The scene reproduced above is typical
of present-day conditions in freight yards
throughout the entire country - and
there's no relief i'm sight.
True, freight embargOes are easing
the terrific strain on railroad facilities
but this condition cannot be allowed to
dam the channels of business. Even Gov
ernment control cannot be expected to
produce additional rolling stock and
trackage over night.
Official Washington has placed it's
seal of approval on the motor truck and
trailer as the real remedy. CrOss-cOuntry
army motor truck trains tell the story of
their dependability and fleXibility.

AMSTERDAM. March 2.


An indication OF Germany's program
OF activities IN the East was seen today
in the announcement by the semiofn-
cial Wolff Bureau that the German
Government has now acquired free
route by way of Russia to Persia and
Afghanistan.
This announcement was evidently
based on the fact that the Russians
have evacuated Turkish Armenia and
Persia. opening up the way for German
or Turkish troops to advance toward
the frontier of India without serious
opposition
COPENHAGEN. March Q.
German destroyers have sunk Russian
transports south of the Aland Islands,
according TO information received here
The transports are reported to have

The Aand Islands lie between Sweden

Sweden by Russia In 1906 and are in
habited largely by Swedes
German forces were reported to have
occupied tho islands recently to aid the
Finns in restoring order" II was be-
lieved at the time that Germany would

The presence of Russian transports in
