WAR BAN PUT ON
FREIGHT CARS
Order Forbids Use Of Open Top
Carriers for Non-Essen-
tials After Nov. /.

WAsHrNGroH. Oct. 27-The Govern.
ment tonight took steps to restrict on.
terprises not essential to conduct Of the
war by forb!ddinE the use Of open ton
freight cars on and after November 1
tor transportation Of various materials
The restriction was imposed through
an order issued by Robert S. Iovet,.
priority director Of the War Industries
board. prohibiting use OF open top cars.
excepting nat cars. for carrying any
or the specified materials for private
orders, Coal IL exempted and the order
does not apply to shipments for the
Government or to shipments in closed
box cars.
The order is expected to provide early
relief for the car shortage which has
affected the transportation Of coal,
coke. ore. limestone. sugar heets. suaar
cane. sorghum cane and raw materials
for use in the metal. sugar and fertilizer
industries and other commodities neces-
sary to the national defence and
security"
Heretofore. said Judge 1ovett's order,
the transportation Of there materials has
fs neen hampered oy inaistence OF manu-
facturers on cars for non-essentials
Articles affected by the order follow ::
Materials and supplies. other than
coal. for the construction. maintenance
or repair OF public or private highways.
roadways. streets or sidewalks.
Materials and supplies. other than
coal. for the construction. maintenance
or repair OF theatres or other buildings
or structures to be used for ainusemen,
purposes.
Materials and supplies. other than
coal. for the manufacture OF pleasure
vehicles furniture or musical instru-
ments
Passenger vehicles. furniture and mu-
steal Instruments"
The most drastic effect Of the order
probably will be to stop many public
road ane treet building enterprises. fo-
which crushed stone. cement and asphalt
materials have been transported largely
In open cars Automobile manufa c,urers
also will feel tn. effect OF the Govern
fent action to soms extent, since open
top cars cam have been used for carry

duction need not he restricted greatly.
II IL believed, as most materials for their

In closed cars The scarcity OF box cars
within the last two years. however, has
