Railroad Man Says New Bentf Should Ask For Eest A. cA, . Has to Offer. SUGGESTS ROUTE TO WTLSONT Building by Way of Klnston andC Snow Hill New Bern's Bit Volume of Businesa "How much do you suppose the rail road business of New Bern ia worth per year?" a railroad man said recent ly to a JOURNAlX reporter. i'Over . half million dollars', he said answering bis own question when the reporter was unable was unable to give an in telligent answer. "Believe me", he added, "that is an amount which is not to be sneezed at and In view of this great amount of business. New Bern being the heaviest contributor to the support of the Nor folk Southern Railroad, it occurs to me that there ought not to be any great trouble in getting the Coast Line to build a line from here to the North ward." He advonced an idea as to the route of the proposed Northern outlet for the Coast Line that has not generally been thought of here in connection with the matter. The idea has been that the best route v. ould be either to build from here to the Vandemere branch or from bere to the Scotland Neck branch. But this gentleman said that while New Bern was about it, it ought to ask for the best the Coast Line had it the shop and that was a connection with the main line at Wilson, bnilding by way of Kinston and Snow Hill. He said that this would be a much more' desirable plan than either of the other two that had been proposed. He expressed the conviction that the Coast Line would be very glad to come into New Bern and get a larger share of its business than with its present facilities it is able to secure, its pro portion of the total beiig relatively very small. , BETTER SERVICE Citizens living at and near Vanccbo-- ro are making preparations to present a petition to the Chamber of Com-, merce of this city, asking that this or ganization make an effort to indncethe officials of the Norfolk-Southern Rajl- ' way Company to make. a change in the schedule of the trains running be tween this city and Washington.
