The fact that Great Northern primarily is an origi-
mating line intensities the shortage on the system. The
source of empty boxcars for use by shippers along Great
Northern is relatively small because more loaded cars
move from this railway than move to it.
The necessity for repairing a large percentage of the
empty boxcars allocated to the railway also contributes
to the shortage. Equipment which is unfit for grain or
merchandise transport is an economic liability. Regard
less of what lines own bad order boxcars delivered to
Great Northern, the railway must recondition them be-
fore releasing for further service. The owner railways
pay the repair bills-but Great Northern patrons
are deprived of use of the cars while they are in
shops.
According to the Association of American Railroads,
other major factors contributing to the shortage are: an
increase in ess-than-carload movements of lighter loads,
thus requiring more cars; shorter average hauls of other
types of freight, creating a longer average turn-around
time; the 5-day week, which stops unloading of cars
from Friday night to Monday, although railway opera
tons are on a 7-day basis.
Toward increasing the utilization of available box
cars the Office of Defense Transportation has revised
and frightened loading and unloading requirements, and
Shippers Advisory Boards continue to give the railways
effective assistance in obtaining the fullest possible use
of equipment.
When the urgently-needed Improvement in Great
Northern's boxcar supply will begin cannot be predicted
at this time.
However, the railways management believes that a
real, lasting improvement will begin only when
individual roads and car-building concerns are
able to obtain adequate materials to build the
thousands of new boxcars now on order. .

These are some Of the reasons
why hog cholera today remains the

$60,000,000 per year. These losses
could be prevented if all farmers

cholera around weaving time. But
unfortunately, there are always
some swine raisers who are inclined
to "take chance" and it is these
Unprotected herds which are tht
first victims of cholera every year,
and which remain in the commun-
ity as centers of infection anC
sources of cholera danger to other
droves of swine.
The common symptoms of hos
chClera include a tendency on the
p t of the sick animals to remain
in the house, to burrow under bed
ding, to pile up, weakness o.
partial paralysis, and persisten
scours. Often one or two hogs will
die, and ther. it will be several days

Recent legislative changes in law
again re-emphasize the advantages
of National Service Life Insurance
as protection for the veterans fami-
ly.
AS the law now stands, any per-
son who had active service between
October 9, 1910, and September 2,
1945, may take out term insurance
policy, convertible after one year to
one of the many permanent plans
now available
All the applicant has to do is to
pay the necessary premiums and
show evidence of good health. Free
physical examinations will be given
by the Veterans Administration out

The law further specifies that the
health requirement may be waived
in the case of a disability resulting
from or aggravated by service, pro-
vided the disability is less than

Record Number Of
New Freight Cars
Received By S. P,

More than 1700 new freight cars
were delivered to Southern Pacific
in August, an important boost tow
ard relieving the nationwide car
shortage, A. T. Mercier, president of
the railroad, reported this week.
Virtually all rail car construction
was banned by the government dur
ing the war, it was pointed out, and
since vi Day building of new
equipment has been further delayed
by material shortages and recon-
version difficulties of manufacture
erS.
Deliveries of new freight cars to
Southern Pacific in August were the
heaviest to date, comparing with
only 425 new cars delivered in July,
Mr.. Mercier said. Prior to July the
railroad had received only $50 of
the more than 4,O0O new cars it had
ordered a year or more earlier.
Since December, 1914, the railroad
has ordered or authorized purchase
of more than 10000 new cars for
freight service, including 5000 new
refrigerator cars for Pacific Fruit
Express Company, of which South
ern Pacific is half owner.
A total Of 1850 new freight train
cars are scheduled to be in service
by the end of this year, Mr.. MERCER
said, and deliveries of the other

Beduticians' Association to
Write History of Beauty Culture

Plans were recently completed
for the compilation Of historical
data on the Negro Beauty Gull
ture industry and the pioneers
in its field, it was diclosed this
week by the United Beauty
School Owners and Teachers as
ISOLATION.
The association, parent-body of
the Alpha Phi Omega fraternity
and sorority, disclosed that the
project was undertaken in order
that information regarding the
mammoth n d u try, which is
owned and controlled by Negroes,
will be compiled for future refer
ence. This venture will be a ma
tional project controlled by the
sororities and fraternities chap
tiers.
The United Beauty School Own
ers and Teachers Association feels
that this is one of the ways that
they can hold the Negro market
in the Beauty Culture field, and
to encourage other racial groups
to buy from the Negro Manufac-
turers.
This project is also set-up to
encourage beauticians who have
not completed their high school
and college training to re-enter
schools Of higher learning and
continue until each Beautician
finally holds a decree from an ac-
credited college.
It is also hoped by making this
international survey for the his

WASHINGTON, D. c. Dec. 49,
Everyone is now discussing the
coal strike and planning for anti
labor legislation next month. But
the problem is far deeper than
John L. Lewis" He might die
tonight; but severe labor troubles
would still be with us.
Strikes Very Costly
It is tru that strikes are very
costly,-to labor, employers, ard
to the public. As a rule, it takes
wage workers about sixty months
to make up what is lost in wages
in a 100-days strike which wins
with a 10 IL per cent increase.
This means that a 30-days strike
requires twenty months to catch
up; and that with the average
strike employees must work a.
bout two years at their average
increased wages before they gain
a penny.
Certainly, in nine cases out OF
ten, labor would be far better off
to accept a company offer OF 10
per cent without striking than to
strike and get more This is not
figuring the loss to employers in
which labor shoulr also be very
much interested because every
strike delays and postpones the
the time when employers can a.
gain make a voluntary wage in
crease. Some labor leaders are
surely misleading their union
members and robbing them OF
their money, just for the sake
Of collecting dues.
The Public Suffers Also
The innocent public which is
largely made up Of wage workers
also suffers as consumers fear
every strike. AS production is re-
duced, prices must rise or hold
up longer. The nation gets richer
only by producing more. Strikes
are the chief cause of today's
high prices. Strikes are chiefly
to blame for initiation. The real
difficulty is not with wage in
creases per Sc as this money
quickly goes into circulation and
there may be no loss to the nation
as a whole from a reasonable
wage increase of 10 per cent. But
this is not true in the case OF
strikes.
Strikes mean a loss in produc-
ton which may never be made

they have had enough flight tran.

VA does not pay for flight train
ing unless II leads directly to a

ing, under the GA Bill the airline
transport pilot course must be
handled by eontract between VA
and flight training schools.
Because this is less than a 30

to $500 of the tuition and supply
cost and the veteran must pay the
rest. VA pays a subsistence al
lowance if the veteran is eligible.
