President Wilson as director general
OF railroads was delegatlng TO tho
railroads war board the task OF oper-
ating them for the present.
The war board comprising five OF
the cOuntrys foremost railroad exec
utives who have been I'm supreme
charge OF the roads FOR the last nine

Speed Up Freight.
Tonight Mr.. McAdoo issued his first
formal order designed to speed up
freight movement. telegraphing all
railroad presidents and directors In
structiOns to move traffic by the most
convenient and direct routes. At the
same time he ordered them To con-
tinue operations OF their lines in con-
formity with the presidents procla-
nation putting them under govern-
ment control.
There was indication tonight wheth-
or Mr.. McAdoo intended eventually TO
displace the war board with an or
ganlzation of his own or TO continue
its organization for the duration of
the war. II was meade clear. how
ever, that 1t will continue To function
until the director general decides that
u better system can be devised
The order that freight move by ~
most expeditions routes opens he way
for a pooling OF traffic impossible
heretofore by reason OF statutes de-
signed TO prevent the practice by car
riers operated under private direction.
IL takes from the shipper the right TO
route his freight as he wishes and
leaves To- the railroad traffic manager
the task of sending 1t most directly
and where there is least congestion.
Tho order follows:
