HOW YOU CAN HELP
THE CAR SHORTAGE


The following resolution was unan-
imously adopted by the Association
of Railway Executives in New York,
July is. 1920:
Whereas, it is apparent that under
existing conditions transportation IA
cilities in the United States, with par
ticular reference to the cars and To-
comotives, are INADEQUATE to handle
the unusually large volume of bust
ness offered for movement in the
country as whole at the present
time; and
Whereas, it will be impossible to
overcome Immediately this deficiency
by increasing the number of cars and
locomotives, and it is clear that con-
ditions require the most intensive use
of the existing facilities; and
Whereas, it is recognized that upon
release of the carriers from federal
control, not only were the cars and
locomotives in the country as whole
inadequate and in an impaired con-
dition, but the distribution of cars
as to ownership was such as to pre-
vent the greatest efficiency in their
use, and that since the termination of
federal control constant interrupt
tions, due to disturbed labor condi-
tons, which it is hoped viii cease
with the announcement of the wage
award, have seriously interfered with
the movement of the traffic and relo-
cation of cars.
Therefore be it resolved, by this
association, that all members thereof
and all other common carriers, be
urged to devote forthwith their ut
most energy to the more intensive
use of the existing equipment, and
that, as program to be followed in
this connection, they should under
take, with the cooperation of the
public, to secure for the country as
a whole:
1. An average daily minimum
movement of freight cars of not less
than 80 miles per day.
2. An average loading Of 80 tons
per car.
8. Reduction of bad order cars to
a maximum of A per cent of total
owned.
4. An early and substantial re-
ductiOn in the number of locomotives
now unfit for service; and
5. Should make more effective eff
forts to bring about the return of
cars to the owner roads.
Resolved, that all railroad COM
panies shall forward to the advisory
committee or such agency as the lat
ter may designate, reports that will
enable check to be kept currently
of performance under this resolution,
and the advisory committee shall ar
range for comparative compilation Of
such reports and make distribution to
the individual companies.
Resolved, that the advisory COM
mittee be instructed to acquaint the
Interstate Commerce Commission
with this action.
Note-While the car performance
proposed has never before been at
tanned, it is believed that such a per-
Torrance is not impossible of attain
ment if the full cooperation of the
public can be secured.

Those Bulldogs who twisted the Tigers tail," received great vel come from the Hendrix College stu dent body when they erturned here this morning. Sandy" Mcdonald who chucked the no-hit game against the Ouachta clan, was the first to aight from the coaches. He was grabbed up by the noisy celebrants who got closer to him than Ouachita's s best sluggers were able to get to his slants on that hitless day Captain Red Andrews, Farris, White and others of the Bulldog crew also had their day in the limelight The col lege band was a little late in reaching the station, but did its very best tc make up for lost time by breaking forth into couple of selections.
 The Bulldogs will have rest and plenty of it until Monday when they resume hostilites with Henderson Brown on Monday. The Reddies play ed a surprisingly strong brand of baseball at Philadelphia, and the locals will have to bag both contests here to hold the odd game of the four State Normal will have two games with the Philadelphia visitors, who will appear on Normal field Wednes- day and Thursday.

Wofford has served for several years as deputy clerk and has shus familiarized himself to unusual degree with the duties of the county officials, he has never before been a candidate for office. He is native of the county true blue Democrat, a fine accountant, an absolutely trust worthy man, and there is probably no one of the county who would con duct the office more efficiently than he Mir. Wofford's popularity and vile ac- quaintance, together with his recog. aized qualifications, will make him a formidable candidate for the position Me seeks.

NATIONS WELFARE
BOUND UP IN LEAGUE
Gov. Cox Says Economic Read
Justment and Lower Cost of
Living Depend on II.
By Associated Press TO Every Evening

BY Associated Press TO Every Evening
South Bend, Ind, Aug. l9.-National
and international economic readjustment
and the high cost of living are bound up
IN the success of the League OF Nations,
Governor Cox declared here today in
addressing large public gathering
Our safety, our economic readjust-
nent and our prosperity" all are in
volved in Americas making the league
a world force, he said He charged the
Republican Senate oligarchy" with re-
spDnsibility for delay in economic progress
and belated reduction of living costs.
THE position OF the democracy is
definite and affirmative - he said, charg-
ing ''the reactionary Republican leaders"
with being evasive. Ambiguous and hypo-
critical"
with the least possible delay after
March 4, 1921, our pledge is 70 enter
the league, making such additions as are
reassuring and helpful" he continued.
This will legally end the war; it will help
to re-establish credits. A call will be
made upon our mineral wealth and our
productive skill. We will have the ships
TO sail every sea: the supply of life's essen
tials will be equal to the demand: living
costs will be reduced What we would
otherwise be spending for guns, powder
and ships will be applied to our war debt,
and above all we will be happy in the
consciousness that war is practically inn
possible.
"'The opposition offers at the very best
prolonged delay. What project it has
as a substitute for the League of Nations
no one knows, or at least no one has ever
attempted TO describe it, or to name it.
"lf the League of Nations had been
ratified months ago, exchange would have
have been stabilized. Europe could have
started its work of rehabilitation its
countries would not have made a drain
upon our food supplies. In fact Europe
would be buying the things which we can
spare. The result OF this would be self
evident War taxes which should have been
modified or repealed when the war was
over were not touched, and the republican
oligarchy in the Senate is directly respon-
sible. 1t is hard to believe that the sena-
torial oligarehy continues its o. ,sition
o he league for conscientious reason
Governor Cox said that Senator PEN
rose was instrumental in preventing re-
duction of war taxes on the theory that
the people would blame the president
for high taxes.
