U. S. Charges Germany
With Violating Truce

Washington. Jan. 29.-Charges that
Germany is violating the terms of the
Russian truce by Withdrawing troops
from the eastern front and transfer
ring them to the western battlelines
were made to-day by the War De-
partment.
The War Department made this
statement:
THE general staff of the United
States Army announces that the Ger
man military authorities are evading
those terms of the Russian truce
which provided that German troops
were not to be withdrawn from the
eastern front for use in the west,
during the peace negotiations. Ger
man troops on the Russian front are
being allowed to go home on fur
iough. These soldiers are being
transferred to recruiting stations and
sent to the western front.
The troops are taken in this way,
man by man, for two reasons-first,
because it deceives the Russians; and
secondly, because the eastern troops
have been so influenced by the Rus
sian revolutionary propaganda that
the German military chiefs have de-
cided to separate the men and scat
ter them in the unaffected western
fegion."

TRAFFIC AGAIN
RESUMED AFTER
UNUSUAL STORM
Trains Delayed Many Hours
Snow-Buried Tracks Are
Being Cleared
BY associated Press

Philadelphia. Jan. 29.--Although
traffic conditions on the railroads
were much improved to-day drifts
and packed snow in many parts of
the state were responsible for de-
lays of from to Il hours in the
arrivals of through trains from the
West. After the tracks had been
cleared of the results of yesterdays
storm it was found necessary to
abandon all attempts to run passen-
ger trains on schedule time.
Attempts were made to resume
freight service after more than 5000
men had worked to clear tracks and
switches but proved difficult. accord
ing to railroad officials, to free cars
from the snowdrifts up state. Condi-
tions We're ameliorated at many
points by moderation in the tenn
perature during the night.
Electric car traffic throughout the
state is still badly crippled and work
ers in the munition districts are eX-
periencing much difficulty in reach
ing their places of employment.

DEMAND WILL
EXCEED SUPPLY
Hudson Automobile Dealer
Says Shipping Facilities Will
Be His Chief Worry

NO one questions the demand
that we shall have for motors cars
this spring." says l.. II. Hagerling,
Hudson distributor Y
The very curtailment of railroad
facilities will make the need for
motor cars all the greater Now
that there have been official assur-
ances that there Isl a sufficiency of
gasoline there is no hesitancy in the
market on that score. The problem,
more severe than it has ever been
felt, will be in obtaining cars to de-
liver. The sales will not be among
the dealers worries this year.
Thousands of freight cars are
bottled up or otherwise held in
freight yards waiting to be unloaded.
But where to unload them is the
problem. Heavy SHOWS have delay
ed the operation of the railroads
Most of the heavy shipments are
made from the West to the Eastern
seaboard. The cars which go east
ladened with foodstuffs and muni-
tons are loaded with merchandise
II olh the EASTERN factories ana sent
west-when the goods are going to
the point where the freight car is
needed to carry another important
shipment back to ocean shipping
ports.
such important essentials as
sugar have been kept back from
delivery to eastern points. Great
sections of the country has for weeks
been threatened by a coal shortage
that has resulted in shutting down
factories, the dimming of electric
signs and in much suffering in many
places. In Detroit it has not been
an uncommon sight to see coal treas
ured in bushel bags being transport
ed to homes in limousines.
THE freight situation has grown
so acute that now even express cars
are not obtainable for automobile
shipments. The express companies
are permitted to furnish their cars
only for less than carload sizes.
1T is easy to see then just what
a demand there will be for cars
Early buyers will be the wise ones. -

The only sure way to get rid of

and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight. and by morning
