Of South Dakota introduced resolu-
ton for appointment by the president
of a general freight traffic director to
coordinate transportation facilities. It
was referred TO committee without ac-
ton. 49, '.s '"'l'-
House Hears Lenroot. E'"
In the house the agitation for ac-
ton on the transportation situation
showed itself in, a proposal by Rep.
resentative Lenroot of Wisconsin, for
the formation Of a great government
controlled corporation to provide
equipment for the roads. 1t would be
modelled after the Panama Railway
and Shipping corporations, with the
government owning all the stock;
building and leasing cars and locomo-
tives to the railroads. All the corpor-
atoms directors would be members
Of the Interstate Commerce commits
sion except the secretary of the treas.
TRY, and its general manager would
be a practical railroad man.
Government Takes Excess
Wherever the net income of a rail.
road exceeds seven per cent on its in.
vested capital, the corporation would
take seventy per cent Of the excuses
to buy equipment. The equipment cor.
poration, so named by Lenroot's reso.
luton, would be capitalized at $780,.
100000 at first with later extension
to $50000o,000.
In proposing the senate investiga.
ton, Senator Cummins emphasized
that he expected it to be constructive
instead of critical, and that while
there was no doubt railroad facilities
were inadequate he did not blame
either the railroad officials or the
government. The railroads, he though,
were not planned for a war, and he
believed congressional action necess.
airy to unity them.

''The British said Mr.. Mccormick,
"who in proportion to their front have
more guns by far than either of their
western allies, according to their chief
military authorities, will not have
guns enough until next spring The
guns which the French give us, they
give US because the immediate necess-
titles Of our little army in France are
even greater than their own.
General Petain said to me-" make
guns. Send us guns and ammunitions,
rather than steei billets. We are CRATE
full for the little force you have sent
us: The echo of it's footballs carried
hope to every hearth in France, but
as it grows there must be a period
when we shall be taxed to supply it,
While its numbers slowly increase,
you Americans, who are great indus
trial people, must see that this war
is an industry of destruction. You will
understand how urgent it is to send
us guns, middle heavies, and shells,
in order that we may be armed to win
victories and to defend ourselves so
that some of u may be alive to fight
by your side when at last America is
ready"
Italians Badly OF.
1.-THE Italian army" Mr.. Mccormick
continued, had something less than
one quarter as many guns as the Brit
ish and French armies combined, al
though there was no great difference
in the length Of the fronts. In Italy
they suffered from a shortage of am
munitiOn.
"The 1niddle.heavy is to this war
what the steam shovel was to Pan

must create a department of NUM-
