GREAT LAKES ARE
IN WINTER GARB
Navigation Ceased Early in Month 81
December This Season-Channe,s
Frozen Over Rapidly.

Detroit. Mich, Dec. 25.-Nayieat;o,
on the Great Lakes ended as il begaa
in a hard and long fight with iee
blockades. The parallel failed in ona
respect, however. According to tbs
best available information crews az
bound freighters at the close ~
navigation did not suffer from Iscl,
Of provisions. At the opening OF tbs
season number of vessels becams
imprisoned in Lake Superior miles
from shore and food supplies We're
taken to them by men who fougbf
against terrific odds, risking their
lives in trips across the ice.
One obstacle the fleet encountered A.
the end was the fact that the ice in.
stead OF being soft in long reaches A.
was the case at the opening was sofa
and grew thicker every boar. '.ha
cold weather continued unbroken and
the channels throughout the lakes
froze over almost as fast as ice-breaE.
ers opened the way for the last down.
bound fleets. Further delay was en-.
countered IN handling ore and coal
at the loading docks. Much e Il vAs
frozen in open top cars.
The end began in the early part az
December, when vesselmen were stin
hopeful that the seasons tonnage car
ried might equal the record year Of
1916. A terrific blizzard swept tho
entire lake region at the beginning
OF the second week and sent virtually
the entire feet into shelter for re
hours. The storm had not lifted
when temperatures both In the upper
and lower lake regions dropped TO
far below zero.
Channels throughout the lake re-
gion became choked with ice and sew
eral of the rivers connecting the DIFF
ferent lakes became frozen over. De-
spite these obstacles, efforts were
made to bring down from Lake ST.
perior millions OF bushels of grain
and additional cargoes of iron ore.
Acting on the suggestion Of the fed
eral government the Lake Carriers as.
ISOLATION pressed into service virtual
| ly every car ferry and tug on the
| lakes to bring the vessels down to
| Lake Erie ports-gateways to the east
! There ensued some of the most ardu-
GUS battles with ice seen in recent
| years on the Great Lakes Vessels
which ordinarily made the downbound
trip in few days were delayed more
than week, while tugs and car fer
ries broke passageways through ice
running in some instances more than
| foot deep. From Dec. 10 to Dec. ls.
more than three score freighters were
Diloted through heavy blockades at
| Sault Ste. Marie, in the st. Clair river,
/ in the Livingstone channel, of Bar
Point at the mouth of the Detroit nv
er, and again IN Lake Erie Of Col
! chester, Ont.
While the total tonnage handled dur
| ing 1917 did not equal that Of 1916,
the amount of coal exceeded that Of
! the year before. Nearly twenty-eight
| million tons OF fuel went through, an
| increase over the previous year Of
approximately two million tons. To-
/ tai shipments of ore from the Lake
Superior region were 62,49S,900 tons
| compared with 64,734,19S tons in 1915.

ity assured to the owners and credit
ors Of the great systems which the
government must now use under its
own direction or else suffer serious
embarrassment.
The secretary OF war and I are
agreed that. all the circumstances be-
ing taken into consideration. the best
results can be obtained under the I'M
mediate executive direction of Will
liam G. McAdoo, whose practical ex-
perience peculiarly fits him for the
service and whose authority as secre-
tary of the treasury will enable him to
coordinate as no other man could the
many financial interests which will be
involved and which might, unless sys-
tematiCaly directed, suffer very en-
barrassing entanglements.
The government of the United States
is the only great government now en-
gagged in the war which has not al
ready assumed control OF this sort.
1t was thought to be in the spirit OF
American institutions to attempt to dc
everything that was necessary through
private management, ana if zeal and
dDllliy ana patFiOIlc motive could nave
accomplished the necessary unifca-
/ ton OF administration it would GER
tainiy have been accomplished; but nc
zeal Or ability could overcome insup-
erabS obstacles, and have deemed il
/ my duty to recognize that fact in all
candor, now that it is demonstrated
and to use without reserve the great
authority reposed in me. A great ma.
ti0nal necessity dictated the action and
1 was therefore not at liberty to alb,
stain from it.

PRESIDENT WILSON MAKES STATEMENT
ABOUT TAKING OVER THE RAILROADS
BIZ MannRaM WILSON.

I have exercised the powers over

Of congress of August, 1915, because II
has become imperstively necessary for
me 10 do so This is war OF re-
sources no less than Of men. perhaps
even more than OF men, and It Is nee
essary for the complete mobilization OF
our resources that the transportation
system Of tie country should be or
ganized and employed under single
authority and a simphfied method Of
coordination which have not proved
possible under private management
and control.
The committee Of railway execu-
tives who have been cooperating with
the government In this all important
matter have done the utmost that it
was possible for them 70 do; have
done Il with patriotic zeal and with
great ability; but there were diff
culties that they could neither escape
nor neutralize. Complete unity Of ad-
ministration in the present circum.
stances involves upon occasion and al
many points a serious dislocation OF
earnings. and the committee was, OF
course. without power or authority to
irearrange charges or effect proper
compensatlons and adjustments OF
earnings.
