Canadian RailWays Are Torn Up toBe
 Relaid In France
(By Review Leased Wire)

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec. 1S.- Canada has begun to tear up 1000 miles of railroad to meet the needs of the war on the western front in France and Belgium, 1t was learned tonight. The rails will be shipped to France. where they will be re-laid to facilitate the movements of troops, guns, munitions and supplies from French ports to the fighting lines.
 Laborers are now at work tearing up 300 miles of government railroad sidings, and it has been decided to re move 220 miles of rails between Ed monton and the Pacific Coast. where the Canadian Northern and Grand Trunk Pacific run parallel. The traf- fic will be thrown upon one of these lines.
 It is expected that some of the rails to be sent to France will be obtained from the trans-continental railway and the Hudson Bay Railway. It is stated that twenty miles of rails will load one steamer. One cargo already is on the way to the seaboard. it is said.
 In sending a call to Canada last week for rails, it was said. the British government authorities reported that prompt action would save thousands of lives. It was impossible to get new rails, on account of the great demand for steel for shells.
