Secretary Of Interstate Com

to Get Cars to Moving

The question Of assigning refriger-

and miscellaneous vegetable crops is
receiving special consideration and
special efforts on the part of the in

cording TO a letter from Secretary
George b. McGinty Of the commission

by him from the commission.
Under date Of March l9 Mr.. Nc
Ginty writes the congressman as fol
lows:
Referring to your letter Of March
Is, with which you enclose twenty
one telegrams from various fruit and
vegetable shippers situated in the Rio
Grande Valley in Texas, complaining
of their inability TO obtain an ade-
quate supply of cars:
THE question of assigning refrig-
orator cars to points in the southwest
has and is receiving special consider
alton and special efforts are being
made to afford relief. 1t is hardly
necessary to say that the present de-
mand for refrigerator cars exceeds
the available supply. At the same
time there are reasons for believing
that the efforts now being made will
result in the cars being assigned to
points in the ne sszariae V.Iltss u
sufficient numbers to give the ship
pers in that locality substantial re-
lief"
On March II Mr.. McGinty wrote:
Referring TO your personal call
this morning i'm the interest Of the
Business Mems League of Mission,
Texas, advising Of the serious situa-
tion in which the shippers Of vegeta-
bles in the Rio Grande Valley find
themselves because of the inability of
the St. Louis, Brownsville Il Mexico
Railway company to supply adequate
cars for the prompt transportation of
ripe vegetables which are now ready
to move and asking that at least 5000
cars be provided ut the earliest pos
sible moment:
II would advise that the commits
sion appreciates the seriousness of
this car shortage situation and will do
everything possible to afford relief at
the earliest practicable moment"
A message from j. 5. Pyeatt, presi-
dent of the Gulf Coast lines, received
in the Valley yesterday, says concern
ing the car situation:
Reports from connections indicate
that a supply of refrigerators are now
being moved toward our line and
should reach US not later than the last
of this week. We believe now that
