After reviewing pool train ar- rangements with the Canadian Pa- ciflc Railway, Mr. Hungerford stat- ed additional economies through pool passenger train services were anticipated for the coming year.

The railways continue to suffer from highway competition, the O N. R. president added. "The com- psny has during the year continued its study of different methods oi meeting competitive forms of trans-

. In the highway trucking field the railway is at present cs:- ryipg on three diflerent methdds of operation in an endeavor to de- termino which method is best suited to the railways interest. In all three experiments charges for the colieding and delivery of the freight are included in the tariff. Bo far each oi’ the experiments being con- ducted to regain highway truck traf- fic has succeeded in some degree, and the enperiments will be cen- tinued until the most satisfactory‘ solution of the problem is found."
