That was the reason for the blast of whistles and sirens that split the air Monday morning at 8 o'clock. It was the railroads signaling notice of re covered business and prestige. The U. S. railroads this year ought to earn a gross of six billion dollars. Most of it will go for labor and other operating costs, for purchase, maintenance and replacements. Cessation of railroad buying hit the country hard during the depression, and the recovery of their revenue, meaning a resumption of railroad expendi tures, is a bright spot in the picture of business prospects. In the coming year the railroads will carry more passengers than they did in 1926, and probably more than 60 per cent over last year's passenger total. Freight gains will be up from 10 to 15 per cent over last year. What the railroads have done to increase service and regain business has been pretty well publicized, because it has been inspiring and interesting news. Streamlined, air-conditioned trains, greater speed, lower fares, and a host of other improvements, have comprised the rail roads' answer to the challenge of passenger competition from the highway and the air lane. Likewise there have been improvements in the handling of freight, winning new business from shippers. What the railroads have done and are doing is of enormous importance to Klamath Falls. This commun ity owes much of its development to the railroads, and it depends greatly upon them for sustenance. For an off-hand figure, consider the fact that the railroads pay 9228,820 in taxes in Klamath county this year. They are a hirhlv imDortant part of the industrial and agri cultural program, in the Klamath empire. They turn out a big payroll nere every two weens. Dunne- the comintr week, a good deal of attention will be paid to the railroads. Much information about them, both aa thev affect this community and the coun. trv as a whole, will be rjublished. We commend railroad week to Klamath, empire people as something to cele brate. Old Cars Dangerous EARLY in Klamath's celebration week, but before the t festivities really began, this newspaper camea two pictures of ancient cars involved in serious automoou wrpolrn. one of them DrovinG? fatal. The first reaction of those planning the celebration was that it was a mistake to mar the generally pleasant atmosphere of the week with pictorial evidence of tragedy. But as the week progressed without further accidents indeed, with an accident and police record unusually clean there came a realization that these pictures and the stories that went with them may have served as a real warning to the public early in the cele bration veriod. Another angle on the value of these pictures is dis cussed in Sunday's edition of the Eugene Register-Guard Here is what the Eugene paper says; Picture In The Klamath Evening Herald preach a power ful warning agalnet tha use of wornout automobile. In on day recently two old "heaps" were the came ot two Tery bad accidents which landed one youth In the morgue and four other persona in the Klamath hospitals. The Klamath newspaper has done a real service by get tins pictures of these wrecks. Much is said about tha danger of old equipment but many refuse to believe it. As long as a ear will mora It la considered safe. There li a point, however, beyond which no ear la sat no matter how well it haa been preserred. ' Metal subjected to years of vibration "crysUliiei." No mat ter how carefully an ancient car la driven some vital unit may give way at any moment, A new ear la often economy for safety's sake. Since this newspaper installed an engraving plant, many s i car wrecK picture has appeared in it. It is our jiupo mm wiese pictures may serve a real purpose in ' making the public hazard-conscious and helping to reduce the terrible toll of life and property damage resulting A VJill feUbV'llUU.IC a-'lUwlUS, MACD0EL MACDOEL Mr. and Mrs. Har old Thurston and family have moved to Santa Cruz where they will go into the restaurant busi ness, Airs.

Nevertheless, thoso who have talked with him know that he has some very definite, it not elaborate Idea. For one thing, he wants to go to the Pacific coast the Intter part of Septoni ber, and he undoubtedly will. For another, he wanta to do mora campaign traveling than any president seeking re-election has ever done, and no one haa ever yet been able to atop him wncn nia feet Itch. Hia advisers are telling him not to go. They seem to be al most unanimous in the onlnlon tnat nts host campaigning spot is the white House. A few sneechps in the mid-west and a concen trated final drive In the east la all they want. They told hint the same thine in 19 i a when ha Invited them to a big dinner at Albany to solicit tneir advice. Then, he went. Now they say there may have been some excuse for that 1913 weatern trip. Hia problem then waa to ahow himself to the country, but that problem has now been mora than adequately met. Nevertheless, Mr. Roosevelt will go again. Trie only reason his associates know is that he likea to go placea. He enjora waving at people and having them wave back. EXPANSION Tha delay ot tha ren'uhlleana In gettlug organised waa due, Inaldera say, to tha axnanaiva acuviues ot to iinanca coin mlttee. Usually, political finance com. mitteea confine themaelvea to raising money. They let others worry aoout the apendlng ot it, Apparently thla on la going to no uuiorenc. 'inoae wno nave sharp eyea noticed that, when Finance Chair man Ball called upon Governor -anaon not lonsr ato. ha an, nounced he had discussed a num- ner or thing in connection with me campaign, aa well aa finance He did not aay so, but one of the thinga he discussed waa the publicity directorship, a subject wnicn aoea not ordlnar lv con. earn finance committee chairmen. as a result, there may be a wider use ot practical bualnesa management methods in thla campaign. Also mor delay. WEATHER "Oh, come on and hove dinner with us. This is my house. mi i hi tiutu uu i cure now mttu me wite (jnsf CORRECTION A grievous error waa com mitted recently In thla column. In referring to the progress of the cooperative movement in Sweden, the erroneous statement waa mad that the cooperative movement had flonnad In Pn. land. Th fact la early cooperatives in England failed because they tried to undersell their private competitor before they were strong enough. However, the aunaequent Kochdale movement ha had a great degree of success on more practical lines, as Is now being widely advertised. PAX There la one rnvArnmont oureau. and orobablv onlv nn in which the free fiehtina- fpvpr of the new dealers haa failed to break out. Even the credul ous Ripley will never believe It, but .In this bureau, such nnn- coaleaclng elements aa Miss Per- ins, Mr. Wallace and Mr. Ickes hav managed to serve more or leaa together for two years with out a acratch. Thla la practically ft miracle. There haa never been another board, commission or meeting in which Misa Perkins served, even with more placid men than Wallace and Ickea. without someone running to the president within three days de manding peace or death. Thla miraculously serene num. oil la the civilian conservation eorpa advisory board, and th explanation for It probably Is that th non-comfortlsta do not generally meet face to face, hut end their representatives to board meeting, for Instance, Ickea sends hi Cammerer, Miss Parklna her Frank Paraona. Wal. laca hi Sllcoi. Even o, a movement Is weeping th new deal to get them th next Nobel peace prise, in case Mussolini doe not try for it, e hOVf FARES Over th July 4 weekend, one railroad bar Increased th dol lar volume of ita ticket aalea about 66 per eent despit the reduced fares. Ita ticket sales from one station amounted to 45,000 this year aa compared with 128,000 last year. Last year special round-trip rates wer offered which were not in effect thla year. on thla road the local nassen- ger business for the first month of low fare picked up about 35 per cent In dollars. This Is an incipient hint that the ICC may not have been far wrong when It told the railroads that the way to make money la to reduce rates and improve service Just a all other success ful post-depression businesses have done.
