THE BELOVED WARRIOR.


 LOUIS M. GRICE. To lofty ideals holding fast, He ventures on his dangerous quest, That deadly wrongs may be redressedh He goes-a champion Of the free. And now I ask. with bated breath, Will my dear one come back to me From that charred land of war and

VIII he come back? again | ask: An mel how bitter-thus to part: I falter at each daily task, With sorrow stabbing my lone hearti While even through my f1tfui sleep, Grim war fntones unhapply themes; For where the flame of battle sweep. I see him struggling In my dreams, Fighting to reach t&e hero's goal; Yet greater far would be myFwoe, Feared he the foe. He could not rest in peaceful ease While mailed might assai1ed the WorIo, And sough with vandal hands to seize The gems in Freedoms crown I'm pearled: When Liberty. imperiled. called In clarion tones to loyal sons; By awful dangers unappalled; He leapt to her defending guns;

 For his return watch and pray, I would not thus his presence crave, Were he less brave.

RAILROAD CONGESTION
NOW CALLED CRITICAL
Plan for Pooling All Traffic Sys.
TENS of the Country Discussed
by Officials.

A plan for pooling the entire railway
equipment and traffic Of the United States
was taken up here today at a conference
between government officials and railroad
heads. Congestion has reached a stage.
it is realized, where radical measures
must be put into force if the country 8
traffic is to be moved.
The conference was attended by mem
bers Of the railroad war board. Robert
S. Lovett, government director Of prior
ity Of transportation: Fuel Admins
traitor Garfield, Food Administrator
Hoover. Chairman Hurley of the ship
ping board and others.
Although the railroads are handling a
much larger volume Of freight and pas
senger traffic than they ever moved be-
fore. railroad officials admit that un-
less something is done Immediately the
lines cannot carry all that Is offered by
the public for transportation.
Joint operations of the roads by the
railroad war board has helped the situ-
alton, but all recognize that more must
be done if the problem is to be solved.
Even pooling the tracks and equipment
will not be enough, some railroad heads
believe and they have presented to the
government d list of more than 500
commodities for which they ask that
transportation be denied, on the ground
that their movement is not essential
to the conduct of the war Railway
congestion is particularly marked in
the east, where most of the big indus
trial plants engaged in war work are
located, and if a pooling plan is put
into operation it may be applied at
first only to eastern roads.

PROBE OF SUGAR BOARDING
AND COMBINATION SALES

Reports of sugar boarding and COM
binat ton sales of sugar with other COM
modities by Washington grocers are
under investigation by the District food
administration today.
Dealers who have violated the regu-
lations governing the sale of sugar in
the District today face the prospect of
having their licenses taken away If the
reports made to the food administra-
tion are proved true. Combination sales
are going to be followed by punishment
to the guilty dealers. This was made
plain by Food Administrator Wilson.
THE sugar situation in Washington
will be acute for some time" said Mr.
Wilson. Households. hotels and res
taurants should be careful of the supply.
Buying more sugar now than is abso-
lutely needed Is selhshness that shows a
lack Of patriotism"
The food administration has not thus
far considered seriously the issuance of
sugar cards to apportion supplies. 1t was
learned on good authority today, and the
administration is hopeful that the prob
lem of sugar shortage will be solved by
cooperation of the public and dealers
with the food agencies rather than by
the enforcement Of autocratic measures.
