careful investigation on the part of Mr. Lepper.
Solmonberry and Trask routes, conceded to be impracticable
on account of engineering difficulties, have each one sum­
mit only. The number has nothing to do with the question.
Location, grade, alignment, elevation, are the real deter­
mining factors.
The highest elevation on the Vernonia-Hamlet route is
1460 feet, less than one half that on the ridge route, and
it is the lowest maximum of all of the six proposed routes.
The route is ranked first in alignment (an impossibility
if the four summits were as “major” as the term implies),
and has the shortest maximum grade.
The four major summits are not so much of an im-
impediment as Mr. Lepper might suppose.

AFTER THE DEPRESSION
WHAT?
We are indebted to Roswell
Smith, a real estate man of Van-
Nuys, California, for the collec­
tion of certain facts about finan­
cial depressions in the past which
should be valuable in predicting
the future. Mr. Smith went
through a file of newspapers
back to the 1850's and finds these
facts:
There was a business depression
in 1857 lasting 12 months.
There was a business depression
in 1869 lasting 8 months.
There was a business depression
in 1873 lasting 30 months.
There was a business depression
in 1884 lasting 22 months.
