CONGRESSIONAL RECORD
FOR MEMORIAL LIBRARY

RICHLAND, Jan. 27.-The World
War Memorial Library at Richland
has recently been the recipient of
some excellent reading matter to
add to the growing collection. This
was the Daily Congressional Record
from Washington
Congressman Charles r. Crisp was
the donor and the gift is doubly APP
preciated for the value of the papers
themselves and also for the reason
that each congressman is allowed
only a few daily copies to send out
to his friends. The American Legion
Auxiliary feels honored that he
should have given one to them for
their library.
Accompanying the first edition re-
ceived was cordial letter from Mr..
Crisp saying that he had seen a no.
tice in the Americus Times-Recorder
about the Library and deemed it a
/ pleasure to be able to contribute
these Records.
These Records are read with in.
terest by number of the patrons of
the library, particularly by tho
| World War veterans, who by this
means can follow daily the action
taken on the adjusted compensation
bill for ex-service men and also on
other matters of interest to them.

Reauisitioned equipment, however,
until it is delivered, is of no benefit
to the man who has reported at

Had the authorities waited until
they had the school equipped and
organized before attempting to move
men in for training, much of the
slump in morale and the criticism
that has resulted might have been
avoided.
And had the official announce

IDLE.

The railroads report they have
2,283, ,908 freight cars on their lines,
of which 64G,637 are idle.
There are two reasons for this
idleness.
The first is seasonal. Freight al
ways moves lightly in January.
The second reason is that freight
rates are so high they are prohibi-
tive for q normal movement of busi-
ness. Henry Ford seems to DE the

The solution Of the railroad prob
