wear their buttons on a string,
or hang them on a piece OF card
board. Any man that is regis
tered and not wearing a uniform
should hit the first man III the

Stacker. That beats wearing a
button to protect yourself, with
all due respect to some highly
efficient technical persons. There
are bound to be some people VINO

somebody else in the war efforts
but the careless use of the WORD
Stacker is an evil that requires
more strenuous stuff than buttons

Meanwhile the associations car serv-

way. is chairman, is cooperating with
the interstate commerce commission, ii
was stated here today, in endeavoring
to work out plan to relieve the sit
uation- If the embargoes are contin-
ued, one result, ii is predicted, will be
the dumping of thousands of tons of
foodstuffs into domestic markets in or
der to prevent the food from perishing.
Railroads are said to be suffering heav-
lily financially and it is pointed out that
only by unloading supplies at the cities
where loaded cars stand idle instead
of holding for expectation can the sit
uation be relieved SO that some of the
embargoes may be lifted.

emphasized by what shippers here char

crease in the transportation of raw ma

by manufacturers engaged in export

purchasers do not pay for shipments
until they are delivered at seaboard
With the railroads unable to complete
their deliveries, it is pointed out, in
dustries would be forced to apply to
bankers for further credit until pay
ment from foreign buyers arrived.
