RECORD RAIL
TRAVEL YEAR
"Increases In travel by railway
re occurring so fast trial the
railways apparently will be call
ed upon to handle more passen
ger traffic In 1942 than in any
previous year in history," savs
Railway Age. "If they satisfac
torily succeed, it will be in spite
of difficulties, because diversion
ot travel to highways caused a
sharp reduction In cars available
tor passenger-carrying by rail.
"incomplete data indicate that
passenger traffic (passengers car
ried one mile) had begun in May
to exceed all previous records
The previous May record made
in 1920 was 3 billion 800 million
passenger-miles, while the traffic
in May, 1942, apparently exceed
ed 3 billion 900 million passenger-miles.
In 1920, when travel
by rail was the largest in historv.
It amounted in the first five
months to 171 billion passenger
miles, while in the first five
months of 1942 it was about
16 13 billion.
"The Increase in passenger
train speeds has helped accom
plish these increases in service;
but much more than increase in
speeds has been necessarv. Lnwi.
motives and cars must be kept
moving more continuously than
ever, and the number of cars per
train aas naa to be increased.
Average revenue passengers per
car increased 27 per cent in the
first quarter to 18.4 passengers;
but, as this figure shows, most
cars have not been crowded, al
though there has been some
crowding in territorltles having
we largest traffic increases.
"The railways thus far havo
done a good job in handling the
nugeiy increased traffic. And a
public which so largely deserted
them to ride on rubber can make
no reasonable complaints when
unable to get all the service it
wants on rails.

It has been estimated that
more than two billion pounds of
fats are wasted In the kitchen
each year. Since fats are a
source of explosives now vitally
needed for tho armed forces, it
makes It necessary to toko Imme
diotc steps to jnlvngo these waste
kitchen fats.
Housewives In Klamath coun
ty are urged to Join In the sal
vage campaign to obtain waste
fats and oils for making glycer
ine which Is needed for explo
sives. Local meat dealers are to
receive waste fats turned in by
the housewives. Thp ricalprs will
pay four cents a pound for the
waste fat and will turn the fat
back Into tho commercial chan
nels where it will reach the
government.
Housewives are asked nnt fn
turn in fats which they can use
in cooking what la wanted Is
that no fats be wasted. Tho cam-
oaicn urees that nil fnta that
come from preparing other foods
be used around the house so that
the purchase of fats from the
stores will be reduced to a mini-1

It is desired that hnuspwlvps
save pan drippings from roasts,
lots trimmed off meat, soup skim
mings, bacon, ham and satisnee
frylngs, broiler drippings, and
any other by-product of meat
preparation. j
Not less than one pound should j
be taken to the meat dealers at
