DELAWARE BUSINESS MEN
URGED TO AIDIRAILROADS
U. S. BOARD OF TRADE ASKS
THAT BETTER USE BE MADE

Assert That $4,000 Freight Cars Can
Be Added to Available Supply
Load Heavily; Unload Promptly
An urgent appeal to the manufact-
urers and business men of Delaware
to join in a material movement to
make better use of existing rail
road equipment as a means of pro-
viding improved transportation SER
vice was made by the Railroad Com
mittee of the Chamber of Commerce
OF the United States last Thursday.
The National Chambers commit
tee points out that the equivalent
of more than half a million cars
cep be added to the supply by closer
cooperation.
Freight traffic has increased so
rapidly in the United States during
the past few years that it has COM
pletely outgrown the carrying ca
pacity of the railroads" says the
committee. GAS a result, it is now
necessary for the roads to devise a
practical plan for increasing their
transportation service. This can
only be done by making extensive
additions of new facilities and equip
ment, including freight cars, loco
motives, yard and track terminals
or by making greater use of exist
ing facilities and equipment.
"The railroads cannot carry out
the plan first suggested because un-
der present conditions they are un-
able to obtain a sufficient amount
of new capital; nor would it be
possible for them to provide new
facilities in time to relieve the pres
ent emergency even if the capital
were available. They must, there
fore, rely on making a miximum use
of existing facilities and equipment.
with the cooperation of all the other
interests concerned-the shippers of
freight, receivers of freight and rail-
road employees.
"You, as shippers and receivers of
freight can take a very important |
part in this movement. You can
add $4,000 freight cars to the avail
able car supply by loading your cars
more heavily and loading and unload
ing them promptly. If the railroads
were obliged to buy $4,000 new cars
at the present price of about $1,000 |
per car, it would cost them $1,6O5,-
100000 per car, it would cost the pub
lie at least per cent of that amount
in the increased freight rates.

RECENT CHINCOTEAGUE FIRE

Blaze But Says He Was Employed
bV a PrOnerfv Ownar IN 10 c.


Blaze But Says He Was Employed
by a Property Owner to Do So
The recent fires which DESTROYED a
business block at Chincoeague was of
lncendiary origin. This developed at
Chicoteague, Va, when a Chinco-
league man, who had been arrested
on suspicion, testified, before a local
magistrate, that he set fire to one of
the buildings having been hired to do
so by the proprietor. The latter, he
said, had tried to sell his property and
failed. The frebug and his alleged
employer were bustled off to the AGO.
mac county Jail to await the action of
the grand jury. The fire resulted in
the destruction of the Atlantic Hotel
and numerous other structures, invol-
wing a loss estimated at $85,OOO.
The confessio ncaused a great deal
OF excitement in Chicoteague, MANY
persons particularly those who lost
property in the fire, expressing their
indignation and anger. For some
time after the fire there was specula-
tlon as to its origin; but it was not
suspected that it was the result of in
cendiarism and when the true facts
came out the community was surpris
ed and shocked. Among the buildings
in the path of the flames were: The
Atlantic Hotel, one of the oldest ho-
tells in the south, destroyed, damage
estimated at $4,000. The New Ma
rine Bank, which had not yet been oc-
cupied after being rebuilt, was almost
destroyed, estimated damage $4,000.
The homes of ]. T. Mears, w. C. Bent
ing Charles Burton and Charles jeff
ries were also destroyed. Over 100
persons were rendered homeless bv |
the fire, but they were cared for bv |
friends. Charles w. Purnell, of Cam

SHORT 100000 TEACHERS
U. S. Commissioner of Education
Points to a Serious Condition

/ - ~ OOAAhAASGAOAACA VI AANuNotAOl
Points to a Serious Condition
American public schools now open
ing for a new year, face conditions OF
the utmost seriousness" Philande1
P. Claxton, Commissioner of Educa-
tion said recently. Among the condi-
tions he enumerated are:
Lack of accommodations for 3,00O,-
600 of the army of children re-enter-
ing city schools.
Shortage of $4,000 adequately pre-
pared city and rural high school
teachers -
Shortage of $4,000 school rooms,
which at present building prices,
would cost $9,00O,000 to construct.
The fact that from one-third to
twO-fiths of American teachers "lack
adequate preparation"
1t will take a minimum of three or
four years to relieve the school room
shortage, according to Bureau of Ed
ucatiOn officials. This is due to halt
ing of building during the war, pres
ent cost of building and difficulty of
floating school bond issues.
Schools will handle the room short
age by crOwding and "relaying" pu-
pills, according to Mr.. Claxton, but at
a cost in efficiency of instruction "im-
possible to estimate"
Two remedies are proposed by the
Bureau of Education. To offset the
lack of accommodations are the erec-
ito nOf temporary or portable struc-
lures and the adoption of the "work,
study, play system"
The "work, study, play system"
contemplates the divisions of the pub
lie into two groups, one group using
the class rooms while the other PLAYS,
studies or performs laboratory, man
ual training or domestic science work.
"The nationwide adoption of this
plan would reduce the class room
shortage to one-half." Mr.. Claxton
stated. "That's from $4,000 to st.
500, but it would also be necessary to
have enlarged school auditorium, play
ground, laboratories, manuel training
rooms and other facilities"
But the cost of the necessary ma
tional school building program.
to about $4,000, ,OOO,O 900,
would even then be reduced approx
mately one-third or to a figure of &c.
OOO,OOO,OOO."
The shortage of teachers will not
be relieved until "America is ready
to pay them three or four times the |
salary they now receive" Claxton
said.
According to estimates made during
The close of the last school year there |
we're 100000 vacanies in the teach
ng stats in elementary schools and
fro mtwenty to twenty-five thousand
IN high schools.
Normal and other schools last wear
graduated only about $4,000 of which !
about $4,000 contemplated teaching"
Claxton said.
Colleges and universities reported |
that only about 5000 graduates ex-
pected to take up teaching. This in
dicates a shortage of about $4,000 ele-
mentary and $4,000 high school teach |
srs."
This means inadequately prepared |
must be put into the schools, |
according to Claxton, who estimates
hat one-third of the present teachers
ack adequate preparation.
