cit is not too much to say that the
great transportation system of the I'm
tied States has broken down. 1t is a
gigantic wreck today; even travel mas
become difficult, " hitchcock said.
AS for the fuel situation, Hitchcock
said that lack of knowledge, lack OF
transportation and lack Of harmony be-
tween the fuel administration and other
functions of the government were the
cause of the breakdown.
If there had been some authority
he said, (which could have brought
the fuel administration into close CON
tact with the mining and labor interests
of the country and with the war indus
tries of the country, as well as into con
tact with the shipping board and other
branches of the government, much of
the present breakdown could have been
prevented.
s'The present condition of shipbuild-
ing is nothing less than shocking he
said, turning to another angle of the
situation. All who are informed as to
the present supply of our shipping were
thunderstruck at the statements of See
retary Baker before the military af-
fairs committee.
"His sanguine predictions as to our
ability to ship men to Europe and to
supply them when they are there, are
exaggerations Of the widest sort. We
find that for supply alone it will re-
quire five million tons of shipping in
constant use. Where is that coming from
and when is it eoming9
''The secretary of war is so out of
touch with the shipping board and ship
ping authorities and shipping informa-
tion that he makes a statement that is
absolutely preposterous.
Failure to coordinate the shipping ia
cilities with other branches, he said,
chad caused 100000 tons of freight
to pile up waiting for ships and in New
Orleans last week there were 100000
tons of shipping with only $4,000 tons
of food and feed to load them

Chamberlain measures, Eenator Hitch
cock, Nebraska, delivered a terrific in
dictment of the war department, ship
ping board, fuel administration and the
railroad control.
He charged Secretary Baker with
"gross exaggeration ~ regarding the
number of American troops to be in
France this year; and stated that the
shipping situation rs Shocking" and
transportation "chaotic."
Administration leaders, fired to high
heat, replied to these charges. Senator
John Sharp Williams characterized
Hitchcock IS undertaking" as part of
the German game"
"If the president hasn't brains
enough to win the war, we can't give
them to him sy legislative action" Viii
liams shouted.
Following Williams, Senator Reed,
Missouri, added fire to the conflagra-
tion, beseechIng the senate not to call
its members friends of the kaiser, -
whatever the cause.
While this debate grew personal and
heated, real war measures found their
way from committee TO the floor of the
senate and house.
Secretary Baker warned that "speed
up'' measures must follow here the re-
ported labor difficulties in Germany.
Provost Marshal General Crowder an
nOunced the summons to training of A.
500 more men, about half of those re-
naming from the First draft.
