NEW YORK USES T AND SUBWAY; CHICAGO STICKS TO SURFACE
(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, N. Y.. Dec. 2 More than half New York City's "six million" travel on subways and elevated lines, but Chicago still sticks largely 1o surface cars, while London passengers divide their patronage almost equally between busses, trolleys and rapid transit system. Figures revealing these statistics of travel in three of the world's largest cities were presented by experts at a Fathering here of transportation authorities who are meeting monthly to ".iscuss New York's great transportation problems.
It was shown that 6,750.000 persons j
live in the metropolitan district within a twenty mile radius of Fifth Avenue at Thirty-fourth street. Only Third on Surface. About 2.300,000 of them live on Manhattan Island and another 2,000,000 flock into Ix)wer Manhattan every week day. Fifty-four per cent of these ride subways and elevated lines, 35 per cent patronize surface cars, ferries haul 5 per cent, commutation steam trains, four per cent, and 2 per cent travel in busses. In Chicago surface cars carry 73 per cent of the city's passenger traffic, rapid transit lines get 21 per cent and the other 6 per cent travel in suburban steam trains. In London the ratios are 33 per cent in busses, 27 per cent in surface cars and 40 per cent in rapid transit trains.

FRENCH COMMUNISTS PERISH IN WRECK (By Associated Press) PARIS, Dec. 2. Three French Communist leaders who participated in the recent Communist congress at Moscow, have perished in the wreck of a sailing boat which they leased at Mourmansk for the return trip to France, nays a dispatch from Stockholm. The three men who were lost, it is said, were Mm. Vergeat, Lepetit and Lefevre.
SOLID SOUTH
(Continued from Page One) was sound and that no assent could have been made to the plea of the farmers and others for treasury aid in holding their goods for higher prices without violation of both economics and morals. This belief was shared by many of the very politicians who made the pleas. Privately they said
frankly that hey did not believe In what their constituents were asking but that hey had to go through the motions for political reasons. The belief was also shared by some farmers. Just after Secretary Houston issued this formal statement srivine his
reasons for his refusal to do what cer
tain cotton raisers had demanded he should do the following letter was written to him by a cotton farmer who lives near the little town of Forney, Texas: "Mr. Secretary: "I beg just one minute of your time to express to you my appreciation of your answer to the farmers" as per inclosed clipping. "I am a farmer I have never been anything else nor have I any interest in anything else. I came here from Appomottox and rode the old horse that General Grant, in the kindness of his heart give me, with a scooter plough I opened a furrow, and my wife sowed the seed, with the spring

winds whipping her skirts. We made a crop and have been at it ever since. "This year we 'I always include my children', have gathered over one thousand bales of cotton. I think I know something of this business. I think I know all the ups and downs of farming, and I want to say to you this: I had rather sell my cotton at 5 cents as I have often done, than to have my government bankrupted by any such foolish schemes. "The trouble with the farmers is mainly extravagance; I can live on what some of my neighbors pay for gasoline. We only need to cut down expenses and to work and do not de
pend so much on having it done. Sincerely," I tried to persuade Secretary Houston to let me print the name of this farmer, who is so sound in morals, economics and sentiment. Secretary Houston did not feel at liberty to do this. But the neighbors of this farmer in Forney, Texas, ought to have no difficulty in recognizing him, and some one ought to see to it that he gets more than a local glory.
