roads of our country are exceedingly
congested, with consequent delay in
delivering much needed freight, and
with a resulting enormous increase
in the cost Of food and materials
This increase in cost bears with par
ticular hardship upon the ultimate
consumer, and involves loss to the
producers who find themselves I'M
able to get their goods to market a.
the time of most urgent demand. 1t
is reported by the railroads that on
the first OF February there was a
shortage of 10000 freight cars,
which by March l had grown to over
10000 and on April 1, 1t had be-
come over $4,000. Assuming an
average load OF about twenty tons,
this represents nearly 100000 tons
of freight car capacity needed by the
business interests of this country III
excess of that now available.
In view of the present emergency
in our national existence, it Is a
patriotic duty to cooperate to our
utmost in relieving this stringency.

may have in reviving river traffic
