MAY HAUL ONLY
FOOD AND FUEL
GARFIELD ASKS THAT FREIGHT
EMBARGO FOLLOW PERIOD OF
INDUSTRIAL SUSPENSION.
Recommends to Secretary McAdoo
That for a Few Days Railroads DO
Not Haul Anything But Fuel
and Food Supplies.

WashingtOn.-An urgent recOmmen-
dalton that an embargo be declared for
q few days on acceptance by the rail-
roads of any freight except coal and
food was submitted to Director Gen.
eral McAdoo on January % by the fuel
administration.
This action is imperative, Admin
istrat0r Garfield said, to assure ade-
quate movement of fuel during the bal
ance of the week, when the general
transportation situation east of the
Mississippi threatens to become worse
daily owing to the prolonged strain on
railroads of deep SHOWS and intensely
cold weather.
On January % the 'five-day period of
Industrial suspension ended, and with
Che resumption of manufacturing rail-
road officials are expecting a new food
of traffic, which the railroads cannot
handle until normal weather is re
stored.
Director General McAdOo was not in
clined to look with favor on the EN-
barge proposal. He held that under
government operation and consequent
pooling of facilities and short-haul
routing the railroads would be able to
clear all freight without priority and
without embargoes. Coal and food al
ready have preference over all other
classes of freight, he pointed out.
Mr.. McAdoo promised, however, to
study closely Dr. Garfield's figures
showing how coal production had been
curtailed in recent weeks and to take
whatever action seemed best.
Meanwhile he and DR.. Garfield set
about deyising scheme by which fuel
would be transported from mines to
consumers over the shortest possible
routes. BY this means it is planned
to save many thousand miles Of need
less hauling, and devote locomotives
and labor thus conserved to, transport
ing greater quantities so regions where
the coal shortage threatens to become
more acute. 49,

recountlng the enormous progress

zeal resources of the United States are

"'What can you do to serve meT I"
quotes the secretary, replying: 'The
answer Of this department is that 1t
has put every agency and activity
which 1t has at the service of those
departments more directly concerned
with war-inaking.
"Our men Of scientific knowledge
metallurglsts, chemists, engineers,
typographers--have found new work
at their hands.
'The patent office has been searched
for new devices that could be brought
into use to kill the submarine or limit
its destructiveness, for the plans Of
heretofore unused lethal weapons and
for the formulate of improved or un-
