NEW ERA IN TRANSPORTATION

COAST

GDy Associated Press.B
WASHINGTON. Feb Ito meet
the new traffic conditions which have
arisen with the opening of the Pan
anna canal, the interstate commerce
commission has permitted transcon-
tinental railroads to establish certain
commodity rates from eastern points
to Pacific coast terminals lower than
those to intermediate points in the
intermountain territory. The com
mission says: Whatever may have
been the degree of competition in
the past by rail or water carriers, we
are Witnessing the beginning Of a
new era in transportation on the
Atlantic and Pacific To secure any
considerable percentage to this coast,
coast traffic rates on many commodi-
ties must be established by rail lines
materially lower than now existing !

GERMAN SOCIALISTS
Do EXCELLENT WORK
COOPERATIVE ORGANIZATIONS
COVERING A LARGE FIELD
OF OPERATIONS

BERLIN, Feb. 1l.-Co-operative so
eieties In Germany have done excel
lent work among their members and
their dependents during the six
months of the war. over five and
half million people. mostly of the
working classes. belong to these so
eieties, which possess total capital
of $l,5Q0,00O,0OO and cover large
field of operations, the chief of which
is the running Of supply, stores. The
endeavor OF these supply stores has
been directed toward keeping down
prices of food stuffs and this has
been of great assistance to the fam
lilies of those members who have
been called to the colors. The stores,
in consequence of the encouragement
they have given to thrifty people to
save in time of peace, have found
that in most cases they have not had
to break their rule calling for ready
money settlement for purchases. 9th
er cooperative organizations, such as
cooperative building societies, have
experienced more trouble in collect
ing the installments towards paying
of the cost Of construction of work
mems houses, but this difficulty has
generally been overcome by the aid
of the cooperative banks, which
grant loans at small interest, The
cooperative workshops have found 1t
difficult to obtain raw materials, but
those which have undertaken mill
tary contracts have been exceedingly
prosperous.

MASTERPIECES ARE
NOW FOUND WANTING
NATIONAL GALLERY COLLECTION
LACKS ITS FAvoRiTE OLD
PAINTINGS

LONDON, Feb. 11.-Visitors to the
National gallery who remember it as
second only to the Louvre halt with
bewilderment when they enter ii
now, looking in vain for their fayorite
masterpieces. Its walls are still
plentifully hung with paintings, but
the whole collection is immeasurably
inferior to that of six months ago
Gone are the works of Raphael and
da Vinci and Holbein; only one or
two works of Rembrandt and Rubens
remain. In fact, most of the real
treasures of the magnificent collec-
lions have been taken away for safe
keeping in underground vaults where
neither bombs nor conflagration can
reach them In some cases-notably
that of the priceless Raphael Madon-
na-the empty frames remain in
place, awaiting the return of peace.
Another wartime feature of the
gallery is the sand bin of shiny gal
vanized iron, which occupies prom
inent position in the center of every
room. The sand is for use in case
of fire.
A reminder of suffragette activity
of the days before the war is seen
in the hideous glass cases which
surround a few wall spaces in some
of the main galleries. One of the few
embrandts which remains in the
building is thus housed, the glass
frame extending from floor to cell
ing, and preventing approach within
three or four feet of the canvas.

RED CROSS PHYSICIAN ACTS AS
MEDIATOR, WHEN COME

By Associated Press.J

tBy Associated PreBB.I
LONDON, Feb 1.-THE Nish cor
respondent Of the Near East states
that during the Austrian occupation
of Belgrade DR.. Ryan, head of the
American Red Cross mission, acted
as mediator between the invaders
and the inhabitants of the Serbian
capital
The correspondent writes as fol-
lows: "Dr. Ryan, | am told, exerted
himself in every possible way in the
cause of humanity and rendered great
service to Serbia during those trying
days. The American Red Cross mis-
sion is still carrying on its good
work in Belgrade, with a staff of two
American and two Serbian doctors,
twelve American lady nurses. and
twentyfour Serbian nurses. There
are also in Belgrade five Serbian hos
pitfalls. which during the Austrian oc-
cupation we're placed under the pro-
lection of DR.. Ryan; and he assures
me that none of them nor the Ameri-
can Red Cross mission was in any
way interfered with by the Aus
trians."

WAR HAS NOT AFFECTED
GERMAN MEAT SUPPLY
BUT ECONOMY IN THIS RESPECT
WILL BE NEEDED IN
FUTURE

tHy Associated Press.D
LONDON, Feb. 11.-An authority
on the frozen meat trade is of the
opinion that up TO the present Ger
manys meat supply has not been
seriously affected by the war, but as
in all the other belligerent nations,
economy there in this respect will
be necessary OF the general effects
of the war on European meat sup
plies he says
"In France the hostile occupation
of considerable tracts of territory has
certainly tended to curtail the guam
tity of meat available, but the re-
naming stocks undoubtedly have
provided disproportionately heavy
killings, otherwise prices would have
advanced more than has been the
case. Probably the larger proportion
of the 100000 head of cattle in the
eastern provinces, available in July
last, are permanently lost to France,
as meat producers. On the other
hand, France, having removed import
duties and restrictions, has already
imported large quantities of frozen
meat, and has arranged for still
larger imports in the near future.
This change of policy is so marked,
and its effect likely to be so far
reaching, that 1t can hardly fail to
Influence materially the course OF the
whole frozen meat trade for some
time to come. Formerly France kept
out frozen meat to protect her farm
ers. Now that country is admitting
frozen meat, not only to supply mill
tary requirements, but also to protect
her Aocks and herds from undue de
pletion.
