Has Given Invaluable Experience.
The railroads OF the country. In or.
der TO be completely ready to CO.
operate with the war department i'm
the event of national emergency. will
exert all efforts to have the present
freight congestion cleared up.
A commission appointed several days
ago by the American Railway associa-
tion will deal with the situation. The
commission has plenary powers. The
activities of this commission will be
concerned solely with the congestion
problem. In the case OF eventualities
calling for the movement by rail of
large bodies of troops and military sup
plies 1t is likely the American Hallway
association will appoint still another
commission to act under the direction
OF the war department.
Border Commission Acts.
This commission, Ii is believed. will
include lie members Of the border
transportation commission. which han
died The movement OF troops to the
border. On that commission were Fair
fax Harrison, president Of the South
2rn railway; X. H. Ashton, president
OF the Chicago and Northwestern; w.
g. Besler, president Of the Central
Railroad of New Jersey, and A. w.
Thompson, vice president Of the Balti
more and Ohio railroad.
The experience Of the railroads in
the mobilization of the national guard
will prove invaluable, it is believed, In
any future troop movements. The bor-
der transportation commission has is
sued Il report dealing with the mobil-
izataion from its transportation point
Of view, which said
Reports of representatives at mobil-
ization points developed the fact that
by reason of the character Of the ia
cilitles provided some delay and in
convenience were caused by the load
ing OF troops and their supplies
There was also concern expressed by
the war department as to danger OF
congestion at the border While moth.

be concentrated than was the case in
this instance there might have been Sc
riOus difficulty in the unloading OF
troops and supplies and their removal
from railway premises.
Difficulties Experienced
'Difiiculty was experienced at times
in ascertaining the actual equipment
required for any specified movement
for several reasons. Tourist cars were
always desired, and il was not possible
for roads on initial points to ascer-
tain whether all or part would be
available. Coaches were held, there
fore, IN excess OF real requirements
Correct adyices could not always be
obtained from the camp quartermas-
ters. Reports showing the movement
Of troop trains were sent by the rail-
roads direct to the quartermaster gen.
eral. They were sometimes incnn-
plete and In many cases delayed. We
cannot find that any great hardship
resulted from this, but 1t is conceivable
that In a larger movement this would
be most important feature"

Measures Likely TO Be Taken.


Here are some of the things which
Uncle sam viii be pretty sure to do
under the stress Of war:
Resort promptly to conscription Of
all ablebodied single men first
between eighteen and forty-tive years
of age, with those limits extended, If
necessary, for the army and navy.
There will be no conscription ii volun-
teers come forward in sufficient mum
bers TO meet the requirements Of the
presidents first call
Commander all automobiles, auto
trucks. motorcycles, horse vehicles and
horses munition and other plants for
all of which the government would
pay, of course
Commanders all railroads and street
railway lines telegraph and telephone
lines, all steamboats,, ships and other
craft
All food supplies except sufficient
for civilian population on IA reduced
rate. gasoline and all other things re-
quired for the conduct of the war
suspend fabea6 corpus ACT.
Suspend the habeas corpus act. thus
taking away the last prop of those
who might extend aid on comfort to
the enemy. This act was suspended
during the war between the states 1t
came TO a final test in Baltimore in
May, 1861. John Merryman, Il leading
citizen of Baltimore county, had been
arrested on the charge of treason A
petition was filed in the United States
circuit court In his behalf by his coun-
sci. praying for the issuing of habeas
corpus, which was granted by Chief
Justice Taney of the United States SUI
preme court and refused by General
Cadwallader of the army. Subsequent
~ Chief Justice fancy issued an at
tachment for contempt OF court. The
question was referred to President
Lincoln and was never heard of again.
This and other acts by Uncle Sam
during the civil war period should con
vince all that the government has am
pie authority to take care of itself.
If necessary detention camps can be
established, where all enemy citizens
will be compelled to reside until the
war is over.
Here are some more steps the gov
eminent could and undoubtedly would
take to insure the safety of the coun-
try:
stop runs on savings and other
banks.
Prohibit expectation of all foodstuffs
and other supplies which this govern
ment might need.
In fact, Uncle Sam would demon
strate on short notice and without for.
NAL preliminaries that under the stress
OF war he Is some pumpkins"

powerful as any potentate on earth, as
has been demonstrated on other occa-
sions when eXigcncies OF war demand
