A. Kane. Throughout almost every month of this year the 1941 mark has been higher than the three preceding years. A gain of approximately 62 per nV cent, exceptionally high, is indicated during March of this year over th same month in 1940. A total of 3675 5 cars were loaded during March of this year as compared to 2275 during 1910. However, March in 1910 is the lowest out of four years. 193S, 1939, 1940 and 1941. ; The line on the graph has not et been drawn out to include the. month of April, but it is expected from gen-- ; oral indications that due to the strike, April of 1941 will go far below any oth'T month in the four years shown as far as coal loading is coucerned. Even during the strike, other rail-- I road business remained good. ; 4-- NEW CARBON AIRPORT may Thursday, Pr RIO GRANDE LOADING !

The questionnaires will be mailed at the rate of about 20 a day until all are .sent. Twenty-fou- r hundred registered, but at first questionnaires were sent out only td fiOO of these.
