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.

Planning For Big Campaign
Safety boosters for the Philadel

railroad conferred this afternoon on I
plans for the big nation-wide no- |
accident drive. Preliminary work
started to-day, ten days ahead of

Give 'or the Gas!
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!
