E. W. Beatty Urges Consolidation 0f The Two Sys- tems As A Means Of Effecting‘ Econo- mies.

(Canadian Press)

TORONTO, Jan. l6. - Canada's greatest individual item of waste is its railways, declared E. W. Beatiy, K.C., President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, in today urging consolidation of ilie two systems as a means oi effecting economies. “Canada has a population of about 10,000,000 people. It has approxim- ately 42,000 milcs of railway, or 236 people per mile of railway, fewer people per mile than nny other civ- ilized countryv," Mr. Beatty told a meeting of the Canadian club. “It has several thousands ofmiles par- alleled by other mi‘es,, serving the same ‘territory and reaching the same terminals. This constitutes our great individual item of waste.

"In my opinion," he maintained, “we must not only limit our capital expenditures to those that are es- sential or that will produce a reas- onable- retilrn in the near future, but we must 'l"oduco our present mileage to accord Wl'll the actual needs of transportation and of na- tional development. We nnist at the same iiiuc Plllllllizlll‘ all expen- ditiires designed in secure traiflc’ for

a competing railway rather than provide _a necessary service for the public.

“These resillls can. in lllt view I lake, only be attained if we 00115101- idatc our two railways into one {vs- iem ivith one management." he said.

Crash-Proof v Plane Plans , Are Completed

BERLIN. Juli. 16.—(A.P.)—Pliln5 for a crash-proof propeller aero- plane which he hopes to try out sometime this year have been com- pleted, Adolf ltohrbach told associ- ates today. Ile said that he had spent two ycrirs in cxperilnentation,

Rohrbach said that the claim that the aeroplane is crash-proof rests on a technical control of centrifugal forces which operates in such man- ner that sudden manoeuvres can- not ovorstrain the machine.

The plane is all-metal, powered with an ordinary aeroplane motor, but has movable wings operating on a transverse axis which permits of the generation o_f both lifting and propelling power.
