Accomplished By Board.

Some of the things the war board
had done were described as follows:
formulated probably the most sat
isfactory car service rules which the
railroads have ever had.
Established the most cordial and
cooperative relations with commercial
| bodies, individual shippers. state rail-
road commissions, manufacturers as
socations. etc, through the organiza-
ton of six departments co-extensfve
with those of the Army. and 33 sub
committees of the commission on car
service covering the entire United
States.
Through the acquiescence of the
public and the consent of state COM
| missions. 2S,656,983 unnecessary pas
senger train miles have been discon-
| tinued, resulting in saving 100000
tons OF coal per annum, and the re-
| lease Of $40 locomotives and $500
train and enginemen for freight serv-
ice.
Developed policy of relocating
cars by ordering their movement empty.
Since May orders for moving 222,027
cars have been issued, of which 1926
have been delivered or the initial lines.
This change from previous policy is the
most radical and far-reaching act that
the committee has ever authorized. II
has relieved the congested eastern and
seaboard areas and has increased car
supply on southern and western lines.
The movement has been very expensive
to the roads that moved the empties,
but all orders have been cheerfuIly and
promptly .obeyed.
I'm the eight months, April to No
vember, inclusive, the railroads have
| hauled and delivered 1,101, SIT more cars
of anthracite and bituminous coal than
for the same months in 1915, an in
crease OF Is per cent in anthracite and
Is per cent in bftuminous, over the best
record ever previously made.

DIRECT COAL RELIEF
TOWARD NORTHEAST
Government Departments Use
Rail and Water Facilities to
Aid New England.

Government departments today are
lco-ordinating their efforts to relieve the
acute coal shortage prevailing in New
England. Rail and water facilities will
be supplied literally to restore the
greatly diminished fuel supply.
Secretary McAdoo. director general
Of railroads. has ordered the immediate
release of 1900 coal-laden cars stand
ing on Pennsylvania railroad tracks
between Harrisburg and New York and
has directed that they be sent imme-
diately to New England cities.
Nine steamers, with a total coal ca
pacity of $4,000 TONS have been ordered
by the shipping board to convey coal
from Hampton roads to New England
ports till the shortage is relieved. In
addition. the shipping board will try to
supply other steamers and will divert
Directed to Move Fuel.
Stores of steam coal at the Boston navy
yard have been placed at the disposal of
fuel administrators by the Navy Depart
ment, and idle naval tugs and golfers
have been directed to transport fuel to
the affected area
The various relief measures were or
dered after Fuel Administrator Garfield
had discussed the coal situation with Sec
rotary McAdoo and Chairman Hurley Of
the shipping board. Mr.. Garfield present
ed plan OF zone shipments for Ohio and
the northeast to set aside producing dis
tr1cts in western Pennsylvania and West
Virginia to supply distributing centers in
those sections with a plan of gradually
extending the system to the whole country.
Authority granted by the director
general yesterday to railroads to dis
regard priority orders when 1t Is nee
essary to relieve car congestion is ex-
pected to expedite the movement of
coal. Priority orders, officials say,
have hampered rather than hurried
coal movement. Under Mr. McAdoos
order railroad traffic men will use their
Judgment as to what to move first, al
ways bearing in mind that coal and
food must move rapidly.
Not Easy to Work Out.
The fuel administrations plan for
zone distribution of coal could not cas-
lily be worked out with the railroads
still in private hands Under govern
ment operation fuel administration Of
fciais think it can be put into practice
successfully. Carried to the point to
which officials hope to see it operating.
1t would eliminate cross hauling of
distribution than is possible now
Every producing district would be re-
CURED to serve a particular territory.
and no contracts for the sale of coal
would be approved IL a producer sought
to sell outside of the territory allotted
to his district.
Director General McAdoo asked Mayor
Hylan of New York, who assumes his
new duties today. to make one of his
first official acts the assignment of as
many city laborers as can be spared to
the work of unloading coal now frozen
in cars at New Jersey terminals. Mr..
McAdoo promised to reimburse the city
for its expense.
The Baltimore and Ohio has put into
operation a new coal-thawing. device,
capable of handling 200 cars a day, and
it will be used by all railroads under
the general pooling agreement

Board Issues Statement.

Commissioner McChord thought the
anti-pooling laws would have prevent
ed the railroads from successfully
unionizing into a national organization.
Chairman Hall and Commissioner Clark
did not agree with him.
The railroads war board transmitted
to the Senate committee a statement of
what 1t had done and what it has tried
to do since it was created The COM
mittee had requested the board for in
formation. The statement was written
by Fairfax Harrison, chairman OF the
war board, who said, in part:
THE railroads had already co-ordi-
mated their activities before their tax
ing over by the government and for
eight months have been operated as a
unified continental system, and the in
crease alone in traffic handled by the
railroads in 1917. as compared with that
of two years ago. has been over 1885,

End Cross Haul.

Some of the things the board had hoped
to do include the following:
Il. To abolish cross-haul of coal
"2. To remove fruitful cause Of con-
gestion by securing Coordination of gov
ernment shipping agencies on the war
boards Recommendations, that a govern
shall coordinate all agencies of the gov
eminent concerned with the shipment Of
freight determine to what II any. prefer
ence in movement they are entitled, and
prevent conflicts in priority, by routing all
commercial as well as government freight
3. To produce greater improvement in
the loading Of freight cars.
TO curtaii passenger travel greatly
by imposition. through the appropriate
agencies OF sufficiently restrictive rates.
IS. To increase the common use Of ter
minals Of one carrier by another.
Among the difficulties that have
hampered the railroads, Mr. Harrison
mentioned:
First. The dificulties presented in
handling movement of freight ex-
ceeding by far anything ever expert
enced. In addition to the movement of
100000 troops. steadily increased
passenger traffic, which showed an in
crease OF % per cent in October. 1917,
over October, 1916. and increases of s
In mail and parcel post traffic
Second. The serious congestion on
eastern lines caused by the abuse of
waybtll preference envelopes by gov
eminent agents.
Third. The railroads have not mo-
tive power enough. Approximately s,4oO
locomotives and $4,000 cars are still I'M
der order, the delivery Of which has
been deferred for military reasons
Fourth. By the impressment of
steamships engaged in Atlantic coast
trafdc. the railroads have been called
upon TO transport $4,000 tons OF
freight in the last half Of the calendar
year. which heretofore has been trans
ported by water.
Fifth. The railroads are finding II
| increasingly difficult to keep their
equipment. and particularly the loco
| motives, In proper repair and efficient
skilled labor.
We have not had a. failure of CO.

try" said Mr.. Harrison

MR. HUNT SUGGESTS USING
CANE POMACE FOR FEED

Editor Leader Enterprise.
| hate to see the farmers wasting
a valuable product.
This letter is written to express the
result of my own practice in saving
sorghum and sugar cane pomace.
AS fast as the cane is run through
the crushing mill, l transfer the
bagasse to the ensilage cutter, run the
waste through that machine into the
silo, wetting with water the pomace
that it may ferment better than when
too dry. Cattle eat cane ensilage eager
ly in winter, especially if sprinkled
with peanut or cotton seed meal. I
prefer to run corn stalks through the
cutter, mixing the two products and
wetting the mass, they appear to
compliment each other. The fresher
the bagasse the better the ensilage,
run it promptly into the silo.
