OVERCOMING CONGESTION.

While that is the one end for which
they should be striving, it is crafty
ing that the railroads are gradually
getting to the point where they expect
to remove certain of the restrictions
on the movement of freight and as
fast as possible lift the embargo en-
tirely. This is no easy task but pro-
gress to that end means something,
and there is still as great need as
ever for the shippers AMI for those to
whom goods are consigned, to lend
their cooperation.
The speedy loading and unloading
of cars means much when it is claim
| ed that if the cars were loaded
and unloaded promptly it would be
equivalent to an increase of ten per
| cent in their number as far as the
service is concerned. Another effort
| being made is to have shippers fill
every car to its capacity, which it can
be readily appreciated would be of
great assistance in moving shipments
and therefore in relieving the conges-
| ton, and the benefit of full instead of
| half carloads operates both to the ad-
| vantage of those dependent upon trans
portation lines as well as to the rail-
| roads. Waste of space is as bad as
| waste of time and lack of equipment.
To a large extent it has been real
lied that the holding of cars on sid
ings or in private yards for the sake
of obtaining the storage room, even
though demurrage charges are paid
has contributed as nothing else to the
tying UP of the railroads. Individual
efforts to overcome this feature Of
freight congestion have accomplished
much and with a proper consideration
of the part which such shipper and
consignee can play in affording relic
the day will be FASTENED when the re-
strictions which it has been necessar!
: to impose will be removed.

time to look about, so as he had walk

ing he had chosen n book as he passed.
1 suppose he shut his eyes in the pro-
cess of selection, because the volume
he had brought me was by an African
