Udel!, Publisher and m Editor Outstanding devaTenu in transportation during recent years have been made by railroads. Faced with competition on three fronts and in three phases of serviceâ€"airlines for speed, bus systems for economy, and private automobiles for convenâ€" ienceâ€"the railroads have made great advances toward bringâ€" ing their service into step with a progressing world. _ > These improvements have resulted advantageously to the public in the matter ofâ€"extended travel between various parts of the country. Fast streamliners, operating on twentyâ€"four schedules, have reduced the time differential between air and land travel. Reduced rates, and on some lines extremely reasonâ€" able dining car prices, have made rail travel less expensive. Convenience features, such as provision of nurses â€"and stewardesses, m‘l care for women traveling with small chilâ€" dren, and luxu lounging cars, are additional steps in meetâ€" ing ruinous competition, x 7 fs ol oanat. However, in the of renovation a vital branch of railâ€" roading has medvec} only scant attention in this area at least. This is the matter of suburban serviceâ€"the commutation travel from (mlumto outlmc towns such as Highland Park. Alâ€" though the last year seen some lmgtovement, the addition of trains and speeding up of schedules during rush periods, the service is subltsnthdy as it was a decade or even two decades 70, before the process of modernization seen in other branches of service was begun. 5 5 _ Perhaps the commuters themselves are responsible for this. They have been largely passive in their objections, have tolâ€" erated outmoded service, or else undertaken the added expense of drivivnfi their own.cars. In some other cities, commuters have banded tofether for their own benefit, providing themâ€" selves with special accommodations at their own expense. â€"So successful was the conference sponsored just a year ago this month by the young people‘s clubs of the various Catholic parishes of Lake county that the affair has been made an annual event, the date for the second conference being set for Sunday afternoon, May 23, at the Holy Child high school. The citizens of Highland Park and other communities on the North Shore should consider seriously the problem of obâ€" taining better transportation facilities for this important area. Pr(;zmsive and forward looking in other respects, Highland Park is entitled to the best in transportation facilities. Catholic Y.P.C. . Of County Plan Annual Conclave Reynunutlvel of the parishes in attendance at last year‘s conferâ€" ence were enthusiastic over the reâ€" sults.
