Rush at Freiaht Yards.

Congestion continues to be acute in the Putnam railroad yards, one of the busiest points on the entire New Ha- ven system. The pressure of business here is so great that talk of extend ing the yard, plans for which work have been in existence for some time, is being revised. It is possible that the work may have to be undertaken to relieve the pressure of war business passing through Putnam, one of the eight original transfer points on the New Haven system.

DAVIs THEATRE.

The Truth About the War is one of the sub c2tles to Pershing's Crusaders, the U. s. Oficial War Film, at the Davis theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It is interesting to note tha- this truth" with relation to the air program Of America causes much relief to those who have heard so much about the failure of the avia- ton program. There is nothing of faih1re in what is shown in these flms of what America has done in zviarion thus far. In fact, it Is as founding that so much has been aC- , complished in so short a space of time.
 General PerSlling and Secretary Ba- ker are shown, inspecting hundreds of American aeropl3nes in France and the American aviators are shown in action. and display the ability to take ? their place in the air at any time along with the allied airmen.
 The American machines are there now In force, the screen shows this, and fl much more impetus is given to the aviation program it may well be expected that the United States will soon have thousands of planes in the field and plenty of trained airmen to operate them. It would appear that there are enough American machines and trained fiiers over there now to take care of all the bombing, scouting and fighting planes needed over that part of the front held by the Ameri- can troops.
 This exhibition of how far the coun try has progressed in the air program is but another of the encouraging facts shown by this great war film which puts heart and confidence in the American people. That America is already taking her part and has made marvellous progress in Ter first year of the war is evident to all who see these films.
 There will also be a two-reel comedy with Fatty ATbuckle, and the latest Current Events. Three shows daily and four complete shows Saturday and no advance in prices.
