CAR SHORTAGE Is CRITICAL
None of the Promised Frieghters
Have Reached Barre.

Barre, Sept 23.-Despite the prom
Use of early if only partial relief
made by the railroad authorities. the
car shortage in the Barre district re.
NAMED extremely critical today Thus
far none of the $50 cars promised last
week have arrived, although local
railroad men believe they will begin
to appear by tomorrow. Only a few
coal cars and box cars came in this
morning.
Advices from the office OF the direc.
tor general of railroads at Washing
ton have given the car shortage in
the Barre granite industry a diffep
ent cast, according to information
given out at the Granite Manufacture
ers' association today Instead OF
the reported national shortage of cars
described unofticially by railroad men,
the federal administration declares
that the surplus has increased and
that there are more cars in commits
sion now than at any time in the past
two years. Shippers in the Barre dis
trict, therefore, incline to the belief
that faulty distribution is responsible
for the desperate straits to which
their transportation plans have been
reducsd.
sAt the Barre freight office this
morning it was said that untitled or.
ders for 60 box cars and 100 fiat cars
were booked This total of 900 is be
lievedl to represent the minimum, as
in a number of instances manufacture
ers who have waited month for cars
undoubtedly feel that it would he use
less to file additional orders at this
time. In addition to the untitled or
ders here in the city, Montpelier,
Mortified and Waterbury shippers
have a heavy waiting list.

VOTE FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR
CHILDREN

Every parent and taxpayer in Pull
man should take the time to vote AT
the school election tomorrow. Two
directors are TO be elected and the
exercise Of their official powers is OF
vial Importance to every resident of
the city, because it involves not only
the present but the future welfare of
'tbe children. The selection of "a
school director is of far more i'm
pOrtance than the selection of any
county officer to the people at large.
The work of the county officers is
largely clerical and their duties are
defined by law. The manner in
which they discharge their duties but
slightly affects the pocketbook of the
individual taxpayer. But the man
her in which school directors dis
charge their duties affects not only
the pocketbooks but the children of
the taxpayers. These directors not
only handle the financial affairs OF
their districts, but they have control
to large extent over the health OF
the children of each community
through the kind of school buildings
provided, They also select the teach
ers who exercise such "A potent influ-
ence in forming the habits and ideals
of the boys and girls under their
charge.
There are financial problems to be
solved in the Pullman district which
require directors of sound business
judgment. Some plan must be de-
yised for the erection in the near
future of new building to take the
place of the antiquated and over
crowded Edison school The high
standard of the schools must be
maintained and this invoices a care

SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED

The charges brought against Sec
rotary d. f. Houston by DR.. W. j.
Spillman, former chief OF the Office
OF Farm Management OF the Depart
ment of Agriculture, are of such a
serious nature that they demand a
thorough investigation. If they are
true Secretary Houston should be re-
moved. If they are false the farm
ers should know it, in order that
their confidence in the department
may be restored As the matter
stands at present the usefulness of
Secretary Houston has been seriously
impaired
The majority of the farmers in
this section of the country feel that
Dr. Spillman is in position to know
whereof he speaks and that he would
not have dared to publicly accuse has
former chief of such serious duplic-
ity and dereiction of duty unless he
had good and sufficient evidence to
substantiate his charges. If the Sec
Rotary of Agriculture is using his DO
sition for the benefit OF interests on
posed to the welfare of the farm
ers he has wrong conception of his
duties. If he fails to demand a
prompt and thorough Investigation of
the accusations made against him. he
encourages the suspicion that they
are true. They are too serious and
too positive to be ignored. Ii he
courts an investigation, the farmers
should withhold judgment until it is
completed and the results made pub
liz, but If he seeks 10 avoid a probing
OF the charges, the farmers have a
right to and will assume that they
are we'll founded
The function OF the Department OF
Agriculture IS to protect and advance
the interests of the farming industry
in every way possible To attain re-
suits the farmers must have conf
denee in the department and its head.
II such confidence is lacking, the use
fuiness Of the department is de-
stroyed II Secretary Houston fails
to demand an Investigation of his Of
fetal record then the farmers should
insist that he be yindicated or re-
moved from his high office.

THE Il. l.. oVERMAN MEMORIAL
Pullman, Wash,
February Is, 1919

To the Friends of Prof. Oyerman:
All who knew Mr.. Overman will
unite in recognition of his sincerity,
his earnestness and integrity of soul,
his sanity and answering loyalty to
truth. 1t was in vain that he offered
himself for active service overseas in
the cause of human liberty; but when
opportunity came for work with the
5. A. T. c., into that work he put his
heart. Thus it came about that not
loss really than those who lie lin
Flanders fields he ultimately made
the supreme sacrifice on the altar OF
freedom.
His character, his life and labors
must not be forgotten. The under
signed have therefore assumed the
initiative in the matter of establish
ing a memorial to him. The plan
proposed is this: A fund shall be
raised to be known as THE f. l..
PNtl man AtlHOl ldl Il ullN. | HE
shall be invested by the regents OF
the State College of Washington, and
the income therefrom shall be de-
voted to the purchase of books in the
fields of literature, history and poll
tics, the fields of Mr.. Overman's es-
pCcial interests 1t is our thought
that the books most desirable as pur-
chCses will be books of distinction,
rare books, not ordinarily secured by
our college library.
Those who wish to share in estab-
fishing this memorial may send such
contributions as they feel inclined to
mGke to Prof. E. c. Lincoln of the
State College of Washington. An
early response will be greatly appre-
ciatcd by the committee.

RumOr has it that Washington
State College is to have an engineer
ing unit of the O. 7. c., of the 18th
district. The formal notification is
said to be mOmentarily expected and
the work of arranging the course is
proceeding at the college, according
to statement by President Holland
published in the Spokane Chronicle
last Friday According to the Spo-
kane report the recommendation has
been made by the War Department
for the establishment here of such a
corps, following the report of Captain
John c. Mcneil acting district in
spection officer of the 18th district,
with headquarters at Helena, Mont.
There is no question but that the re-
port will be fayorably acted upon.
The work will be carried on with the
equipment of the college and will re-
quire no additional equipment or
housing.
