RAISING THE EMBARGO

The Pennsylvania Railroad has
greatly relieved the freight congestion
on Its lines, which has been effected
through the newly established system
OF joint embargo committee, which
has its headquarters at Pittsburgh.
The purpose Of the committee is to
serve the public more fully by making,
as promptly as possible. notifications
Of embargoeS where transportation
conditions and the ability Of con-
sigreeS TO remove freight from the
cars promptly upon arrival. permit
such exceptions to be made. This
makes more effective the object sought
in handling freight under embargoes,
which is to prevent terminal conges-
ton by separating the freight that
will be held in cars at destination
from that which will be taken off the
railroads hands without delay.
Such progress has recently been
made in clearing up the freight con-
gestion that the management OF the
Pennsylvania lines west hopes. within
3 few days, to be able to remove the
greater part Of the restrictions on the
movement Of domestic freight, n

bargoes against export freight at the
seaports of New York, Philadelphia
and Baltimore. Such freight, as here,
tofore, will be accepted only where the
shippers present satisfactory evidence
that adequate vessel space has been
engaged and that the cars will DO
promptly unloaded upon arrival. This
practice will be maintained in order
that the export freight traffic may be
strictly controlled, and the movement
of foodStuffs and other necessities for
domestic consumption may be as free
as possible. This is in conformity
with the established policy TO give
foodstufrs for home use preference IN
movement over all other kinds of
freight.

THE BIG DRY" MEASURES

The measure which has just passed
Congress providing prohibition for the
District of Columbia is more OF an
anti-saloon inhibition than an anti
liquor edict. 1t allows the importation
OF liquor for personal use under GER
tain restrictions. II wipes out the
saloon from the Capitol, but those who
are able TO buy may have their tipple
as usual.
The vote of the House on the District
bill assures the passage Of the bone
dry" amendment to the postal appro-
priation bill, which forbids the impor-
tation of liquor into States that have
inrerdicted the liquor traffic, and pro-
rides heavy penalties for violation OF
the law. It Is question whether the
bone dr." measure will make the
Capitol completely arid. 1t Is also q
question whether it will invalidate the
quart a month" privilege that the
West Virginia legislature has extend
ed to its citizens.
The measure, il Is true, Is the most
drastic that could have been devised.
and was aimed to protect those States
which have prohibition from the I'M
portatIon Of liquor from wet" States,
and whose laws forbid It. But does
it supersede the laws of those States
which perrait limited importation OF
liouor for personal use, such as West
Virginia? We do not think 1t does.

work showed a thoroughness and skill

PROFITABLE CHRISTMAS

The members of the NJ. +. church
and scholars of the Sunday school,
both young and old, very gladly gave
I'D all idea of having any Christmas
tree or exercises, or spending any
along these lines for them
selves. SO they agreed to meet at
the church and contribute their money
to the relief Of the sufferers of Arme-
MIA. It was rather expected that Il
hundred dollars or so might be so OBJ
tanned and that seemed a good figure.
But when the returns were all in and
the money counted, it was found h n
five hundred and ninety dollars had
been given for this worthy cause.
At the United Presbyterian church
a similar plan was adopted for the
Sunday school and over thirty dollars
was raised for the same worthy cause.
These two instances indicate that
in some ways the church are seeking
IN conserve their on account
of the wal and keep from the useless
expenditure of money. The gifts to
the children would have been greatly
appreciated, but the thought of thei
sacrifice makes them all h more ap-
preciate what the money will mean
to the starving and suffering.
