committee Of seven operating rail-
way vice Presidents viii be the Gov
ernment. It consents to the revolu-
tionary pooling of equipment in
hopes that the most serious trans
portation congestion in the country'S
history will be relieved.
Failure BY these measures, eventhe
railroad executives admit, may lead
to federal control. While this would
leave operation virtually in the same
hands, even more radical measures to
expedite freight and eliminate dupll-
cation OF equipment on parallel lines
would follow.
Before leaving for Pittsburgh to
establish the committee's hOadquart-
ers, Chairman A W. Thompson, vice
president OF the Baltimore and Ohio,
stated the prevention OF future con-
gestion will be based mainly on
emergency routing. That is the rea-

SLAUGHTER OF
THE INNOCENTS
BY Ed L. KEEN

United Press stsn Correspondent
LONDON. June ~. - For
pure fcndlshness OF purpose
and In the CHASTITY toll OF limo.
cent women, children and old
men, Germany's air raid on
London yesterday was the
most rurderous OF all the air
piracy which England has seen.
There were number OF add
tionai deaths during the night and
morning. the exact number not yet
being obtalnable. Some OF the
wrecked buildings were sull
smouldering. due TO the intensely
lnflammable nature Of tho incend-
larry bombs. whose acid explosions
caused Intense suffering to vic.
TINA
New destructive and pain-makinE
missiles werc dropped by the In
vaderH. Most OF the injured suf'
fered terribly from acid fluids con
tanned In many OF the bombs. Tiny
children and women writhed In the
hospital beds today from great
burns caused by the murderous
missiles.
Shameful Success"
Germany will report success" in
this air raid. Here Ia the total of
that success. ms compiled from of
ficial data today:
KILLED. %: Children. 26: WON
en-. Ig: men. Sc. including a score
OF feeble. aged men and cripplcs.
INJURED: Children. 81. WON
en-. l22, men. s23
Tiny Victims Still Buried
The buildings damaged were OF
an utterly non.military character.
School houses were included In
those struck. Tiny bodies were
still buried beneath the wreckage
today, IL was believed.
The public believes It's aerial pa.
trolls and antiaircraft guns drove
off the Germans before they could
do more killing over the capital
city. There was no disposition TO
criticize the defensive measures
In all the aftermath discussions
there was the prayer expressed
that America would soon start
huge air fleet overseas.
