I.—How rfiuch value will any sort of railroad bonds have 68 years hence? The financial straits of the roads are a matter of common talk at pre sent. Not are the companies pinched by the depression. Transportation methods, at least in considerable part. | are changing. The auto bus and the auto truck are cutting heavily intoj both their passenger and freight busi- j ness. They even feel the effect of air competition. Waterways threaten them. The rail lines, owners and holders of their securities are trying to offset their rivals' advantages by taxation handicaps and troublesome, expensive regulation, and maybe they will have a measure of success for awhile. But can they stave off progress for two generations 0 If not. will there still be any railroads in the year 2000? And if the railroads are extinct them, how can their bonds of today he worth anything.

I.—Agal nthe demand has been made that the State take over all the indebtedness of the coun ties for schools and roads, which would amount to approximately $176.- 000,000. This time the demand comes from President W. Warren Watson, of Hyde county, president of the State Farmers’ and Farm Women's Conven tion, in session here this week at State College.
