Last Saturday 2o.Gl6 cars loaded with

The extraordinary movement #

shippers for more cars. Except for
coal cars. there Is a greater demani

mani Is not confined to any particular
section, but comes from all parts tf
the country All the railroads are
making special efforts to expedite the
movement of trains so as to enable
shippers to utilize to the greatest ex
tent possible present supply of cars.
All the car building plants in the
country are working to their full ca
pacity, but they can furnish only A
small percentage of the number the
railroads need. Therefore the rail
roads are doing their utmost to meet
the demands of shippers by moving
cars as rapidly as possible and mini
mizing the delay in yards and termi

The Rock Island system also made
a new record last month for loaded
car movement. hauling 10000 cars
