Htuinless steel, Htroamllno trains, one of which pawned through Ctuudeii last March, are going to undertake an unprecedented dally mil of 862 miles each beginning June 2. the Burlington Hullroad announced In Chicago today. In doing wo they will replace the equivalent of four steam trains. This record breaking mileage, which la in excess of the performance of any other locomotive now in daily operation, haw been made necessary, the announcement said, because the trains have been unable to meet the passenger traffic they have created singe tlmy were placed In service between Chicago, Minneapolis und St. I'aul on April 28. Alter the first of the Zephyr Twins hud been taken on an exhibition tour over the Seaboard Air Line from Richmond Incite east and west coasts of Florida, W wus placed in service with lis running mate on the ChicagoTwin Cities route with each train making a one-way run of 4.11 miles daily. I'mler fie new schedule each <?i i in- Zephyrs will make a round-trip daily. I In- decision to inaugurate litis unpri-ei-iideiiled schedule was made when, after litre*, weeks, It developed that the trains were not only carrying capacity IoiuIh bul were unable to accommodate un average of 42 persons a day who sought to buy tickets So great is the demand that the two trains have been booked to capacity two or three days In advance. Results of a questionnaire conducted among 2,1 D2 passengers showed that 21 per cent of them would otherwise have traveled by automobile, bus or airplanes, according to Albert Cotsworth, Jr., passenger truffle manager. Forty-five per cent would likewise have used an overnight train, and the others would have used another day train. There were practically no ' curiosity riders," Mr. Cotsworth said, because the Burlington has operated short 11-excursion rides between the regular daily trips and those who wished to ride the trains simply for the experience of it have chosen these excu rslons. Mr. Cotsworth said the dlesel-powcred Zephyrs have maintained the almost unbelievable record for economy of operation that was established when the first of the Twins was taken on its exhibition tour over the Soabourd through Virginia, North Caroline. South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. That run from the plant of tlii- ICdward (i. Budd Manufacturing Company, in Philadelphia, builder of tin* trains, through (lie Southland and back to Philadelphia, totaled 2,861 miles. Tlie total cost of fuel oil was but $42.72. If the New Deal will provide The News ami Courier with two addition* i al editors. paying their salaries from l'WA, RFC or other capitalized li tter I agencies, The News and Courier will promise to use them exclusively in reading the propaganda that tlie government sends to it. and if it will provide live other editors, it will employ them m reading the propaganda that numerous corporation and private agencies send it. its present staff, if it undertake to read what comes to the newspaper, will be forced to give up writing?and we are not saying that tin- public would be the sufferer. The franking privilege should be abolished for the sake of economy, hut, also, it should be abolished to abate a nuisance. The propaganda of the private concerns is greater in volume, hut they pay for it News and Courier. The eagerness of the individuals to set up iu the liquor business is much in i tidciicr.

In one of its advertisements Seagram's says: 'Drinking ami <1 riving do not mix." The advertisement proceeds: "Liquor has no place In the front seat of un automobile . . . Alcohol and gaaoliue do not mix ... It is very much to our self interest to see that the privilege of drinking Is not abused . . . Whiskey ia a luxury which should be treated as such, It should bo taken in moderation?and only in its proper place . . . Neither whiskey nor any other alcoholic liquor has any place at the wheel of an automobile." This shows that some of the manufacturers of liquor fully realize the danger of letting an iutoxlcated man drive a powerful automobile on crowded highways or streets. We hope the law enforcement agoucios of South Carolinn will have convictions just as decided on this matter. Any one who tries to drive un automobile in South Carolina while under the influence of liquor should be arrested and put in jail because such a person is endangering the lives of other people who have a right to bo safe when traveling to and fro. Law enforcement officers should likewise be on the alert to prevent liquor-hogs from making the streets and public places objectionable to lawabiding* and decent citizens. If the police will promptly arrest and take I off the streets or out of circulation the first few people who become objectionably drunk and disorderly they will , set a good precedent and will do a great deal to prevent the consumption of whiskey becoming a great nuisance to other people. Thereare many people who can drink in moderation and whose drinking does very little harm to other people. Those who cannot so control themselves should be made to .stay out of public places where their drunkenness srill he objectionable and distasteful to others exercising their rightful privilege of walking the streets or circulating in public places. ?Orangeburg Times-Democrat.
