N. D. Better OF For
Cars Than Neighbor
States, Milholan Says

Bismarck, N. D., Sept. 1.-THE car
situation in North Dakota is not as
serious as in Minnesota or South Da-
kota, according to Frank Milhollan,
chairman Of the state railroad com
mission. who returned from a fuel
and a distribution conference in st.
Paul "a
The reports given" he said, were
that the North Dakota roads are in
! cific and Great Northern in particu-
lar. Difficulties of flower are greater
than those Of cars. There were many
complaints of lack of cars for grain
shipping from South Dakota and Min
nesota than from North Dakota. The
need for cars is expected to grow,
however, and it is probable the north
west railroad commissions will send a
man to Washington to speed up car
distribution"
Praise for the fuel and car com
mittee cooperation between the rail.
road commissions of Minnesota, South
and Michigan was voiced by Mr.. Mil
hollan. He declared his belief that
the fuel situation is still serious and
doubts If as heavy shipments of Goa
will come from the east as was pre-.
dicted.
V. f. Smart. traffic expert Of the
frailroad commission. will remain ir
st. Paul as the representative of the
state fuel distribution agency Addi.
son Leach Of Fargo, who attended
the conference in st. Paul and ther
conferred with officials here. will leave
for Washington probably Saturday te
represent North Dakota's fuel inter.
csts before the national fuel admins.
