to the Nation

London, Jan. 6.-Premier Lloyd
Georges speech to the delegates of
the trades unions on Saturday is char

making a historical epoch in the war
The Weekly Dispatch asserts that it is
courageous call for unity in the ma

ant, minority who have been en-
deavoring to drive a wedge between

Voice of the People
The Sunday Times says the most

the most discomforting to the Prus

it as mot an utterance Of either mere
statesmen or a political party, but as
the considered uttcranccs of the Brit

The National News says: "If there
ever was any doubt about the things
for which the manhood of our empire
has been glorio.l*ly making a great
sacrifice such can no longer exist" 1t
adds that the Importance of the
! speech was greatly increased by the
reason that it was delivered to the
representatives Of labor. The. news

adds:

veniencc and hardship on these ac-
counts will be far smaller than the
inconvenience and hardship which our
people as a whole are suffering on ac-
count of the undue, tying up of rail
road equipment, and will be very
small indeed compared with the men
ace which the widespread tying up of
equipment causes to the health and
comfort of the people and the success
ful conduct Of our war operations.
Appeals to Patriotism
Il therefore appeal to every citizen
to accept in spirit Of hearty coopera-
tion the increased charges which will
be imposed, and I especially appeal to
every shipper or consignee, as a patri-
otto duty, to employ every possible
effort and expedient (even though it
involves unusual and special arrange
ment adm additionaD, to load and un-
load freight cars with the least pos
sible delay, in order that the existing
congestion may be cleared up before
the new demurragc rule goes into eff
feet"
In approving the filing of new de-
murarge tariffs the Interstate Com
merce Commission took action for the
first time on request of the director
general for higher rates.
Trains Withdrawn
About one-fifth of the through pas
sengcr trains on Eastern railroads
were withdrawn from service today
with the Director Generals APPROVAL
and within a week or two many other
passenger schedules will be curtaled
Disarrangement of passenger sched-
ules in the last week, Assistant Direc-
tor Smith reported, was promoted
largely by the number of persons re-
turning home from holiday visits. He
added: "a shortage of labor at engine
house terminals is preventing engines
from being turned promptly and get
ting back into service.
Tonnage Ratings
"The tonnage ratings of trains has
been reduced on account Of cold to ex-
pedite transportation of coal and food
stuffs. Embargoes and diversions are
being employed wherever necessary
and possible.
"a heavy fog through the Pittsburg
district, accompanied by low tenn
perature is greatly interfering with
switching operations end train move
ments, which, with the shortage of la
Dor, causes loss of ground there. The
labor situation in the Pittsburg dis
trict is acute.
"There is plenty Of coal at Hampton
Roads, but ships are slow in unload
ing, due to the severe weather and to
frozen condition Of the coal"

FOOD SITUATION IS
TROUBLING ALLIES
Problem More Grave Than 1t Has
Been Since the War
Began
WORSE WITH THE TEUTONS
And Herein Lies the Only Ground for
Optimism in Viewing
Situation

Washington, Jan. 6.-Thc food sit
uation in the Allied countries of Eu-
rope is graver than it has been at any
time since the beginning of the war,
and is giving American government
officials deep concern. Official re-
ports picture extreme food shortages
in England, France and Italy. The
fact that conditions in Germany and
Austria are far worse offers the only
ground for optimism in viewing the
situation. In England and France the
situation is described as critical in a
cablegram to the food administration
today from Lord Rhondda, the British
food controller, which concluded with
these words:
"I view the situation with grave
anxiety"
Conditions in France
Yesterday cablegram from the
French government said that the
wheat crop had been requisitioned,
and that the bread ration would be cut
to allow only seven ounces of bread
daily to all persons except the very
poor and those doing hard manual
labor. In Italy conditions are not as
good, perhaps, as either in England or
France.
Compulsory rationing will be start
in England Immediately, with meats
the first commodity to be put under
control. Distribution Of butter and
margarine will be taken in hand next,
and other foods will be added as they
become scarcer. All Of the principal
foodstuffs will be rationed by April.
