Most of the crops-last year, AS, 900
carloads-were moved in trains of
about IFS cars after reaching the main
line. Empty cars-about 100000
were returned in trains of similar size.
To have moved all of the Great
Northern's traffic last year on
70-car trains would have required
$4,000 additional trains. 1t would
have been physically impossible to
have moved last years crops over
the Great Northcrn's main line
within the time shippers wanted
their products moved.
Instead of your having the dependa-.
BILE transportation you are accustomed
TO. you could not have depended on
anything between late August and
sometime after the first of the year.
That is what the Train Length
Limit law will do TO you.
The Train Length Limit bill-the
real purpose of which is to create more
jobs for rainmen-already has been
passed by the Senate. 1t is now before
the House of Representatives.
Unless you are willing to 60 back
to the days of car shortages and
embargoes, you will do well to find
out how your Congressman stands.
1t has happened before. 1t can
happen again.

1t Can Happen Again

Of the many disasters that can befall
farmer, car shortage, or an embargo
perhaps cap the list. For if he raises
good crop and prices are up, the crown
ing misfortune is to be unable to ship it.
1t has happened before. Elevators
glutted. Warehouses bullying. Crops
piled up in fields. Losses amounting
to more than the cost of transportation.
Of course, that was long time ago.
With the increased efficiency of the
railroads-mostly matter of long,
fast trains-you have taken it for
granted that it could not happep again.
But it will happen again if Con-
gress passes the proposed law to
limit the length of freight trains
to 10 cars.
Your crops, for the most part, move
to distant markets over one-lane road
ways-single track railroads. Trains
have to meet and pass at sidings. The
more trains, the more meets" and
the more delays.
Remember too that most of the
crops in the territory served by the
Great Northern ripen at about the
same time. This results in a traffic
peak each fall, when the railroad s main
lines are taxed to capacity. Take for
example, wheat. The Great Northern
moved $4,000 carloads last year. One
fourth of this was loaded out In two
weeks.

Civic Club Presents
Program

On Feb. q, Washington's birth.
day, the Civic club presented a
short comedy called, God Winks,'
at an assembly, Tuesday. The story
hinged about an antique cup and
saucer owned by the Cover fam
lily; one from which tradition says
that General Washington once drank
tea. Cover, the patriarch, was played
by Pershing Gooselaw; Mary Lenore
Martin was the housekeeper; Mary
Janet Pival was the none too well
come daughter-in-law and Pat Bar
rett took the part of dealer in
antiques. Miss Ruth Loucks sang
a group Of patriotic songs, and Mr..
Haugland led the assembly in the
national anthem.

BY the members of the Freshmen
Glass of Libby High School
Editorial

Two days ago the United States
celebrated the birthday of one of
the most important characters in
her history, George Washington. If
by some strange chance he should
come to life for few weeks now,
what would he think of the country
of which he is known as the
father? What would he think
of plans to change the Constitution,
crop control, forest conservation, re-
lief and labor problems, and the
CCC? Would he approve of our
modernisms? So much progress has
been made by our country since his
day that there is no doubt that he
would be proud Of it.
