HELP SAVE CARS
BY UNLOADING ALL
FREIGHT PROMPTLY

PHOENIX, Dec. 15.-The Arizona
Council of Defense has received a
large number of communications rela
tive to the difficulty now being ex
perienced at various shipping points
within the state in securing an ade
quate supply of railroad cars. This
particularly is affecting the mining
and cattle industries, with shortage
also reported of transportation fo1
forage crops. The situation is espe
cially grave where cattle are to be
shipped.
This matter has been taken up with
Chairman Epes Randolph of the trans
portation committee of the Council OF
Defense, who from Tucson has asked
that upon shippers and railway men
be urged the Importance of observing
rules that have been prepared by the
American Railway association through
it's special committee on national de.
tense. In the east observance of these
rules already has secured 80 per cent
increased efficiency of equipment
These rules follow:
1. To the receiver of freight:
(a) Purchase in the nearest market
(b) Be prepared to store the full
contents of the largest freight car.
(c) Bunch your orders so as to
mako flll1 car1Oad Iots
(d) If you can't order by carload,
arrange to pool carload shipments.
(e) Unload cars promptly.
2 To the shipper of freight:
(a) Load heavy commodities in all
cases up to 10 per cent in excess OF
the marked carrying capacity of each
car, unless special instructions have
been issued by the railroads with ref
erence to certain classes of equipment
to exceed the 10 per cent, in which
case special instructions will apply.
(b) Load lightweight or bulky
freight to full cubical capacity of car
tc) Have your shipments ready for
immediate loading on receipt OF
charge.
(d) Arrange your shipment in cal
so as to permit prompt unloading.
(e) See that packages are loaded to
eliminate damage in transit.
(f) Where you have been shipping
less than carload freight daily and
sending via transfer point, hold ship
ment two or three days, to make up
full carloads and bill to destination.
(g) Use drays or motor trucks in
stead of t'trap-caT' service and avoid
use of heavy cars for moving food
within the same city.
(h) Load in a day and time your
loading to suit departure of trains.
() Give billing agent full instruc-
tions that will permit way bill being
made up before loading is completed
Cd Consign shipment to final des
tination wherever possible, and dis.
courage shipments that require chang
ing destination in transit.
(k) Do not bill shipments by cir.
cuitous route in order to avoid the
effect of embargoes.
The State Council of Defense urges
that these rules be given the widest
publicity and be observed wherever
possible, as the condensation of the
best judgment of the principal freight
handlers of the nation. 1t is asked
also that there be reported to this

TWO MEAT[ESS
DAYS A WEEK
IS NEW ORDER

PHOENIX, Dec. 15-Coincident with
the receipt of a letter from Herbert
Hoover, congratulating the workers on
the wonderful success of the family
enrolment campaign in this state, de-
tails of new supplemental campaign
calling for further sacrifice on the
part of every loyal Arizonan were an
nounced today by Timothy A. Rior-
dan, Federal Food Administrator for
Arizona
With the Allies clamoring for al.
sistance and the problem of fe eding
the American forces in France and at
home graver than ever the nation TO-
day is facing food situation far more
serious than ever before and for this
reason the food administration feels
it necessary to ask the people to OBJ
serve Meatless Friday in addition to
Meatless Tuesday, and to make
greater efforts than ever to save
wheat, meats, sugar and animal fa;s

To make this new Hoover program
effective in every county and every
precinct in Arizona, the splendid or

securing 10000 signatures to pledge
cards has been made permanent War
rem Macarthur, Jr., state campaign
manager of the pledge card campaign,
has started the supplemental cam
paign through which it is hoped to
raise the state membership in the
food administration to 10000. To all
of the present members and to the
new members will be mailed out a
supplemental instruction card calling
for the revised program as outlined
above.
New inspiration to the workers is
contained in Mr. Hoover's letter,
which reads as follows:
Dear Mr.. Riordan:
Now that the recent family en-
rollment campaign is practically
completed with a result far ex-
ceeding my expectations, wish
to extend to you and through you
to the many workers in your
state my personal appreciation
of the spirit with which the cam
paign was waged.
With the home and member
ship cards now hanging in well
over 10000 homes, a foundation
for food conservation has been
laid which should prove of great
influence in the final result of
the war. The work already done
so successfully should sbe an in
spiration for the further spread
ing of the gospel of fod conser-
vation, and | trust that through
you the people of your state will
be brought to more complete
realization of the necessity for
conservation even to the extent of
personal sacrifice.
With renewed thanks for the
work which you and your loyal
assistants performed in the re-
cent campaign, and with hopes
that this work will be continued
for the duration of the war, with
ever increasing efficiency and
enthusiasm, | am
Faithfully yours,

One-half cup sugar, one tablespoon

sugar, two tablespoons butterine, one
egg, flour.
Mix ingredients as for cake, adding
flour enough to roll out. Be careful,
however, not to make the dough too
stiff. Press a walnut on top Of each
cookie and bake in a moderate oven.
Save the excess liquor from your
picked peaches and baste your roast

Deadly Explosive Picked Up in

MINING TOWN FEARS FOR
SAFETY FROM AGITAT0RS

Carelessness. or something worse,
is indicated in the discovery OF
large dynamite cap. powerful enough
to shatter a hand or head. or any 9th
er part of ones anatomy with which
it might come in contact, which was
picked up in front of the municipal
auditorium last evening by a capitol
employee.
The cap was first noted, lying on
the sidewalk, by the mans two little
children, who regarded it as a pretty
plaything. The cap. of unusual pow
err, had been pinched together. under
the heels Of some passing pedestrian
or by an inquisitive child, and that
it was not discharged is uneXpiain'
able.
Just why dynamite caps should be
promScuously strewed about the
sidewalks in the neighborhood Of pub
lie buildings in Bismarck, some dis
lance removed from any mines where
these deadly fulminators are used, is
another mystery. with which the Oil
