PACKAGE MONTH";

The American Railway Association
working with The American Railway
Express Co., are conducting Natlor-
wide Campaign to stimulate further In
terest in good packing of shipments by
freight and express.
November has been designated as
Perfect Package Month" and all ship
ments rendered to railroad and express
carriers during this month will be close
ly inspected as to containers, packing
and marks, and special reports will be
prepared covering all exceptions.
These reports will be promptly sent to
shippers interested, for their guidance
in the proper preparation OF future
shipments. Copies of these reports
will be forwarded to the American
Railway Association, Chicago, or the
American Railway Express Co.. New
York, as the case may be, where they
will be summarized and final reports
prepared showing the total number OF
exceptions recorded and the relation
the number bears to the total number
of shipments forwarded.
AS the CO operation of the shipping
public is essential to the success OF this
Campaign. the Chambers of Commerce,
or other civic bodies of the various
cities and towns throughout the coun-
try have been requested to assist the
carriers in interesting shippers in the
proper preparation of their shipments.
Much good should result from Cam
paign of this kind, both to the Trans
portation Companies and to the ship
pers as it will, no doubt, accomplish
much in the way of eliminating loss
and damage claims against the carriers
and minimize delays to shipments and
complaints of shippers.

Federal Farm Bureau Outlines
Method Of Dividing
OUR ALLOTMENT IS INCREASED

Requirements as to how each state
shall select its federal aid roads, con-
stitute the principal new feature of the
federal highway act, of which enact
ment has just been completed, accord
ing to an analysis of the bill by Federal
Farm Bureau Federation.
To obtain part or all of its allotmen
of the $4,000, 900 of federal funds ap.
propriated for road construction for the
remainder of the fiscal year, state
must select connected road system
not exceeding z per cent. of it's entire
road mileage for improvement with fed
eral aid. This system is to be divided
into two classes of roads. one consist
ing of interstate roads, which shall not
exceed three-sevenths of the system Sc
lected and upon which not more than GU
per cent. of the states allotment can
be expended without the joint approval
of the secretary of agriculture as ad-
ministrator of the act, and the state
highway department.
The other class, consisting of inter-
county roads, will compose the remain
der of the system and receive the re-
mainder of the allotment.
The amount of federal aid received
on any project, however. is not to ex-
ceed so per cent. of the estimated cost,
except in states where more than per
cent. of the area is unapproprlated
public land. Where any state fails
properly to maintain federal aid high
way the secretary of agriculture after
80 days notice will maintain it out of
the states allotment and refuse ap-
proval of new projects until reimburse
ment is made by the state.
A new feature which provides no
state shall receive less than one-half of
one per cent. Of the fund increases
Delaware's allotment to 1855, ,624. Sew
eral other states are similarly affected.
