FREIGHT CAR

N. p. Official Says Less Freight
Cars on Tracks Today Than
+ Month Ago

w. A.. Mcdonald, local Northern
Pacific agent has received a letter
from the traffic department of tha
company advising him of the serious
hess Of the freight car situation
While many have been thinking tina
the freight situation is improvei
nevertheless on the Northern Pacifi,
there are less cars on the track.
today than there were a month ago
The, officials OF t,.e company II,
alizing the serious position the peopl'
Of this section would be in case q
an acute shortage of freight cars, have
filed a petition with the Interstat,
Commerce Commission at Washing
ton, asking for relief so as to enable
the railroad! to provide the farmers
stock raisers and manufacturers O.
this section with cars. g.,
Startling Figures
At the middle of June the company
had box cars representing 56.S pei
cent Of their ownership, they nov
have 54.3 per cent The Northern
Pacific owns approximately 28,000 bo,
cars, including $4,000 which could be
made suitable for grain loading. Thc1
now have in their possession 15,
900 cars and it is safe they say, tha
less than half of them are suitable
for grain or flour loading; only 4,80(
of them are Northern Pacific cars
The record of past years, prior tt
Federal control, shows that they usu
ally had about 80 per cent of thei1
own box cars at the beginning of thu
grain shipping season. 1t was pos
>sible for them to make three or foul
round trips per month between grail,
loading stations in Minnesota, NORTH
Dakota, and Minneapolis or Duluth
Foreign cars delivered to connec.
ing lines are not recoverable under
car service rules and therefore it, Is
serious handicap using foreign
cars and keeping them fit for grain
loading.
As to stock cars they own 227O and
have on their line today 1888. 1t is
believed however that the Interstate
Commerce commission will provide
them, with sufficient cars to take
care of the rage stock movement.
As to refrigerator cars they own
1873 and have in their possession
2443 cars, or so per cent of owner
ship They feel confident that they
will secure sufficient cars to take
care of the heavy perishable freight
movement. They also state that
their present car supply is smaller
than the car supply of other roads
because of the disproportion of their
exports and imports.
Officials Statement
j. G. Woodwork, an Official in the
traffic department makes this state,
ment to the people of this section:
"The situation calls for exercise OF
the greatest patience and forebear'
ance on part of all concerned-crit-
icism and complaint will. accomplish
nothing. We believe that the Inter
state Commerce commission has auth.
ority to restore our car supply and
believe that authority will be exer-
tised. In the meantime it is our duty
and the duty of shippers to make the
best possible use of the cars which
are available: 1t is a crime to un,
derload cars under present conditions
or to unnecessarily delay them IN
loading or unloading or in the move
ment from loading point to destina
tion." E
