WILL ELIMINATE
SIX BILLION
SLOPS
Washington, 'March 4-—The Un
ited states FuU Administration has
had under consideration for some
time past the question of putting
into effect "skip-stop" schedules
on uroan and interurhan electric
railways. No decision has he en
reacned yet, but information up
on 'he desirability; of the project,
the possible saving of coal, etc.,
is being gathered.
If is proposed that stopping j
places for electric railways shall
be spaced so as not to exceed eight
®er mile in urban districts and Bix
3or mile in suburban, tlistricts. On
Intei urban linos the regular pass
enger stopping places shall not ex
seed four per mile. Where safe
'v stops are necessary they; shall
be combined, when practicable,
with passenger stops.
It is estimated that the "skip
s'op" arrangement as I proposed
would eliminate six billion stops
ner year, which along with' pro
posed heating regulations fpr cars
would mean a saving of 1,500,000
tons of coal per year. This quan
t'ty of coal will mee* the fuel
needs of 300,000 average families.
Another advantage will be to re
lieve, in large measure, the con
gesti 'u of the overloaded stree
railway systems, and provide quick
er service. /
