RAILROADS DECLARE
FREIGHT EMBARGOES
Shipment of Less Than Carload
Lots and Reconsignment Within
City Limits Prohibited

Two freight embargoes in Philadelphia,
effective November 10, were announced to-
day by the Philadelphia district committee
on car service as a step to aid the car
supply work of the railroads war board at
Washington. one prohibits all shipments
of Aess-than-carload freight between points
in the city limits; the other prohibits re-
consignment of both carload and less-than-
carload freight within the city limits.
The embargoes, designed to conserve the
transportation facilities of Philadelphia and
the surrounding region, according to the
committee, will take effect simultaneously at
all the stations of the three railroads serv-
ing the city-the PENNSYLVANIA, Philadel-
phta and Reading and Baltimore and Ohio.
The purpose" the committees statement
reads in part, "is to relieve these railroads
OF the necessity of rendering what is yir-
tually teaming service. which at the
present time seriously lnterferes with their
duties as interstate carriers. Such seryIce
should be performed by teams and trucks
through the city streets with greater eff
cheney and economy than by utilizing the
facilities OF the railroads which are more
urgently needed for other purposes"
Ultimately the intracity restriction will
be extended TO carload consignments ac-
cording TO the announcement, which asserts
that the practice OF using the railroad lines
for city delivery, of freight has grown to
dimensions entailing much car waste and
useless labor. The effect Of reconsignments
is similar TO that of intracltv shipments
the statement says, concluding by pointinI
out that the English railroads have gone SC
| far in their restriction Of shcrt-dlstanct
freight as to prohibit freight shipments o.
less than forty miles, causing such worl
to be done by trucks.

TELLS HOW LOS ANGELES
THREW OFF ITS YOKE
Direct Nonpartisan Election of Mayor
and Council Brought Results,
Says Doctor Burke

Mpnicinal and world democracy and
c,vic affairs were discussed this AFTERNOON
Nv DIR. Jesse d. Burke, director of the
sfHciency department of Los Angeles, Cal,
N a speech at the long table luncheon or
fbe City Club, 1922 South Broad street.
Doctor Burke, who was formerly director
>of the Bureau of Municipal Research In
this city, characterized the Prussianlsm OF
the Central Powers of the same brand as
the polce Prussianism recently used in the
Fifth Wafi
"We must come to see that Prussianism
whether found in Central Europe or the
Fifth Ward of Philadelphia, said Doctor
Burke, whether it gains its purpose by
Freat military machine or by unscrupu-
lous political methods, Is a menace in times
Of peace as in times of war;.
when we come to the point" said Doc
tor Burke. where we shall see as clearly
and resent as deeply the failure of city
government two years after, as we are
accustomed to do six weeks before cleo
ton time, we shall be we'll on the road
toward intelligent self-control
when administrative officers take as
much pride in counting and In locating,
understanding and acknowledging their
failures as they do in putting out state
ments of half-truths and untruths for the
purpose of enlisting undeserved approval
city government will be well on the way
toward democracy.
when we become as sensitive to the
unnecessary death through municipal in
efficiency of a thousand babies in August
as we are to the disgraceful murder of a
single police officer by our politicians In
September. we shall have gained better
perspective of the meaning of good city
government in terms of human life and
welfare"

NO LOWER PRICES HERE
FOR HAM, SAY PACKERS

Announcement from Chicago that the
prices of ham and bacon had been reduced
by the Illinois food administrator from five
to, ten cents pound will have no effect on
prices In Philadelphia, according to local
packers. because the price is already down
to about the level reached by the reduc-
ton in Chicago Any future fluctuations in
the prices of these commodities, II was said,
will depend entirely on the supply of hogs
and the prices at which they are held.
Ham is now selling at wholesale i'm Phil
adelphia around twenty eight or twenty
nine cents, which means price to the con-
sumer of thirty-two to thirty-four cents.
according to local trade conditions. SINH
lary, the price of bacon here is about that
which the Illinois food administrator has
fixed. Hogs, however. are scarce and are
being held for high prices. 1t is possible
that prices may go lower with the placing
of more hogs on the market and the conse-
quent reduction Of the price of live stock
