situation equally as acute al in the great
Northwest. Barre granite manufactur-
ers stand IN urgent need Of relief az has
been told before and as was explained
10 the Vermont legislature few weeks
Iago. This need i the sharper because
on top Of the general lack df cars
throughout the country there comes, for
Barre at least, q very great increase in
the output Of the product. The Times
is pleased to state that the Barre rail
road, which first handles the stone, Is
making efforts to. bring relief BY the
purchase Of additional equipment. But
the delivery Of the ears cannot be made
before next spring, which means that
the immediate relief is not possible from
that source. Nevertheless the shippers
viii appreciate the effort q this railroad
to be better equipped for Ike contin-
gencies.
