Iowa Falls. Dec. S.-Many passen J.
gers received a severe shaking uE
when two OF the fast passenger trans
on the Illinois Central came together
Just east Of this city Luckily, no one
was seriously injured, and the damage
to rolling stock was small considering
the crash. The Omaha Chicago pas
senger was running late owing to en-
CINE trouble west of here, and had or
ders to pass the Chicago Omaha tram
due from the ea st shortly after cioch
in the morning. Under the rules OF
operation. the west bound train was
supposed to take the siding, but or
ders had been issued for the east bound
train to take the passing track ano
give the west bound train the right
of-way. The orders were miscon'
strued and the Chicago bound tram
started east the crew believing the
train it was TO meet would take the
siding at the coal chutes. The train
for Omaha, operating under the dis'
patcher's orders assumed it had cieal
track into the station, but in dropping
down the grade into town faced the
other train which was standing still
Efforts to stop the train before they
struck were unsuccessful and the pas
sengers on both trains were given a
severe jolting. The locomotives and
baggage cars were more or less dam
aged. Both trains limped back to the
station here, but traffic was delayed
for several hours.

'pecial to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Burlington Dec. S.-Statements ap-
pearing in the Chicago press and
widely circulated, emanating from par
ties interested in exploiting the sale
OF meat and protesting against wheat
less and meatless days as unnecessary
by the American public, are either
malicious or emanate from personal
interest, obviously endeavoring to raise
the price of meat.
The results from meatless days have
for the first time created a sufficient
visible supply of meat to allow us to
partially comply with the quantities
requested by the allies for shipments
during the month of December. This
should be a matter OF satisfaction TO
the entire American people that their
devotion in this matter now enables us
to resume our duties to the allies IN
this request and our endeavors should
in no instance be relaxed.
As to wheat-we have already ex-
ported the whole of the surplus of the
1917 harvest over and above the nor
NAL demands Of our own population
until the 1918 harvest.
It is necessary for the food admins
tration to restrict the export of wheat
so as to retain in the United States
sufficient supplies to carry our own
people until the next harvest, there
fore all exports Of wheat from now
forward are limited entirely to volume

duets.
Can Not Meet Food Demand.
We are continuing wheat shipment
for December as far as our situation
allows but even with all the conserva-
ton made we are still unable to load
over 4GO.C0 tons of foodstuffs urgently
required by the allies during the month
of December.
Statements of the above character
given out for personal interest are little
in accord with the spirit being shown
by millions of homes in the United
states in an endeavor to aid the food
administration in its task Of feeding
our own soldiers abroad as well as our
allies and stabilizing prices to our own
people.
No more foolish or unpatrotic utter
ance has been made than the state
ment referred to.
In the critical situation of the worlds

ments conservation measure is an &C

in saving food means direct and

About two weeks ago they loaded a

ing for the car to arrive was necessary
to prove to them that Iowa was much

left On board-and before demurrage
charges were due they had changed
their notions about living there, and
the load was re-billed and tickets

was $3.50 miles per hour with two OF
the mile sprints showing an average
of better than 10 miles per hour.
