THE measures taken during the

February meeting Mr.. McAdoo re
fers to meeting of railroad and
government officials to consider and
outline plans for meeting the emerg-
ency) had the pleasure of addressing
a letter to the Ambassadors of Great
Britain, France and Italy, informing
them that loaded cars of food had ac-
cumulated to such an extent at the
leading Atlantic seaports that it
would be necessary to seriously con-
slider an embargo against the food
movement unless immediate relief in
the way of ships could be afforded. so
that the cars could be unloaded and
put back into the essential commerce
of the country
The congestion Of traffic had reach
ed such an acute stage that on Decem-
Der 1, 1917, the Interstate Commerce
Commission submitted to Congress a
report sharply calling attention to the
critical situation that faced the coun-
try. %-
"Menace to the Public Safety"
On January 2, 1918, Commissioner
Aitchson, of the I. G. c., told the In
terstate Commerce Committee Of the
Senate, discussing this special report:
"The conclusion which we all reached
was that existing conditions were in
tolerable and constituted a menace to
the public safety"
On March q, 1917, Samuel Rea,
President of the P. R. r., Informed the
Interstate Commerce Commission that
Railroad Executives had reached the
same conclusion. He said: 1--WE re-
alize that the condition of the rail
roads today presents a menace to the
country, not alone to the owners Of the
properties, but as affecting directly
the international situation"
Upon the declaration of war, April
6, 1917, the Council of National De-
Tense organized the Railroad War
Board, composed of Fairfax Harrison,
julius Kruttschnitt. Hale Holden,
Samuel Rea and Howard Elliott, and
it undertook to secure cooperation be-
tween the various railroad systems
Despite the activities Of this commit
tee. MIR. McAdoo says, the condition of
the railroads grew steadily worse I'M
til there had been an almost complete
paralysis Of transportation. On Deem
Der %, 1917, the Railroad War Board
confessed it's inability to solve the
problems of transportation.
| During this period not less than five
committees Of railroad executives had
failed to restore the proper efficiency
to the transportation system.

PREVENTATIVE MEDICINE

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventative measures. 1t is
easier and better to prevent than to
cure. Pneumonia, one of the most dan
gerous diseases that medical men have
to contend with, often follows a cold
or attack of the grippe. The cold pre-
pares the system for the reception
and development of the pneumonia
germ. The longer the cold hangs on,
the greater the danger. Take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy as soon as
the first Indication Of cold appears
so as to get rid of it with the least
possible delay. 1t is folly to risk an
attack of pneumonia when this rem
edy may be obtained for a trifle.-

THE TRUTH ABOUT
THE RAILROADS
Published BY the
Brotherhood Of Loco. Engineers
Why the Railroads Were Taken, Over

Why the Railroads Were Taken Over
by the. Government
"Why did the United States govern
ment, on January I, 1912, take over the
control Of the railroads and operate
them during the war and until Febru-
airy 20, 1e2o?" ........> -.
This question was answered by
William Gibbs McAdoo, former direct
or general of railroads during federal
control. before the Senate Committee
On Interstate Commerce, on February
2, 1922. He said:
Gin the fall Of 1912 the inefficiency
Of the American railroads made them
unintentionally, but nevertheless &C.
tua'|y, the strongest ally Of the Ger
man Kaiser. The collapse Of the rail-
roads under the burden of war traffic
had almost cut the line of commune
cation between the American army at
the front and its base of supplies"
When the United States entered the
war it had agreed to supply certain
quantities of food to feed the allied
armies and civil populations. Railroad
congestion under private management
made it impossible to keep these COM
mitments
Allied Nations Faced Starvation
On February, 1918, the situation
was extremely black for the allies"
On the Sth day of that month the Pres
ident sent to Mr.. McAdoo collective
message from the Prime Ministers of
Great Britain, France and Italy, say
ing:
CD That the bread cereals sent
from North America were in Deem
Der, 1917, 100000 tons below the am
cunt fixed by the Paris conference;
and in January more than 100000 tons
below the adopted program.
(2) That this deficit Of 100000 tons
had been caused by the congestion Of
the railroads and the lack of cars and
coal and would result in a condition
especially serious thruout the allied
states.
(3) That the failure of the rail-
roads to deliver food had already re-
suited in the rations of the Italian ar
my being twice reduced and the RAJ
tons Of the French army once; that
unless food supplies were rushed to
Europe Immediately and in adequate
quantities starvation would inevitab-
ly overtake the civil population. Of the
allies; that the armies could not be
adequately supported and that defeat
wiuld undoubtedly result. sd
The Railroad Administration, upon
assuming control, Immediately gave
its attention to this exceedingly grave
problem. Empty cars were rushed
west, loaded and then sent to the East
ern seaboard. The result was stated

the confession of failure by railroad
executives that the president, on De.
cember rs, 1917, directed the taking
over Q fthe railroads as a war measure.
'iOf the advisability and necessity
of this action there has never been a

man for the Railroad Executives be-
fore various tribunals, admitted be
fore the Senate Committee that what
has been done has been done for the
best I have gathered
from general intercourse with rail
road executives that they have all
accepted the situation as the best thing
to be DONE"
''This breakdown of the railroads did
not occur over night" said Mr.: Nc
Adoo ut resulted not alone from
lack of unifcation, but from the i'm
paired physical condition of the roads
extending over a period of years, and
from long-deferred maintenance and
improvements"

the government, the records of the I.
