Superiority of railway for long-distance and bulk freight and passenger traffic is well established; motor-truck and bus competition is not a factor in those fields; extensive ownership of automobiles and large mileage of improved highways have resulted in loss of most of local passenger travel of railways, except in vicinity of largest cities; bus business promises to increase if better service can be given and if cost of operation can be reduced; recommended restrictions on motor-vehicle sizes, weights, and speeds; equitable principles for interstate regulation. See discussion in nos. 6 and 9, Aug. and Nov. 1927, pp. 1319-1328 and 2331-2335.
