questioned.

had a general discussion Of rlans for the

officials confidently said they could

t~urbance 10 the regular passenger traffic.
Moving Supplies Only Problem.
Tho only possibility OF r. hitch seen
was in the transportation of supplies.
This might arise from the freight tanglo
that has perplexed the Eastern lines. but
as the railroads are getting free from
this congestion the traffic managers
thought that they would have enough un-

We should take them to Buffalo and

For the rush across the Eastern
