WITHOUT PAY
Executive Committee De-
cides Only Compensation
for Travelling Expenses
Will Be Allowed.
Permanent Organization Is
Perfected by Placing Sec
rotary on Stated Salary
and Authorizing Employ
ment Of Office Help.

The executive committee Of the state
council Of defense, which has been re-
organized, moved Wednesday night to
place the council on permanent and
substantial basis. The committee de-
cided that the councils secretary, |
Joseph Hansen, should be paid a SAL
AIRY of 5000 per month and that he
should be given the assistance of a
stenographer at q salary Of $50 per
month.
The following resolutions relating to
the compensation of members of the
council was approved:
BE it resolved that 1t Is the sense
of the executive committee of the state
council of defense that no members OF
the state council of defense shall secure
any compensation from the funds pro-
Nided for the council for services rend-
cred in it's behalf other than order re-
endorsement for expenses actually in
Cured items Of expense to be audited
| by the executive committee before be-
ing paid. This does not apply to the
secretary who shall receive fixed
salary"
PAYMENT OF CLAIMS.
All claims against the state as the
result of Indebtedness incurred by the
council shall be known as deficiency
war claims" and as such shall be au-'
thorized paid by the state board of ex-
aminers after they are approved by the
executive committee of the council.
The finance committee of the council
will later take up the matter of provid-
ing for the payment of these claims.
There is now no fund out of which they
may be paid, the legislature not hav
ing made an appreciation for a counsel
of defense not in existence at the time
the law makers met. 1t will become
necessary to have some banking insti-
tuition carry the claims at an interest
rate of per cent until such a
time as it can be reimbursed by the
next legislature. When the council
was in session here it was stated by
members they believed there would not
be the slightest difficulty in securing
an advancement from a bank to meet
all the emergency Indebtedness the
council might bring about.

NULE REVERSED
ON ICE CARS.
FOR SHIPPERS
Public Utilities Commission
Notified That Preference
in Future Will Not Be
Given on Refrigerators.
Gull Apples for Meridian
Drier May Be Shipped
From Points as Far East
as Twin Falls and West as
Weiser in Box Cars.

The public utilities commission has
been notified that iced refrigerator cars
will not be given preference over dry
refrigerators where the shipper loads
with apples and potatoes or other pro-
ducts that are not Immediately perish
able. Joel L. Priest. Idaho agent for
the Oregon Short Line railroad. trans
mitted this information to the commits
sion under instructions from Superin-
tendent Reeves and other officials OF
the road. 1t is also announced that th',
Oregon Short Line has issued orders
permitting the shipmc;.; If Gull apples
in box cars from points as far east as
Twin Falls and west as Weiser to Mer
idian TO supply the driers in operation
at the latter place. This order Will
save many thousands of dollars to the
growers planning to place their culls
with the drier.
ADVANTAGE TAKEN.
at has always been rule that an
iced refrigerator car had preference
over dry car because of the fact only
perishable products are shipped in iced
cars" said Mr.. Priest. This rule was
established because Of the superstition
that shipper desiring, we shall say
for illustration, to pay s45 for icing OF
n car to Chicago, had a perishable
product for shipment.
However. it was not supposed that
orders would be placed for iced cars
for the shipping of such products as
are not Immediately perishable as has
been the case recently since the short =
age in cars became serious. Shippers
knowing of the rule that iced cars had
preference placed orders for such cars.
Our company has had that rule broken
and hereafter during the shipping of
the products from this state there will
be no preference shown in the matter
of refrigerator cars
TO CONSERVE CROP.
The complaint against showing
preference in iced refrigerators poured
into the public utilities commission
during the week. Shippers said that
orders they had placed for cars days
ago had not been filed, while other
shippers ordering iced cars had been
given preference. This was held to
be unfair. The matter was called tc
the attention of the Short Line Off
Gals and the Pacific Fruit Express
company which supplies most of the
southern Idaho territory with refrig-
orator rolling stock.
1t is believed that the order OF the
Short Line permitting the use of bo1
cars for the shipment of Gull apples &c
the driers at Meridian will greatly
assist that industry as well as make
available thousands of tons of apples
that otherwise would go to waste. The
road issued the order in the hope OF
conserving crops that threaten to b'
a loss.
