WAREHOUSE ROOM
Of EXPRESS CO.
INCREASED D HERE
Big Boost in Business Reason for
Move; Congestion rgely Due to
Handling Shipments Formerly
Sent by Freight.

Rapidly increasing express traffic
has necessitated the increasing OF
warehouse room for the American
Railway Express ccmpany's office
here, o. F.. Nicholson, local manager
stated yesterday afternoon
Since the consolidation of the var
ious express companies in the United
States into the American Railway Ex-
press company, the warehouse has
been in the rear of the office in the
Rock Island yards This room was
not adequate and warehouse room at
127 Kansas avenue-in the Bon Air
hotel building been rented and
will be used for a warehouse.
The building in the Rock Island
yards has been in use since 1911,
when it was constructed by the U.
S. Express company. This company
was absorbed by the American Ex-
press company in July 1914, and was
used by the company up to July, 1918.
when the various express companies
were consolidated
Express Traffic Increasing
That express traffic is rapidly in
creasing was the statement of Mr.
Nicholson yesterday afternoon. He
stated that the volume of express
business in Chickasha had increased
one hundred per cent during the past
three months.
Such condition prevails everywhere,
he said. Traffic has been increasing
in this line during the past year.
Freight Congestion Cause
Congestion of freight is given as
the cause of the heavy increase in
express traffic.
Many articles, such as clothing and
dry goods that we're shipped by
freight previous to the congestion are
now being shipped by express Mr..
Nicholson said On shipments weigh
ing forty or fifty pounds and under,
express rates, he says, are as cheap
as freight rates and the goods can
be shipped much quicker by express,
Due to shortage Of all materials
and necessities, many merchants are
now buying and shipping in small
lots, says Mr. Nicholson, while pre-
viously goods were bought in large
quantities and shipped by freight.

Railroads Now Doing Heavier 5usi-
ness Than Ever Before; Many
Cars Being Put Back in Service
Through Repair Shops.
ADMINISTRATION CAN'T
HAVE AIDS USED IN WAR
Zoning Of Coal Thing of Past; Must
Haul Many Miles; Wheat Hand
ling Presents Problem; Short
age of Funds Hindrance.

The general railroad condition il
the United States is told in a mes
sage received from railroad officials
yesterday by ]. R. Nugent, loca
Rock Island agent.
According to the communication
received yesterday by Mr.. Nugent
Walter d. Hines, director general OF
railroads, has issued the following
relative to the railroad situation.
The railroads of the country are
doing a heavier business than was
ever done in the history of the rail
roads in normal years and practical
ly as heavy business as was done at
this season in 1918 which exceeded
all previous records.
They have more cars in actual SER
vice after excluding cars held out of
service for repairs than in 1917 or
1918 while the bad order car situa
ton was greatly embarrassed by the
extensive strikes among shop men in
August, the percentage of bad order
cars is rapidly Improving.
There was an increase of 50, 456
cars in serviceable conditions be-
tween August 16 and Oct. 4, 1910
of this increase we're added in the
week ending October 4. While the
freight business is practically as
heavy as this time last year, the rail
road administration in performing
that business is unaviodably deprived
of many exceedingly important aids
which it was able to utilize last
year.
zone of these is the zoning Of coal
which last year compelled consul
mers to take their coal from nearby
mines mad thereby greatly increased
the efficiency of coal transportation.
This advantage has now necessar-
lily been lost because the coal zon-
ing was terminated last winter.
Another is that last year there was
much heavier loading of many i'm
portant commodities than it has been
possible to secure this year and the
result is that under existing condi-
the same amount of traffic than was
used last year There are various
other important respects in which
traffic was controlled in the interest
Of the war last year so as to get the
maximum results out of rail trans
Dortation And with the return OF
