CHARGE
RAISED To S.
PER DAY
It Is Believed Raise Will Make
the Car Supply More
Plentiful.

In an attempt to make the car short
age less pronounced, it is said the
railroads may put in effect new re-
ciprocal demurrage arrangement, I'M
der which each raildroad will be re-
quired to pay IS day for each car
belonging to another line which It
detains beyond certain period In
cases where the shipper is responsible
for the delay, the railroad will make
him pay the penalty, II such rule.
goes into effect. 1t may be the roads
individually will also increase the.
penalties for the detention of their
own cars on their own lines.
1t is asserted that the shortage of
cars, which is always complained of
at this time Of the year. is due MOI.
only to the fact that the available
cars are not used to the best purpose
1t is said they are employed too large
ly by shippers for storage purposes.
A charge of 81 a day is now made,
where car is kept beyond the fixed
free storage period. but even this. it
is found. does not cause shippers to
unload with due promptitude. And
then the railroads themselves are
willing to pay the 81 for the use of
the car, for during the rush season
each car is worth several times that
amount in earning capacity.
An enlargement of warehouse ac-
commodations in all parts of the
country is suggested as another rem
edy to prevent the annual shortage.
1t is believed that if shippers were
more heavily penalized for holdinA
cars beyond the free storage pedi0d..
more and larger warehouses would be,
built at all large traffic centers. One
traffic official says that while more
extensive use Of warehouses would
relieve the situation, the complete
prevention of car shortages was I'M
practible.
There is and always will be-" he
said. vastly more freight moving in
the fall and winter than in the spring
and summer. Consequently, the rail-
roads must either have more equip
ment than is needed for the business
in summer, or less than is needed in
winter To buy enough easily to han
die the winter traffic would mean the,
investment of vast amount of cap
ital. on which there would be no re-
turn large part of the year. and no
good business man would do that"
