Truck Train Off
In Move to Solve
Transport Puzzle
Success of Experiment Is
Likely to Relieve Rail-
road Burden

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The first
section of the American army's new
experimental truck transport service
has started from Detroit for the At
lantic seaboard to test the army's plan
for relieving congestion in freight ter
minals by use Of motor trucks.
In statement tonight Quartermas-
ter General Sharpe said if the plan
proves successful it is estimated that
the total relief TO the railroads,
through the shipment to the Coast un-
der their own power Of the 10000 war
trucks the army has under construc-
tion, will amount TO 100000 tons. IL
also viii permit the transportation Of
10000 tons Of government materials
to the Coast from the interior storage
depots.
"The plan will serve also another
urgent need" said General Sharpe,
chat OF providing adequate oDportu-
nifty for the training Of an effective
corps Of trans port drivers and officers.
The training which our men will re-
ceive i'm driving loaded army trucks
from factory TO seaport under the try
lNS CONQ'llo0S Wnlcn VIII De cncOun-
tered this winter will as nearly as
possible, reproduce actual service con-
ditions abroad.
Working in close touch with the
storage committee OF the Council of
National Defence. which IS helping TO
work out the mobilization Of the varied
war stores al convenient central points,
the highways transport committee is
laying out a comprehensive system of
through routes between the truck pro-
duction centres, the storage centres
and Atlantic coast ports.
"A central main line, or backbone
military highway. will be selected be-
tween Chicago and New York City, and
leading to this will be feeder routes
from the various scattered motor pro-
duction centres. In the East branch
routes will lead off the main line north
and south to the various Atlantic coast
ports
estate and county officials have been
called to Washington, and are being
urged as a patriotic duty in the war
emergency TO bring these local gaps
Immediately into suitable condition"

Boston Mayoralty
Campaign Battles
Political Experts
Five Candidates in Field
Racial and Religious
Issues Raised
Especial Correspondence

BOSTON, Dec. 16.-Political experts
are bafled as TO the outcome Tuesday
Of the city's worst Mayoralty campaign
in a eneration-worst from almost
every angle, its mud-throwing, its racial
and religious issues, its multiplicity of
candidates and it's underground" ru-
mors designed to injure the regulations
Of the candidates.
Tonight sees former Mayor Fitz-
gerald and other Democratic leaders
lined up with Representative James A.
Gallivan. Martin Lomasney, the BOSS
Of Boston," was still on the fence to-
night, but his friends say that he will
declare for former Representative An
drew j. Peters.
Republican ward leaders are behind
Peters, although he is a strong Demo
crat on national politics. District At
torney Joseph Pelletier and q large
following are behind James VI. Curley
in his effort TO be reelected Curley
also has the support Of Charles S.
Baxter, stalvart Republican and
Representative Peter NJ. Tague, of
Charlestown, is another strong Demo
crat in the field, and James 0'Neal
Socialist, will run on "stickers," hav-
ing fallen about three hundred names
short of the necessary three thousand
to get his name on the ballot.
Two weeks ago any one would have
said that the contest was between Cur
ley and Peters. Since that time CALI
van has come forward so fast that to-
day some political experts were con.
ceding him the election with lead OF
5000 votes. Gallivan and Tague should
pull from Curley strongholds. This
naturally will help Peters. However
it was learned tonight that 1000
drafted men at Camp Deyens were
granted permission at the last minute
to return here 70 vote. They have been
receiving favors in the way Of smoking
material from the Curley cohorts, and
almost all OF them probably will vote
for Curley.
Tonight one prediction seems as
good as another. 1t is safe TO say that
the winner of the election Tuesday will
nose by with only few thousand lead

Christmas Tree
Famine Here
Railroads, Pressed on War
Deliveries, Unable to
Handle Firs

And now it looks like a Christmas
tree-less Christmas.
p. d. Foy, government market expert,
said yesterday that New York City will
have fewer and moro expensive Christ
mas trees this year than ever in it's
history. There is no sentiment in war,
and so the government, moving its ma
chinery at top speed to meet all the de-
mands of a nation modified for war,
has found but little time for trans
porting bulky Christmas trees to New
York City.
In former years, Mr.. Foy said, George
A. Blank, who is Christmas tree king
by winter and watermelon king by sum-
mer, and other dealers nave secured the
city's permission TO pile their trees
sky high on the docks. Well, there is
other use for the docks around New
York City these days. and no power
under the sun could have secured this
permit now. Moreover, there were
hardly enough trees 70 worry about.
The railroads have been so busy haul
ing coal, -four and food supplies Of all
sorts that Christmas trees were out OF
the question. Several consignments
have come by boat.
Mr. Foy said that food prices were
going up partly for the reason that
nearly all transportation equipment
was devoted to the movement OF coal
During the last week, he said, eggs had
gone up two cents a dozen, beef and
poultry three TO four cents and veal
FIVE cents pound.
There are about 3,259,000 pounds OF
cold storage turkey in the country, Mr.
Foy declared, for the Christmas trade.
. This supply must be sold before Janu-
airy l. Turkey shipments from the
South, he said, had been cut down to
almost nothing because Of the demand
for coal transportation.
Nr. Foy advised retail dealers and
consumers not to make inquiries for
turkeys before next Saturday. Other
wise, he thought, the price might be
boosted. lie expected fresh killed
Western turkeys to sell retail at from
80 to As cents pound and cold storage
az 35 TO 81 cents.

u. S. Asked Nicaragua for
5000 Men, SAYS German Paper

LONDON. Dec. 4.-The relations be-
tween America and Nicaragua were
thus described in the "Koelnische Zeit-
ung" Of November z:
THE United States has called upon
Nicaragua to send 5000 men to the
front. The (Nicaraugan) government,
being well aware of the unrest in the
country, withheld information about
the demand from the public. The news,
nevertheless, leaked out, and was at
once spread throughout the country. A
revolution almost started.
The final result is that no men are
recruited for the purpose. When Mica
ragua was urged to declare war on Ger
many she was assured that such an act
would be OF no practical consequences.
Nobody deems it possible that the coun-
try Nicaragua should be called upon
to assist the United States on account
Of its own desperate situation"
