The better fuel economy of the diesel engine, Meyer explains, in creases mobility since it reduces problems of fuel supply in re mote areas and over areas of dif ficult terrain, but diesels present speciai problems of starting under very cold conditions. As part of the department's re search in the field and a survey recently completed by Meyer, a rather complete collection and in dex of pertinent publications in the field has been built up.

Speaking under the title, "Les sons of Soviet Transportation for Underdeveloped Areas," Hunter stated that although Russia has fewer miles of railroads, its rail roads carry more freight for in dustry and are more profitable than the United States system. The Soviet railroads carry rela tively few passengers, Hunter added. He traveled in the USSR in 1957. The people use busses and trolleys. In Russia, he said, there is no competition between rail road lines since the govern ment controls them. Thus all the profit goes to one place—the government. "Highways in the USSR are in the position of the United States in the early 20's," Hunter said. He attributed this to the fact the Russian .consumer didn't show a desire for roads while the Amer ican wanted to move around the country in an automobile The Soviet Union doesn't use l water transportation because its rivers are frozen 9 months of the year, in many cases, he said. Hunter's suggestions for un derdeveloped countries such as China an d India centered around the efficiency of the So viet freight transportation sys tem. In the U.S., he said there is a lapse of 15 days between the loading of railroad cars with freight and the reloading. In the USSR, he said, the figure is six days. China has adopted the Soviet rapid turn about and reduced its time between loads to three days, Hunter added. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN.
