LACKING CARS,
CORN CROP RIOTS
F. R. Funk Says Illinois
Alone Must Have $4,000
Within Thirty Days.

An abnormal export trade from the
Eastern States. due to enormous orders
for war materials and provisions from
European countries, has resulted in the
Eastern railroads OBTAINING thousands
Of cars owned by Western lines. there
by threatening disaster 10 Western
crops. according TO +. K. Funk, a
member Of the Illinois Public Utili-
tics Commission. who arrived here yes
terday Accompanied by +. |. Wayne,
director Of the Illinois Grain Dealers
Association, Mr.. Funk left last night
for Washington to confer with the In
terstate Commerce Commission.
Approximately $4,000 cars must be
provided for the movement Of corn in
Illinois alone within the next thirty
days or serious loss will be entailed,
Mr.. Funk asserted.
"The situation in Illinois is per
haps more precarious than in any other
grain state" declared Mr.. Funk. The
elevators are full of corn, much Of

calls for immediate removal. Other
wise the corn will 90 out Of condition.
Wheat and oats, which are of much
frmer quality than corn. can wait for
some time.
Iowa has very little surplus corn
this season. and Missouri and Kansas
have been shipping much Of their corn
South The other grain states are not
as seriously hampered by the car
shortage as Illinois. but they feel that
something should &c done now"
There is a reciprocal agreement be
tween the railroads, according TO Mr..
Funk. by which one road receiving a
car owned BY another road is required
to pay the owner only 40 cents day
until the return Of the car.
at may readily be seen from this
declared Mr.. Funk. that the Eastern
railroads, themselves caught short OF
cars for handling the enormous export
trade the war has thrust upon them
can we'll afford to pay 40 cents a day
for the use Of car owned by another
road The per diem charge is nothing
as compared with the earning capacity
Of a car in such times"

SENATE ENDORSES
CuMM|NS ARMY PLAN

Washington, April 5.-Over- vigor-
ous objections by Chairman Chamber
lain of the military committee the
senate voted, IS to 80, for the Cum
Minis plan to amend the army reor-
ganization bill by creating a national
guard section of the general staff.
When recess was taken the chair
man and other members of the com
mittee were fighting hard against a
second amendment championed by
Senator Cummins and Senator Lee of
Maryland, which would eliminate the
provision for a federal volunteer army.
Senator Chamberlain charged dur.
ing the debate that pernicious activity
on the part of officers Of both the
national guard and the regular army
threatened to undo the months of seri-
GUS work done by the committee.
He threatened that unless the army
officers ceased attempting to influence
legislation through personal appeal to
senators he would seek to have them
disciplined by the wal department.
