Possibility Of Shortage Of Coal
Eliminated By Speeding Up
By Railroads.

Chicago, Sept. 8. UNITED
Press. POSSIBILITY Of a shortage
in coal. grain and essential com
modities this winter has been elm
mated by speeding up in railroad
efficiency in handling and loading
of freight cars. railroad officials
here said TO-DAY.
As a result of a campaign to in
crease mileage and loading Of
freight cars, officials said more
freight was being handled through
Chicago today than ever before.
With Chicago the railroad center OF
the country this may be taken as an
indication, officials said, that the
campaign has been successful and
that fears of coal and food famine
are removed.
John Hayden, member Of the
commission OF car service Of the
American Railway association, rep
resenting all roads connecting with
Chicago, said from $4,000 to $4,000
freight cars pass through Chicago
daily. This, Hayden said, was an in
crease Of Is per cent over a year
ago and a record in railrOading.
1T means there will be great
number OF cars available to handle
shipments Of coal and food this win
ter and prevent any famine" he
said. The number of cars available
is not known. There is still a
shortage, Hayden said, but nothing
alarming.
The campaign OF railroads to in
crease loading of freight cars and
speeding up mileage will make
available $4,000 more freight
cars.
! The speeding up movement OF
cars has already been felt by dis
tributors. According to Sol Wes-
terfeld, former vice president OF
the National Retail Grocers' asso-
citation, and head Of the retail food
distributors committee here, it will
mean a stabilization of food prices
prices are already becoming
stabilized" said Westerfield.
I'VE are beginning to feel the
relaxation in the car shortage
Goods are coming in faster now
and in more reasonable time. We
are getting them in car load lots
sometimes, now"
Westerfeld declared the available
ity of more cars spells good news
to producer, distributor and con.
sumer.

that she has the right to dispose of
them as she desires. A departure
from this policy would mean the
loss Of the nations sovereignty.
Mexico has no desire to curtail

waged there relative to the oil
question is nothing but so-called
