A widespread cutting down of ex-
penses is going on.

and transferred all the necessary
working force to Raleigh, at the
same time cutting down the force
at the Raleigh shops. All the Of
fees that a be done away with

put on other officials. This was the
reason for the abolition of several

its employees. Several trains have
also been discontinued.
