RAILROADS ARE
STILL HAMPEREO
BY BAD WEATHER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.--Large sup
plies of coal were moving freely to
eastern househoIders and trans-Atlan-
tic shipping interests today as the re-
suit of the fuel administration clos
ing order, but clearing of the railroad
congestion still was Numbered by I'M
avoidable weather conditions.
With manufacturing plants east of
the Mississippi facing the fifth day of
the shutdown and reports here indi-
eating that the first heatless Monday
had been strictly observed, fuel admin
istrator Garfield declined to say
whether an extension of the closing
order would be necessary.
We will not cross that bridge until
we come to it," Dr. Garfield said
there will still be the nine remaining
Monday holidays. Results of the oper-
ations of the closing order have been
fully up to our expectations insofar
as the weather permitted"
The fuel administrator also pointed
out that Washington birthday, which
falls on Friday was taken into con-
sideration by the administration. when
Monday was selected for the closing
day.
Since many plants give Saturday
half-holiday, officials expect another
day shutdown in February.
Reports here said New York al
ready had on hand enough coal to fill
the bunkers of fifty vessels loaded
with supplies for the American army
and the allies and more than hun
dred ships in Hampton Roads were
being coaled rapidly. The heavy
movement of coal has taxed tug and
barge facilities heavily and plans to
commander tugs if necessary, are be
ing considered by the shipping board.
Officials, who recently sought rail
road embargo on general freight as
means of relieving congestion deeclar-
ed again that this step would have to
be taken or nOn-eSSentialS denied
transportation if the freight tangle is
to be Strengthened out. Director-Gen-
eral McAdoo declined to order the en-
barge it was learned despite its rec
ommendation by the war conference
board.

SNOW COVERS EAST

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Snow was
falling today throughout the eastern
half of the country north of Georgia
and promised to tie up the country's
transportation systems as badly as
they were before the beginning of the
five-day industrial shutdown, design
ed to aid the railroads in clearing
their lines of congested traffic and to
place coal in communities suffering
from the severe cold.
From the New England states south
ward along the Atlantic coast to Geor
gia and extending inland to the Miss
issippi river the storm RACES. 1t be-
gan during the night and the snow
fell steadily in most sections. Weather
bureau officials said it would continue
tonight.

COALLESS DAYS
REDUCE SHIPS IN
new YORK PORT

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-In the face
Of the worst ice jam in New York har
Dor in many years, encouraging head
way had been made in coaling ship:
during the five fuelless days, ending
today. A week ago, there were 81:
ships tied up at docks, while early
today there were but ITO. Thirteen
large steamships were supplied witt
bunker coal yesterday and transporta
ton officials expected that many more
steamers would be bunkered before
night.
Veteran harbor men say they can
not remember a time when the ice
menace here was SO great The ice
flows average 200 square feet, jam
ming the shore line Of Brooklyn, Man
haitian and Staten Island. Two large
transatlantic liners spent four hours
crushing through ice ten inches thich
before gangplanks could be put out
The Hudson and East rivers are filled
with floating ice cakes.
The ice conditions also have seri
ously hampered the movement of GOA
to this city in barges from tidewater
Fuel administrators were disappoint
ed because of the comparatively
small tonnage of coal received during
"heatless Monday but attributed the
deficiency largely to the unusual
weather conditions. Eighty-two tugs
crippled by the ice are tied up at dr.
docks.
In spite of an unexpected setback
due to misunderstanding of orders
whereby thousands of truckmen stop
ped work at noon yesterday Some
progress was noticed in relieving the
freight congestion. Transportation of
ficials anticipate marked improvement
in the next few days, unless severe
weather disarranges carefully made
plans.
Many OF the city's industries re.
sumed business today, having been
closed on the first of the "heatless
and voorhees," Mondays, but a large
army of wage earners had another
day of enforced idleness. in obedience
to the orders of the national fuel ad.
ministration. Local fuel administra.
tors expressed themselves as well
pleased with the results obtained by
yesterdays shutdown. The number
of violations reported was much
smaller than was predicted.
The theatres and other amusement
places, which were specially privi.
legged to remain open yesterday, felt
the pinch of the order today when they
were forced to close.

CAMPAIGN FOR
DOCS STARTED

WRIGHTSTOWN, n. J., Jan. 22-
Thousands Of lives can be saved in
France by army dogs and homing pig
cons, said Major General Scott, COM
mander of camp Dix, in starting a
campaign yesterday for those Of these
battle front auXiliaries. He urged
patriotic citizens in New York, New
Jersey and Delaware, who have Bel
gian police dogs, German sheep dogs.
or Airdale terriers, to turn over these
dogs to him for training. He also said
breeders or owners of homing pigeons
could do their bit by permitting
these birds to be used by the govern
ment in maintaining communication
between the infantry and artillery in
battle front work.
At present, there is no appropria-
ton in the war budget for the pur-
chase of either dogs or pigeons, Major
General Scott added.
