Nations Railroads Pass Under
Control of Government.

The railroads of the United States
passed into government possession at
noon Friday as Secretary McAdoo,
designated by President Wilson as
director of railroads, was del
egating to the railroads war board the
task Of operating them for the pres
ent. This brings approximately 25o,-
600 miles of railroads under govern
ment control, with some two million
employees. Mr.. .McAdoo will receive
no salary for this extra work beyond
the salary he has been receiving as
Secretary of the Treasury.
Mr.. McAdoo's first formal order,
issued Friday night, is designed to
speed up freight movements. He tel
egraphed all railroad presidents and
directors instructions to move traffic
by the most convenient routes. At
the same time he ordered them to con-
tinue operation Of their lines in con-
formity with the Presidents procla-
nation putting them under govern
ment control The order that freight
move by the most expeditions routes
opens the way for pooling of traf-
fic impossible heretofore by reason
of statutes designed to prevent the
practice by carriers operated under
private direction. 1t takes from the
shipper the right to route his freight
as he wishes and leaves to the rail-
road traffic manager the task of send
ing it most directly and where there
is least congestion. . H.

ORGANIZED
CHARITY NEEDED
Plenty of Work in This Vicinity
for an Organization for General
Charity Work to Do.

To the Editor Of The Robesonian:
It is very apparent within the last
few weeks that there will be consider
able charity work needed in this vi
cinity during the winter. The increas-
ed cost of fuel and other necessaries
falls especially heavy upon the unfor-
tunate. Several acute cases have de-
veloped in the last few days, and the
churches have acted with wonderful
promptness, but there is plenty for
them and an organization for general
charity work to do. Food, fuel, and
clothes are needed in several instances
right now, and the undersigned hereby
agree to contribute to an organization
for this purpose. All people who are
willing to join this organization and
make contribution are requested to
communicate at once with Mr.. K M
Barnes, at the Planters Bank & Trust
Co.
Several people will make personal
efforts to secure contributions, but all
cannot be seen, and this is for the pur-
pose of requesting all who are willing
at once to communiate with Mr..
Barnes SO that the matter can be put
in shape at once.
