the matter Of distribution to insure
against famine.
Generally speaking. industries have
been provided with sufficient equip
ment to meet their normal demands,
while the supply furnished by eastern
railroads for distribution OF grain and
food products generally has been less
than rs per cent Of the requirements,
This fact Is largely responsible for the
present high cost OF living, and unless
Immediately relieved there is great
danger Of a shortage Of necessary sup
plies to sustain human and animal life
In this country as we'll as in Europe.
AT the present time there are So
100000 bushels OF grain in the city OF
Chicago awaiting shipment. Approx
mately 10000. 900 bushels in addition to
this are now in cars or on track in
transit to Chicago. The country ele-
vators to Chicago are holding 10000
900 to 75.000.o00 bushels OF additional
grain, which can not be moved tor
ward unless eastern railroads furnish
equipment to move our present stock
in and around Chicago. The furnish
ing Of cars by eastern railroads to
move forward this tremendous supply
Of grain Is a matter Of national neccs-

the state railroad commission to help
them secure cars. The brick and tile
manufacturers held a meeting yester-
day at Mason City to discuss the car
situation. At their request Thomas II.

there is apparently a greater scarcity
Of laborers for common labor this spring
than ever The continued shortage ~
immigration, which stopped in the tan
of 1914 soon after the European war
got under way is, OF course, one OF
the main causes for the scarcity.
Then many industl les in this country
are at the height Of production and
labor generally has been in demand
right thru the winter months.
1--WE are not having nearly so much
demand for Jobs as we had at this
time last year said Mr.. Nietzel today.
&c Comparatively few ::e:: are coming
into this office asking for work to
what there have been, On the other
hand we have a steady demand for
workers.
1--WE have many applications for
single farm hands in northwestern
and western Iowa." he continued.
Farmers are Offering from $So to $4o
per month to single men. One county
agent has written in here asking FOR
forty farm laborers. They want single
