American Automobile AS
sociation to Provide
Transportation
Owners Will Give Aid
Will Lend Their Machines for
Use on Sundays Under
Proposed Plan

Free transportation by motor car
from New York to Camp Upton is soon
to be provided for the wives, mothers,
fathers and immediate families of men
under the colors at the Long Island
cantonment. whose purses cannot stand
the strain of the s2.70 railroad fare
to camp.
James A. Hemstreet, New York man.
ager of the touring bureau of the
American Automobile Association, with
a national membership of more than
100000 announced this yesterday. His
decision was made after he had read
letter to The Tribune from the wife
OF man at Yaphank, who urged that
owners of cars they did not use on
Sundays "place them at the service Of
poor people who cannot afford the fare
down to camp"
Mr.. Hemstreet at once developed 3
plan by which free transportation to
Camp Upton will be provided on Sun
days, beginning March 81. The service
will continue through the summer and
fall, and during the winter months as
long as the roads to Camp Upton are
not impas sable.
Assured of Cooperation
The American Automobile Associa-
tion has a membership of $4,000 with
in radius of twenty miles of New
York City. This includes various local
clubs, numbering about twenty-five
Mr.. Hemstreet is assured of the CO.
operation of the members of the asso-
citation in and near New York. He will
begin canvass of his lists tomorrow
and will compile statistics of cars avail
able for the service.
eve will have no trouble in get
ting a large number OF cars for the
run each Sunday" said Mr.. Hemstreet.
"Auto owners will welcome this chance
for genuine patriotic service. 1t is
mighty important at this time that the
immediate families of soldiers get TO
see their kin in khaki and thus help
keep the home ties intact. It's the
thought of the folks back home that
will take the men over the top. y
One hundred cars Will make tne nrst
run on March 81, according to Mr..
Hemstreet. Four hundred persons can
be accomn odated on the initial trip.
Later. he said, the number of cars will
be increased.
81 will send personal letters to all
the local members of the association
concerning this" continued Mr.. Hem
street. "'Then on Tuesday III go down
to Camp Upton. work out the best
route to the cantonment and prepare
maps for the use of those who drive
the cars on the Sunday runs. Just
now the roads are in bad shape. But
they ought to be cleared up by the end
Of the month.
How to Get Free Trips
an few days I'll have list of
the available cars and the Sundays on
which they can be used. Persons who
want to make the trip should write
to this Office, giving their relationship

Southern Land Congress Plans For
Continuance Of Work Stopped BY
Federal Control--President War
field Points Out Danger In
-. Present Tendencies

Savannah. Cain the Southern
Land Congress just held here, with
fourteen Southern states represented,
It was clearly demonstrated that the
great land associations which are seek
ing Southern development, and, now, a
place to locate many of the returning
American soldiers, must have adequate
support, If they are to continue their
important constructive work. .
The congress-, which was held under
the auspices Of four of the largest land
associations in the South, all of which
were established by the Southern Set
Element and Development Organiza-
ton, represented a membership OF
more than 5000, including leading
farmers in every Southern state. and
sver 25, 1000, 900 acres of land.
Formerly, this organization, OF
which S. Davies Warfeld Of Baltimore,
Nd, is president, and which has done
much toward Southern agricultural de-
velopment, was supported largely by
railroads operating in the South
Declined to Help
Since government control tof the
railroads these contributions have
been withheld; and, in a striking state
ment to the land congress, President
Warfeld said that Notwithstanding the
appeal made in a petition by ~ South
ern senators from is states, that the
national railroad administration con
tinus these contributions to the or.
xanizatton, the director general Dc
anned on the ground that contrlbu'
tons should not be made to a "pri'
vste organization not under govern
ment CONTROL
This position was taken, notWlth'
standing Maryland had granted 1t a
charter, and given it $4,000 from the
state treasury, thus attesting its pub
Hc character.
1T is indeed unfortunate" Mr.. War
field said, when an agency like this,
organized not for gain but for the
general good, and which is admitted
by the administration to be a highly
m]eritorious one,' must be discontinued
On a mere pretense in order that auto
cratic methods may be firmly entrench

ut may be natural" he said, "that
those in power should wish to perpet

as they can hold. But such an au
tocracy as congress was compelled, un
der conditions of war, to temporarily
set up, it may be safely assumed, was
intended for the purpose of winning
the wal only. And we must take care
lest we now create in this country the
very conditions which the life's blood
of millions of men has been shed to
destroy in other countries!"
Asserting that for this very reason
questions arising from the two schools
of thought - private or government
ownership Of utilities - will likely be
made political issues, and very sool
occupy the attention Of the two great
political parties, Mr.. Warfeld declared
that the people of the country must
decide upon n Of two courses: First
government ownership, under which
the railroads will seek to get all the!
can for their holdings, and w1thoul
regard to whether such ownership i.
to the advantage of the people; and
second, restored and properly regulated
private management which will aSsuN
to them better service and the benefits
of individual initiative.
my own Judgment is" Mr.. War
field said, that only through compre
hensive plans Of control and regula
ton under. private management ant
initiative, can the best results be OBJ
tanned from any of the great indus
tries of the country"
Shippers And Land Owners
Concerning the vital interests of thu
shippers and the land owners, in these
problems, Mr.. Warfield said:
"The shippers and land owners OF
the country are as much concerned II
the questions at issue whether the
railroads are owned and operated b.
the government or under private own
ership and operation-as any interes'
involved. The securities of their OWL
companies, if they are corporations
are affected; and if they are no
corporations, their business is affected
by the sympathetic effect OF any actor
that adversely affects the billions o
railroad securities outstanding. More
over, the success Of the shipper ant
land owner is directly dependent upol
adequate and proper railroad develop
ment and service"
eff there is a people to whom tn
very idea of such a system of patel
nal1sm-government ownership and al
that it involves-must be r%epugnant, /
is those of us who live in the South.
It was determined by the Congress
that the four land associations shall
take over the Southern Settlement an
Development Organization; continu
ing it's work under the suggestions O
the officers of that Organization, a
q clearing house and medium through
which to give collective expression t
the desires Of the land owners OF tn

Our tour in the front-line trench
lasted four days, and then we were
relieved by the - brigade.
Going down the communication
trench we were In a merry mood, al
though we were cold and wet, and
every bone in our bodies ached. 1t
makes lot of difference whether you
are "going in" or 'going out"
At the end of the communication
trench, limbers were waiting on the
road for us. / thought we were going
to ride back to rest billets, but soon
found out that the only time an in
fantryman rides Is when he is
wounded and Is bound for the base or
Blighty. These limbers carried our
reserve ammunition and ratiOns. Our
march to rest billets was thoroughly
enjoyed by me. 1t seemed as IL /
were on furlough, and was leaving be-
hind everything that was disagree
able and horrible. Every recruit feels
this way after being relieved from the
trenches.
We marched eight kilos and then
halted in front of a French estaminet.
The captain gave the order to turn
out on each side Of the road and wait
his return. Pretty soon he came back
and told b company to occupy billets

old stable which had previously been
occupied by cows. About four feet In
front of the entrance was huge ma

did not strike me. Next morning /
asked the sergeant major what 1t
meant. He nonchalantiy answered.:

1t simply means that in case of an at
tack, this billet will accommodate
fifty wounded who are able to sit up
and take notice. or twenty stretcher
cases."
