H. Aishton, president of the American Railway Association, told the tenth, annual convention of the Transportation Division that assoat the closing session toHay in Chicago. "The railroads," said Mr. Aishton, 'have overcome great obstacles in the bast few years, Pate struggle conlinues.

We have the question of water transportation, travel on the highways, air transportation, all either just in their infancy or just resurrected from long sleep, as in the case of water- NAYS. Always of Use line of progress. Now a Real Science "Notwithstanding all these things, the railroads must still continue to be the backbone of transportation in this country, and the answer to the portation questions continually arising to take advantage of every means developed through research, adaptation, practical experience and co-operation between yourselves leading to better service, more economical service, more efficient service and safer service and in the end the public, who will decide and determine what form of transporration they use, will go to that form which affords them the greatest satisaction. "You are gathered here today in our annual convention for the purpose of adjusting yourselves to the period of time that may have occurred since your last meeting.

It is such meetings AS this that have enabled the railroads to stay, not with progress, but just a pace or two in front. I like the way you work. You find the facts. You filter the facts. But most of all you face those facts with a determination that railroad service will not be shoved from "And even though rail transportation has existed for 100 years, it is in only the last twenty-five years that a real science has been made out of it: It took seventy-five years, or until 1902.

Union New Haven Trust Company was appointed receiver of the Parker-Smith Company, investment dealers in mortgages and mortArthur notes. Ellis by this Superior afternoon. Court The Judge motion receiver was filed by Attornel General Benjamin W.

Alling, who yesterday filed complaint alleging that the company had "committed fraud upon the public" in its business dealings. Counsel the company officially said that while company had done $25,000,000 worth of business, no noteholder had ever lost a single cent. The Second National Bank certified notes which were issued against mortgages. The company's preliminary statement showed assets of $1,088,000 and debts about $500,000. But the assets "were frozen," a condition which coundicament." brought about its present pre- FEEL WOOL DECLINE HAS BEEN CHECKED Buying Continues in the Range States, Dealers Using Caution Sales in Fleece Wool States Are Slower, the Trade Reports Special to The Inquirer.

BOSTON, May wool prices are no stronger here, dealers feel that the decline has been checked. Ohio three eighths has sold at 45 cents, which value. Other fleece grades are unchanged. Mill buyers are taking French combing territory at 95-97 clean. Other territory grades are very dull.

Very little business is being done in woolen or mill sorts. In foreign wool River Plate wools attract more attention than Australian Merinos, but prices continue easy. Dealers as a rule continue cautious, buying new wool in the range States and Texas, but some are paying higher prices than warranted by Boston conditions. In Texas it is estimated that sixty per cent. of the twelve-month wool has been bought at 31 to 35 cents, and a larger proportion of eightmonth at prices almost as high.

Buying of twelve-month continues steadily, but growers are refusing many bids on eight-month. Texas samples here indicate high quality and condition for most of this year's clip, which encourages belief that it can be turned over profitably, despite last year's sad experience. A scramble is anticipated for the best clips remaining unsold in Texas. In range States active buying is reported in Utah, Eastern Oregon, Eastern Idaho and Wyoming. Only one clip is reported sold in Montana.

In Oregon buyers pay 26-28 cents for fine and 30-33 cents for medium. In Utah prices are fairly strong on recent levels. In the Idaho triangle cents is paid for good medium wools, 36 cents for one choice clip and 29-30 cents for fine. In Wyoming buying has spread to the Caspar region and north, prices ranging from 28 to 32 cents. Two clips are reported sold at 34 cents.

It is estimated that 20 per cent. of the new wool in elevan range States, or some 35,000,000 pounds, has been bought. Buying in fleece wool States is slower, but in Ohio and Michigan considerable wool is being secured at 30-32 cents for fine and 35-37 cents for medium. U. 5.

YARDS BUILDING 219 STEEL VESSELS Ships Under Construction Totaled 274,100 Gross Tons on May 1 From The Inquirer Bureau. WASHINGTON, May ship yards were building or under contract to build for private ship owners 219 steel vessels of 274,100 gross tons on May 1, compared with 179 steel vessels of 179,840 gross tons on April 1, the Bureau of Navigation, Department of Commerce stated today.

LOW COAL STOCKS Hard and Soft Coal Supply Least in Four Years special to The Inquirer.

NEW YORK, May the coal market, the National Association of Purchasing Agents, says that on May 1 total stocks of anthracite and bituminous coal in industries in the United States and Canada amounted to approximately 33,500,000 tons. This is the lowest that these stocks have been over the past four years, the closest to these figures being June 1, 1926, when stocks reached the low point of 36,000,000 tons. This low figure is due to the fact that certain classifications, such ns railroads, electric utilities and coal gas plants and other industries are running lower in their stock figures than in former years. Consumption declined nearly 000 tons in April as compared with March, being 37,750,000 million tons. This was due to the seasonal decline in the heating load.

However, the consumption for April is 2.500.000 tons higher than in April, 1928, The number of days' supply of coal on hand is twenty-seven days, which is the lowest number of days' supply on hand since April 1, 1926, when there was twenty-six days' supply on hand. Cucumber Crop to Be Larger CHICAGO, May 30 (A. cucumbers Epicures whose taste runs to are in for a treat. The Government Bureau of Agricultural Economics today reported this year's cucumber crop in the four early producing States probably would be 50 per cent. larger than last year.

Alabama, South Carolina. Louisiana and Georgia are the leaders. and aside from large gains anticipated in other States these will probably market 1,500,000 hampers. ELECTRICAL RAYS TO DAZZLE PUBLIC Sunburst on Atlantic City's Convention Hall Like Aurora Borealis Will Herald 52d Annual Meeting of National Electric Light Assn, An electrical sunburst, whose rays will make it possible read a newspaper twenty miles distant will be the stellar feature in the programme of illumination for light's golden jubilee, the fifty-second annual convention of the National Electric Light Association, at Atlantic City next week.

FEARS FOR CANAL IN RAIL RATE GUT Would Render Panama Channel Useless, Says Shippers' Head SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, May 30 (A. S. McCarthy, president of the Intermediate Rate Association, declared here that approval of the South, ern Pacific Railroad's application for lower freight rates between At ntie and Pacific Coasts would have the effect of rendering the Panama Canal useless. The rate association, of which McCarthy is the head, is an organization of shippers in ten Western States. "Not only is the Southern Pacific's application for fourth section relief to institute lower freight rates between Atlantic and Pacific Coast cities via the Morgan Steamship line and the Sunset Gulf Railroad route a menace to intermountain territory, but to the entire nation as well," he told the Utah Shippers Traffic Association.

"Approval of the application would have the effect of destroying part our valuable merchant marine, the intercoastal lines and rendering the Panama Canal useless," McCarthy said. APRIL IRON AND STEEL EXPORTS AT HIGH MARK Total of 277,580 Gross Tons Make Record Month So Far This Year Special to The Inquirer. WASHINGTON, May exports of iron and steel products reached the highest level of the year with a total of 277,580 gross tons, the Department of Commerce reports.

The daily import movement also increased to 1811 tons from 1702 tons, but was still well below the February average of 2077 tons.

Haynes, international president of the Durant Motor Company, who arrived in Toronto today from Detroit.

Mr. Haynes said the Diesel engine would be more efficient and more economical on fuel than the gasoline engine, as it required only crude Carburators and electric ignition would be eliminated he Washing Machine Breaks Record With a probable production of more than 1,220,000 washing machines in 1929 a record year in this industry is predicted by E.
