There is another factor, too, which
is not overlooked. Once we get our
soldiers landed in France, we will
have accomplished large part of
our task The U-boat issue is still
uncertain. We do not know whether
the Atlantic ferry will be safer or
more perilous several months hence.
There is always the possibility, how
ever remote we may consider it, that
the submarine may play havoc with
our transportation of troops. It's
best to take no chances, to get our
men across as expeditiously as pos
sible, while the passage is compara-
lively safe Once there, they can
fght-there will be no more ques-
ton of their participation in great
game.
Fortunately we have the necessary
ships now to send the available men
and supplies. The German liners
seized several months ago by our
government, and apparently over
looked in recent lamentations over
the lack of vessels, have nearly all
bee repaired by the navy department
Their availability is providential, and
their use affords rare example Of
poetic justice. Germany, forcing
US to defend our sea rights, has giver
us the ships to carry the fighters.

BOXCARS SEEKING
THEIR HOME RAILS
New Agreement in Effect On
Thursday Expected to Re-
lieve Car Shortage.
FINE FOR KEEPING CARS

Yesterday was the last day Of grace
for railroads TO hold empty freight
equipment, unless the holding road
desires to pay the heavy penalty to be
applied by the Interstate Commerce
commission This penalty is S per
day per car for the first three days,
and increasing at the rate of 81 per
day until a maximum Of $40 per day
has been reached. After that another
$40 is added each day and applied on
each and every freight, stock or coal
car so held.
Railroads ten days ago began to
get rid OF their foreign line cars and
as a result shippers have noted con-
siderable relief in the car shortage
situation.
Local yardmasters and switchmen
are hunting cars and getting ready
to spot them on tracks from which
they can be hauled away within the
next few hours n order that the COM
panies by which they are employed
will not be held for the penalties pro-
vided for in the commission order,
With coal and gondola cars the or
der is just as drastic as with the box
and stock cars. Due to the fact that
there are very few loads for this class
of cars, long trains of them are being
pulled east and south, not one in fifty
carrying loads.
Cars for Grain.
Most of the box cars are carrying
loads as they are being returned to
the owner roads Grain, generally, is
the commodity.
The order relative to returning cars
to the owner line is not very elastic,
1t provides that the cars may be
loaded, but in the event of carrying
loads they must be delivered to the
nearest connection on the owner line
and sent by the shortest route. 1t
also provides that in loading cars OF
foreign lines these loads must not be
consigned to points off or beyond the
lines of the road owning the cars. 1t
is figured that this will get the cars
into home territory within the short
est space of time.
The same rule applies in the matter
Of cars owned ip this territory as on
cars owned by roads out OF this terri
tory. As a result OF this rule that
works both ways, officials of local
roads assert that within a few days
indications are that they will have
large numbers of their own cars back
on their own tracks and that the con-
gestion will practically be at an end.
