HARHIBBURG TELEGRAPH RAILROAD NEWS SOME FIGURES ON RAILROADS Federal Administration Shows Surplus During August; Ex penses Are to Come The government finished $16,000,- 000 ahead on the operations of the railroads of the country in August, according to the director generttl. The amount, however, would have been wiped out by increased pay recently granted shopmen had the accumulated back pay been paid during the month. The increase al lowed amounts to $4,000,000 a month and dates from May, making a total of $16,000,000 in back pay due shopmen. The net loss to the government for the first eight months of the year, including August, but not in cluding the back pay due the shop men, is $274,557,854, which leaves an actual net loss of more than $290,000,000. Further gains in operating rev enue and earnings are expected as a result of the greatly increased amount of traffic over the roads. In February the roads failed to earn the government guarantee by more than $65,000,000, which was cut to $22,000,000 in June. In July the gov ernment had its first surplus of nearly $2,000,000. The $16,000,000 back pay due shopmen and $4,000,000 additional for the current month probably will be included in September expendi tures, which will reduce greatly the possible effect on the government of the loss of more than $275,000,000 for the first seven months of the year. One of the things that helped the August showing was that during the month many shopmen were out on an authorized strike, thus reducing operating expenses. Railroad administration figures show that the volume of freight traf fic has reached nearly that of re cent years and that passenger traf fic is in excess of that of last year.

On the long, steady pull or a sudden rise in the road ahead, give 'er the gas and she'll make it on high—with tried-and-true Atlantic in the tank. For, hill-hesitation has been extracted from Atlantic Gasoline in the making. The formula demands that. Yes, Sir! A tankful of Atlantic Gasoline is a tankful of terrific power, challenging the throttle to go the limit. When you want power, you press the accelerator and Atlantic delivers instantly. An organization of refiners with fifty years' expe rience and a conscience sees to it that the vaunted uniformity of Atlantic Gasoline is an actuality, never deviated from. Test this out for yourself. Pull up along the curb where you see the Atlantic sign and tell the man to crank up. , Then when the steep climb looms up, give *er the gas!
