiy a railways.
These strong-mtucled laborers are
scattered from the northern frontier
to me tip oi tne peninsula.
During the next four years It will
be their task to build new stations,
lay down lines where none presently
exist, double sections of track which
now nave only slnRle linen, eliminate
grade crossings, electrify stretches
now vuvorca ay aiunm lines ana nulla
bridges and bore tunnels to shorten
Mil rilatnTmpm.
Others In factories will construct
new high-speed electric locomotives,
aerodynamic coachea and additional
first, second and third-class coaches
lor the ever Increasing traffic.
The object of all this feverish
activity Is to make traveling safer
and more comfortable, bring railways
to points not served, Improve the
service to other centers and shorten
the rail time between porta and fron
tier towns to Rome In time for the
1841 world fair.
Deadline Net In 11112
Fascists predict that every Item on
me mil win do completed, even to
me msi ooit, oy April 31, mil, when
the home fair Is to be Inaugurated.
One of the most Important single
items on tne program Is the con
struction of the new 98.000.000 elec
tric underground railway to Join
Rome and the world fair, which will
ce on tne outskirts or the capital.
The underground section will run
from Rome's central railway station,
down the Via Cavour to the colos
aeum. thence to Maxlmiis Circus and
along tne new Vlale Africa to St.
Paul's Date. Hero It will come to the
surface and for some distance use the
tracka or the existing Rome-OHIa
Una. It will branch off at Tre Fon
tane where the fair grounds are lo
cates.
The railway will be seven miles
long. It will have two lines or tracks
and the power will be auppllxi by
overhead cables. Each train will
have alx coaches equipped with auto
,matlc closing doors. There will bo
threo statlona In Rome tho Termi
nus, Snnta Maria Mngglore and the
Colosseum.
To (Jet New station
Tho next Item on the works pro
gram Is the construction of a new
central railway station for Rom?. The
one now In use Is too small to handle
the traffic and outmoded for tin im
portance that Rome has assumed.
The number of track mnninn
Roma will be Increased, the roadbeds
improved and tha signalling system
modernised.
The third Item, snd one affecting
tha northern part of tho country, was
announced by stefano Bennl, minis
ter of .communications, in a speech at
Oenoa on June 11.
It will coat the governient 84,000.
000 and serve to Increnso the Impor
tance of Oenoa aa a northern railways
and ship terminus. Benin's Oenoa
announcement waa the expected epi
logue to Premier Benito Mussolini's
Tlslt to that city late In May.
Tha proceaa of electrifying all of
Italy's lines will he n,ir,t,,t'
letup. The section between Pisa and
nome. wnicn is tne Incompleted elec
trio link between Rome ,ind tho
northern frontier, will be affected
roreign travelers will be able to
travel by electric train direct to Rome
wiuiout Branching oft through Florence,

He told of Dr. Reed's offer to pay
volunteers 1100 If they failed to get
the disease, and 1200 If they did. He
and Moran volunteered to be bitten
on condition they receive no finan
cial reward.
Of him and Moran, Major Reed
wrote that "this exhibition of moral
courage has never been surpassed In
the annals of the army of the United

Kissinger received a congressional

Kissinger also touched briefly on
his more than 10 years of suffering
with myelitis of the spine, which
started six years later. Some physic

of his strenuous work In the operat

hospital steward, together with the
fever.
He revealed that at Huntington,
plana were being made to erect either
an ell to the present hospital, or
an entirely new hospital to be called
the John R. Kissinger Memorial hospital.

The only other Virginia house race
waa much closer. Rep. Norman Ham
ilton, calling himself pro-Roosevelt
despite his vote against the govern
ment reorganization bill, lost by
aDout 1,500 votes to former Rep. Col
gate Darden, whom he had unseated
in 1930. Hamilton snld Darden was
backed by Sen. Harry Byrd's organ
ization. Kansas For Reed
In yesterday's Republican primar
ies, greatest Interest was shown In
the Kansas senatorial race because of
campaign charges that one of the
four candidates the Rev. Gerald
Winrod was pro-nazl. Winrod, who
denied the accusation, ran third.
The nomination went to former
Gov. Clyde Reed. The count In half
the state gave him 22.000 more votes
than DaJIas Knapp, running second,
and 26,000 more than Winrod. Tho
Rev. j. c. Fisher trailed.
Gov. Walter Huxman, Democrat,
was renominated without opposition.
State Senator Payne Ratner, who like
Reed Uvea In parsons, Kas was ahead
for the Republican gubernatorial
nomination.
Winner of the Republican sena
torial contest In Missouri was former
Oov. Henry 8. Caulfleld, who easily
defeated pollt'scally unknown Ray C.
White, St. Louis real estate man.
Senator Clark polled three and a
half times as many votes In the first ,
half of the state to report as did 1
hta three opponents combined, Jos
eph T. Davis, Willis H. Meredith, and
Robert I. Young.

Clark's victory for granted, were morj

preme court nomination between i
forces of Gov. Lloyd C. Stark and ;
T. J. Pendergast, Kansas City party t
leader. i
James V. Billings, endorsed by. '
Pendergast, took an early lead be
cause Kansas City's precincts were
counted early, but Judge James M.
Douglas gradually pulled ahead fe ,
returns came In from St. Louis, bis ,

Yesterday's primaries formed a sort
of curtain-raiser for two fiercely- ;
