1t will be noticed that these figures show
that the number of tons of freight carried
one mile during the first five months of
this year was 0.6 per cent less than during
the same month last year But they also
indicate that the loaded freight car mileage
travelled in the carriage Of this freight
was 552 ,S68,5l2 miles, or SO per cent less
than the distance travelled under private
management in the carriage of nearly the
same ton mileage of revenue freight during
the same period in 1917.
A reduction in the average daily mileage
of locomotives and freight cars will also be
noticed. This is likewise due to the heavier
train load and car load 1t is not cconomi-
cally practicable to haul heavy trains as
fast as light ones, and the railroad admin
istration has adopted the policy of loading
trains to capacity and moving them on
schedules that are not too fast to be main

The Tale
OF Statistics

This is fairly complete summary Of
The Tribune's arraignment of governmental
administration OF the railroads. That the
public may determine its justice the statis-
tical statement referred to follows:

MAY INCLUSIVE
New-York tribune., 1918-08-23
No Equipment
BY Magic

Although the government has recentlv
ordered 100000 new freight cars and about
1000 engines have been under order for a
long time, to provide for the expected in
crease in the traffic, they cannot be turned
out in day. and while waiting for them
New-York tribune., 1918-08-23
Better Than
NeW Engines

The showing indicates not inetficiency but
a striking increase in the efficiency with
which the railroads are being operated.
1t Is directly due to the heavier loading
of the freight cars and the greater train
load now pulled by each engine. The aver
age carload has been increased from 2s2 to
2S.5 tons, or S8 per cent. If this ratio is
maintained it will be the equivalent of an
addition of S.S per cent or 1900 freight
cars, to the present equipment of about
100000 cars, and if the ratio Of increase
IN the train load, equal to 2.7 per cent, is
maintained it will be the equivalent of add
ing about 1850 to the present equipment of
some $4,000 locomotives of all sorts.
Surely this is better than buying new
cars and locomotives at a time when thew
can be had only at extravagant prices and
'he manufacturing energies of the country
are overtaxed to provide the things re-
CURED for the winning of the war.
instead of proving the inefiiciency of gov
ernment management The Tribune seems to
nave aoduced the strongest possible proof
OF It's en1clency and wisdom in demonstrate
ing that the Old cars and engines are being
maze TO do more work than they performed
under private management. The same
progress toward the intensive use of the
present equipment is to be found in the
report of loaded cars arriving at Phladel-
phla and Pittsburgh during the first four
weeks of July. This report is as follows:
comparative statement loaded cars and tonnage
contents arriving at Philadelphia and ttsburgh
four weeks ending July p. 1915 and correspond
ing 1our weeks previous year:
1913. 1917
Tonnage ................ 3.o23,2o7 o.7527G5
These igures show an increase of per
cent in the tonnage and a decrease OF per
cent in the ears used. The number of tons
per car in July this year is 30.2, as against
257 tons in the period last year. The
increase of 18 per cent, if it were general
throughout the country, would be the eouiv-
alent of an addition Of about 432 900 cara
to the freight car equipment of the rail
roads

this:

"How long have your men been on

"Thirty-six hours"

"Can you stop the Germans?"

PRESIDENT PREPARING
MESSAGE TO CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-With all
arrangements completed for his trip
to Europe next week, President Will
son worked several hours today on
his message to congress, which, many
officials believe. will contain the first
announcement of the delegation Sc
lected to attend the peace conference.
In some quarters the impression still
prevailed that the names of the dele
gates would be made known this
week. but it seemed more probable
these would be given first in the ad-
dress the president will read before
the joint session Monday or Tuesday
The president is expected to dis
cuss with Secretary McAdoo on his
return from the south the appoint
ment of the latter's successor as
head Of the treasury, to take office
at once. AS Mr.. McAdoo will con-
tinue in charge Of railroads until the
end of the year, II is understood
there has been less haste in naming
a director general. although the ap-
pointment probably will be an
nounced before the Presidents de-
parture from Washington.

British Naval Supremacy

Declares Churchill

LONDON, Nov. 2S.-(British Adj

a speech here.
For the third time in history the
freedom of the world against mil

the British navy-against Philip IL.

not only should We have been lost,
but all the world would have been
cast back for centuries.
IL am a hopeful and sincere advo-
cate of the league of nations. L will
do everything in my power to make
such an instrument a practical, pow
erful reality. But the league Of ma
tions is no substitute for the suprem-
acy Of the British meet.
From the battle of Trafalgar to
the end Of the nineteenth century
nearly 100 years-we were absolutely
supreme at sea. All other nations
together could not have faced US. Did
we abuse our power? Did we mis-
apply this enormous advantage? On
the contrary, we were the only ma
ton whose ports were open to the
whole world; whose markets were
unrestricted by any tariff; whose
coastwise trade was not held as
national monopoly.

is nowhere more admired than among
the nations we have overthrow.
