URGE PUBLIC
TOCUT TRAVEL
Pennsy Traffic Manager Says
Railroads Are Heavily
Burdened

Philadelphia, Dec. 15. - Less rail-
road travel by the general public was
urged yesterday by Robert E. Wright,
traffic manager of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, at the long-table lunch con
of the City Club as means of reliev-
ing the congestion which is now bur-
dening all of the railroads of the
country.
I'VE are trying to curtail our pas
senger service" he said, but as long
as we sell tickets we must run our
trains. We cannot take them off while
the people are there to travel" Three
million piies of train service was
taken off last year on the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad, and the elimination
OF the Broadway Limited will mean a
reduction of $4,000 miles more for
the year.
The ordinary passenger service
has. greatly increased" said MIR.
Wright. II hardly know the cause
OF 1t. Perhaps it is that the laboring
classes have more money or that peo-
pie are restless. Washington Is q
lodestone for all kinds of travel. This
year the passenger traffic from Phila-
delphia to Washington has increased
So per cent. and from New York to
Washington SO per cent.
Wars Big Task
Mr.. Wright spoke of the great
strain the new National Army and the
carrying of the regular troops had
placed on the roads. In September.
october and November the Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad carried 5000 men in the
National Army. This required $50
cars. In seven months. ending in Oc-
tober. $4,000 soldiers, besides the Ma
tlonal Army men, were moved, In Oc-
tober the road carried to and from
camp DIX 4S,5OO passengers. made up
of visitors and men on furloughs. The
same number was carried to and from
Camp Meade.
Mr.. Wright referred to the burden
the industrial situation has placed on
the roads. The Pennsylvania Rail
road carries 200 men to Hog Island
every day, 1900 men to the proving
grounds on the Delaware and 1000 to
Eddystone. Excursion trains were
abandoned last summer which had
netted the road 100000. OF freight,
$4,000 carloads were moved for the
building of the sixteen cantonments
and $500 carloads day are needed
| to keep the camps going.
Travel Increases
Sixteen per cent. more traffic was
handled this year than last and so
per cent. more than in 1915. To care
for this business $4,000 cars and 5000
locomotives were needed. Traffic has
increased per ton mile in this coun-
try more than the total ton miles of
the roads of Germany, England and
France put together.
Mr.. Wright also said that to the
end Of October of this year 10000
more cars of anthracite We're shipped
than last year and $4,000 more cars
of bituminous. 81 don't know where
il has gone" he said. "but those are
the facts"

MANY CHANGES AT
POLICE STATION
Mayor Keister Plans to In
crease Efficiency of His
Department

Recommendations to increase the
efficiency of the police were made
at a conference between Mayor Dan
iel l.. Keister and the heads of the
department at conference last
night. The plans include the re-
arrangement of the rooms occupied
by the Mayor and the police in order
to secure the greatest amount of
efficiency out of them, and the in
stallation of a complaint clerk, who
will handle all complaints and sup
ply information to visitors at the
executive and police offices.
At the present, the calls made by
the officers from district boxes are
received by the desk clerk, who must
also attend to all the calls for in
formation that come into the office.
All questions over the phone for
information, and all visitors at the
office for information will be sent
direct to the complaint clerk, who
will occupy the office that has
hitherto been used by the Mayors
clerk, Clarence o. Backenstoss. The
Mayor will retain his present office,
and the record and efficiency clerk
and the Mayors clerk, will occupy
what is now the office of the chief
of police. The dock room will be
remodeled for the chief, and the
captain and lieutenant of police will
occupy it with him. All the rooms
will be numbered so as to make 1t
easy for the complaint clerk to di-
rect callers to the proper offices.
1t was also suggested that u door
he cut in the building at the head
of the steps to the cellar. This
would do away with the necessity of
dragging prisoners through the three
Offices to get them to the cellar.

Train Service Improves;
Trouble in Western Limit

Railroad trains were moving with
more precision to-day. Through
travel from the west was very uncer-
tain, trains being marked up from
three to seven hours late. This traf-
fic, however. is held up in and about
Chicago. On the Pennsy main line,
the Philadelphia and Reading Rail-
way, Cumberland Valley and Balti-
more and Wiliamsport divisions,
trains were moving in good order.
While some of the trains are not back
on their regular schedules traffic is
being handled regularly. Express
business continues heavy, but the con-
gestions have not increased.
