UTILIZATION OF
'RETURNS LOAD"
1SNOW PLANNED
Chamber of Commerce to
Study Transportation by
Truck Trains

A Returns Loads" bureau is be-
ing organized in the Harrisburg
Chamber of Commerce through the
recommendation of the Manufactur-
ers' Council of the Chamber, work
ing in cooperation with other
Chambers of Commerce throughout
the East, 1t was announced this
morning.
The purpose of the bureau, is to in
crease the efficiency of freight carry
ing trucks which every day come to
Harrisburg and after delivering
their freight make the return trip
unloaded. The return loads bureau
will attempt to see that the trucks
are utilized on their return trips by
being loaded with freight.
Wasted Energy
Similarly 1t is pointed out, load
ed trucks are sent from Harrisburg
to other points. In the majority of
instances, it is said, these trucks
make the return trip empty. The
large waste of energy and serious
economic loss through carrying a
load only one way is readily appar-
ent. The utilization of this power as
war economy measure is the pri-
mary purpose of the return loads
bureau.
The movement will not be one of
competition with the railway car
riers, Warren r. Jackson, secretary
of the Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce said this morning, but rather
supplementary to them because or
dinary shippers must necessarily
wait until essential requirements are
taken care of by the railroad COM
| panies.
Railroad transportation is be-
coming more and more congested,"
MIR. Jackson added, land the ordi-
nary business requirements of the
merchants and manufacturers very
properly have to give way while the
railroads transport war munitions,
war supplies, coal and food for the
people of this country and the allies.
The return loads bureau will aim to
assist the railroads and express COM
| panies by relieving them of the
burden of short haul traffic"
Reciprocal Relations
Reciprocal relations are to be es-
tablished with the Chambers of Com
merce in other cities where return
loads bureaus are in operation and 1t
| is expected that the Chamber,
through the medium of this depart
ment, will be able to be of service to
Harrisburg merchants and manu-
l facturers, as we'll as to businessmen
elswhere.

MAY INCREASE
VALLEY FARE
TO SEVEN CENTS
Railways Company Directors
Go Into Session Late
This Afternoon

Final action on the proposed in
crease of fares on the lines of the
Valley Railways Company from five
to seven cents will likely be taken
at a meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the company to be held late
this afternoon.
This is the monthly meeting of the
directors and is scheduled to be
held in the offices of the company
at Lemoyne. The outcome of the
meeting, c. H. Bishop, president of
the company was unable to forecast.
He was of the opinion that the rate
increase would come before the
board of directors and in all proba-
bilities some definite action would be
taken.
Mr.. Bishop said that the fare in
crease has been the subject of dis
cussion at the monthly sessions of
the board for several months. The
directors never proceeded any fur
ther than to discuss the move, Mr.
Bishop said. An official statement
on the proceedings of the meeting
will be issued this evening, it is un-
derstood.
There is much opposition to the
rate increase on the West Shore.
The West Shore Firemen's Union at
a recent meeting appointed a COM
mittee to learn why it is necessary
to increase the rates. If an increase
is made, officers of the Union de-
clare they will demand the extension
of the transfer zone to include all
West Shore towns. Camp Hill coun-
Gil has authorized it's solicitor to
look up old ordinances to ascertain
whether or not there is any agree
ments on file between the company
and the borough that would prohibit
an increase.

SUGAR RATION
TO BECUT TOTWO
POUNDS A MONTH
Portion Served in Hotels and
Restaurants Is Also
Restricted

The Dauphin County Food Admin
istrator has not yet received the su-
gar order from the Federal Food
Administration restricting the allow
ance of sugar per person to two
pounds rather than three. but is pre-
pared to enforce it when it arrives.
1t is expected momentarily.
The order was issued by the Fed
eral Food Administration at Wash
ington last night. and limits the use
of sugar to two pounds per person
from August to January 1. Pub
lie eating houses are limited to two
pounds per person per niney meals.
The reduction became necessary
when the domestic sugar crop
proved a disappointment, and the
supply from Porta Rico was below
normal. Lack of shipping has pre-
vented a free movement of sugar
from Java and other distant sources
of supply, while 5O,oO0,000 pounds
have been lost in submarine sink
ings.
Conservation Necessary
The reduction is necessary to meet
the pledges of Herbert Hoover, Ma
tional Food Administrator, to the al
lies. England is on a two-pound
France, pound and a half, and
Italy a one-pound compulsory ra-
ton, and have lately become unable
to meet even these rations, and have
appealed to the United States for
aid. In addition the American over
seas army has drained the nation OF
much of its sugar supply.
No further reduction was made In
the soft drink allowance, which Is
already limited to fifty per cent. The
food administration thinks the two
pound limit on domestic consump-
ton will meet the increased de-
mands.
While the limit of two pounds per
person per month remains volun-
tary. it is pointed out that every
state will be supplied with sugar on
an allotment basis, and for every
householder who uses more than his
share, some other householder in
that state must suffer the defici-
ency

plenty of money-more than over
before, indeed, and that they are
willing to pay fair rentals for decent
houses. The great complaint is not
so much with the rents that are
charged for good houses as that there
are no houses to rent.
Big Demand
For example. there is big de-
mand for houses renting from Slo
to $50 a month, but none to be had.
Families whose earning power has
increased desire to better their sur
roundings. but have no place to go.
Newcomers in temporary quarters
cannot find homes to meet their
needs and men who have procured
work here cannot find houses for
their families. AS an illustration,
the Telegraph has in its possession
the letter of a former Huntington
man who desires to bring his family
to Harrisburg but cannot because
he has searched the city in vain
for suitable dwelling. This in
stance might be multiplied many
times.

And so it goes. No opportunity
