AN IMPORTANT
COMMUNICATION
SOME WAYS TO MAKE THE
SHORTAGE OF CARS LESS
STRENUOUS.
Boise, Idaho, Aug. 4, 1917.

Boise, Idaho, Aug. 4, 1917.
To the shippers and railroads o
Idaho.
Gentlemen:
This commission has been ap
lpealed to by the Committee on cal
service OF the American Railway
Association of the League of Ma
tional Defense to cooperate in urg-
ing the loading of all railway equip
ment to its fullest permissible ca
pacity, regardless of trade units OF
minimum capacity rules.
This country has a big under
taking ahead of it to success
fully prosecute this worldwide war,
and one of the prime features of
this job is the question oi transpor-
tation, a vital problem to the dis
tribution of food stuffs, the move
ment of men, munitions and war
supplies.
There are 2,575,O 600 freight cars
in this country, ar increase of two
tons per loaded car would be equiv
alent to adding over 200 900 cars to
the number available for public use.
There are from 25O.OOO to 100000
points in the United States where
1t is estimated that quicker loading
and unloading would increase the
number of available cars by 515,- /
900.
Now, if the public will coop
crate with the railroads in loading
cars to their full permissible ca
pacityl and in releasing equipr ent !
maximum efficiency will
be secured and the problem
solved.
All shippers should ask for only
he cars they need and when they,
iced them: use fully; load prompt
y; release quickly.
This Commission requests and
Irges the shippers of Idaho and
he RAILROADS of this state to join
ands in helping to solve this trans
problem during this nation
i crises.

MISLEADING
STATEMENTS

Out of all fairness to all par
ties concerned, it would seem that
the article appearing in the Fruit
land Banner last week should have
read to convey the facts to the
reading public
| As a matter OF fact it should
have read that during the week
of July End a fair ind equitablee
understanding was reached by the
County Commissioners in regard
to county officers salaries for the
ensuing year.
This was given to the various
newspapers CT the county for pub
ication, and thus tho public was
lead to believe, that these We're the
fixed salaries, as the figures were
secured from the Clerk of the
Board, Mr.. Cloud.
Not only is the public led to-
believe that the salaries of the
various county officers were fixed
at the first meeting of the Com I
as reported in the va
rious papers over the County, but |
it seems that from the Auditors
own statement in the Banner, /
The County Attorney, Auditor, Sher-
if and assessor not being sat
isfied with the salaries asked for
a raise, which was granted by
the Board of Commissioners by a
unanimous vote
The Auditor is also of the opin-
on that the. salaries We're fixed,
else he could not have said that
he officers above named not be-
ng satisfied asked for a raise"
Later, however, the prosecuting at
orney, auditor, sheriff and as
lessor appealed to the Board of {
commissioners and demanded their
'alaries be raised to S15OO.00 as l
Lgainst the figures that had al '
eady been published. The raise l
vas promptly granted. q
A few idays later, on learning Of +
he demands and grants, the pro- c
ate judge, treasurer, and the t
ounty superintendent met with the
and asked humbly to I
e included with the chosen lew II
18th a salary raise, accordingly, v
ut their humble appeal tell on b
eaf ears for the Commission Y
RS promptly rejected their request. "
