ACTING ON REoUEsr or
FOOD ADMINISTRATION
Movement inausuratsd For Purpose
Of Preventing Congestion Of hsss at
understanding to Induce, Farmers
to Ship Only Hess Of Finished
Wsisht-Plan Antsdatsd Arr,isties.

Davenport Feb. ll.--rhat the rail-
roads in regulating the shipments of
hogs are simply carrying out instruc-
lions OF the car service section OF the
railroad administration, Ia the expianA-
ton Of the Milwaukee, according to a
letter received today oy q. r. Bliss
from the division freight and passenger
agent of the company at Dubuque.
The railroad section in turn is act
ing on suggestions made by the food
administration OF the government,
which has been trying 70 regulate the
movement OF hogs so THAI there would
not be cong sstion at one market and
u scarcity al others. This plan was
adopted on Dec. as and was really pre-
pared before he armistice was signed.
Hogs were arriving al the market
centers faster than they could be
handled and n order 10 control the
situation II was decided TO introduce
a system for Individual line embargoes.
The plan was submitted 10 the regional
directors of the railroads for execu-
tion. .E. .
According D these plans the stabi-
lization committee OF the food admin
stration has determined daily the
rumber of carloads of hogs, estimated
on a single decs basis. that could be
absorbed by the markets each day.
This information was transmitted
from WASHINGTON thru the transpor-
tation department Of the food admin
istration with the aid of the car SER
vice section and the regional direc-
tors
The terminal manager al each mar
ket has determined the number Of car
loads of hogs which could be readily
ass.milated and this information in
turn has been transmitted TO the
department heads to be telesraphed
TO the regional directors. The allot-
ments Of cars have been furnished &C
cord!ngly. The railroads have there
fore had no voice in the matter eN-
cept;ng to carry out the instructions.
By this arrangement an even flow o.
hogs has been maintained with the re-
suit that the price has been steadied
at the market centers. Some tempo
rary hardship has been worked at
shipping points where this arrange
ment does not seem to nave been
understood.
In some localities hardship to in
dividual stock raisers has been
avoided by inducing the growers to
ship only the hogs of finished weight.
The growing pigs have been held back
so long as they were still susceptible
Of increasing in weight In this way
there has been no loss and only the
heaviest animals have been sent TO
market where this arrangement was
in effect. In this way hogs that have
rea ched the 800 pound limit have been
given preference and porkers under
$50 pounds have been taken only
where the car limit was not reached
by the heavier animals. In sections
where this plan has been carried out
there has been no confusion, it is said.

TIE KING
THE KID

San Francisco-This ought to be
q short story and it's title ought to
be THE King and the Kid"
The King is Albert Of Belgium.
The kid is Richard Siprelle of San
Francisco. eleven years old. The
King had entered his automobile
after his official reception at the
City Hall here and no doubt
thought himself safe, surrounded
as he was by secret service men,
soldiers. and police. Enter the
kid: leaping on the running board
OF King Albert's machine, he
thrust into the Kings hand
Thrift Stamp with card on which
to paste it.
King Albert" said the kid to
the King. don't you want a Thrift
Stamp?" The boy with his natty
overseas soldiers cap In hand
smilingly awaited his answer. The
King took the card and stamp; said
Thank you," and the incident
in the Kings life and the epic in
the kids life closed then and there
with forward lurch of the auto
mobile, leaving the kid behind.
I just wanted the King to
KNOW" said Richard, what a
chance America gives US kids to
learn how to save so that when the
King gets back home maybe he
Will make Thrift Stamps for Bel
gian kids. The newspapers said
that l wanted two-bits for the
stamp but l didn't. / am going to
write the King a letter and see II
he won't send me his photograph
with his name on it."
Needless to say, Richard Siprelle
is in the movies. SO if you see a
picture of the King in his automo-
biie with kid on the running
board, you will know all about it.
