HEAVY SHIPMENTS OF FREIGHT ARE
 BEING MADE NORTH

SEATTLE, Jan. 21.-Heavy ship ments of Alaskan freights continue to tax the freight capacity of all northbound steamships. Much ot the freight destined for the Jeffer. son last trip had to be left behind as her holds were full Some of this freight will be on the steam this freight was taken an the Cor dova now northbound, while the balance was shipped on the steam ship Northwestern, sailing January 16.
 The freighter Ketchikan is now loading a cargo of coal at the West Seattle bunkers. This shipment is to be rushed to Unalaska, where a serious coal shortage is threatened. The Cordova which sailed January 12, proceeded to Nanaimo, there rounding out her cargo with several hundred tons of coal for Juneau and Cordova.
 The Pacific Steamship Company has announced that upon the com pletion of the present charter voy. age in the service of w. R. Grace & Co.,, the steamship Admiral Good rich would return to the Alaska ser vice.
 The Admiral Goodrich is now on her third voyage to South American West Coast ports for the Grace com. pany, but the heavy Alaskan freight demands for cargo space caused the owners to decline a further charter as her carrying capacity will be needed for the forthcoming Alaska season. The Admiral Goodrich is due here February 16.
 The return of the steamship Cura- cao to the northbound service is eX pecter to assist in relieving the con gestion. This vessel has been ex- tensively repaired, and the addi- tion of staterooms for eighteen ad ditional passengers made to her ac- commodations. She will be ready for commission January 16 and will be returned to the Southeastern Al |aska route. now covered by the steamship City of Seattle.

CODMOTHERS
 NOT DESIRED
 BY GOVERNMENT
Red Cross in Juneau Has Been Asked to Pass the Word Along
 to Others.

If prospective soldier godmoth- CTS" there be in the city of Juneau, is their doom, for the Red Cross has been asked to an nounce that the War Department looks with disfavor upon the god mother idea, and that godmother let ters to a soldier protege, while they may be prompted by a kindly spirit of helpfulness, are, nevertheless, un- desirable.
 It has been found that letters of this type have so filled the mails that official or otherwise important communications have been delayed and the postal machinery has been hampered in the performance of nee essary work. It appears, moreoevr, that the soldier is not permitted to communicate with strangers, nor does he have any time to carry on ex- tensive correspondence. Under these conditions, the receipt of letters re- uuiring reply, is more distressing than helpful to him, and the War De- partment finds itaself obliged to frown upon the efforts of letter-writ- ing fairy godmothers.

MIR. McAD00'S STATEMENT AS DIRECTOR GENERAL OF ALL AMERICAN RAILROADS

Secreary McAdoo, as Director General of Railroads, has made the following statement:
 This new task is of great magni tude and difficulty. It can not be done in a moment, and it can not be done at all unless the people of the United States, as well as the officers and employees of the rail roads, give to the Railroad Director their intelligent and patriotic sup port. I earnestly seek the coop eration and assistance of every good citizen in this great work.
 The operation of the railroads as thoroughly unified system is of fundamental importance to the sue cess of the war Without it, we can not get the effective use of our resources. The supreme test in this war will probably come in the year 1918. Victory will depend upon our speed and efficiency. We can get neither speed nor efficiency unless the railroads are equal to the demands of the situation.
 I can only say at the moment that the problem will be taken hold of vigorously, and that plans and policies will be announced from time to time as rapidly as it is pos sible to mature them. Meanwhile the business will be conducted through existing railroad organiza- tions with all the support and power of the Government asserted in behalf of more efficient and sat isfactory operation.
 The Director General of Rail roads, upon invitation of the Inter- state Commerce Commission, has ac- cepted offices in the Interstate Com merce Building. The commission has also placed at the disposal of the Director the entire work and facilities of the commission
