Way SEIZE U. S. RAILROADS
Transportation System of America Is
Bending and May Break Under
Strain Of First Year at War.

Washington, Oct 15.-"The eXigen-
ries of war may force government own
ership of the American railroads in the
near future" says statement issued
on Friday by the conference commit
tee on national preparedness.
Not only is ship tonnage made
ouate for wars demand, but the whole
transportation system of America Is
bending and may break under the
strain of our first year at war.
With crops not yet moving free
". with only fraction OF our new
army sent from home, with our whole
national war effort yet unplanned ana
unmeasured, war production Is already
h.lnpered by shortage OF cars ana 10
comotives. lack of ample terminal
storage and other facilities.
Perhaps the only step that the rail-
road people could take to postpone
government ownership for any length
of time would be a very broad-minded
and general attitude on their part In
contributing their facilities to the com
munity service (under conditions OF
sale or lease or perhaps pooling)'
where such facilities were needed TO de-
yelop transportation facilities, when
In the past would have been consid'
cred competitive to the individual
road.
Nothing short of the combined 10
cal and national effort can prevent oul
present transportation facilities from
proving utterly inadequate to mee'
the needs for carrying this war to
speedy decision. The toll, therefore
which this nation must pay in bloo'

Although the Entente has made

PROGRAM TOO BIG

"The Entente" says the German
foreign minister, ''lays down a big
program for its Powers and out
lines very extensive demands which
it proposes to obtain.
After such a highly ambitious
program as this of the Entente, the
very moderate terms which Ger
many was prepared to suggest
would only appeal to the enemy as
an indication of weakness. Our.
terms, as we were prepared to adj
vance them, in comparison with
theirs, would only be used by the
governments of the Entente Pow
ers to encourage their peoples to
continue the struggle.

AWAITS OFFENSIVE

There will be better prospects
for peace after the Entente has
tried the new offensive for which
they are preparing When that
offensive has broken down as have
all preceding ones, then the Enten-
te will be disposed to advance rea-
sonable suggestions when we pro-
pose to conclude the war"
In reference to the demands Of
the Entente that the Central Pow
ers grant freedom to the races now
held by them in subjection. Doctor
Zimmerman said: Charity should
begin at home. Let England give
practical example Of what she de-
sires others to do by herself setting
Ireland free"
