Industrial Chaos Moy Nation Impact Of Rail
 Strike Felt by AM
 Phases Of Life
(Ry TTNTTEn PREE9l

The nation reeled today under the impact of railroad strike which disrupted the daily lives of countless millions, threatened seri- ouS food shortages and dealt in- dustry and commerce the worst blow in history.
 Millions were stranded as the most crippling work stoppage the nation ever suffered spread over the 227, ,O00-Inile network of rails. Mail and other essential services were curtailed and industrial chaos seemed inevitable if the strike con- tinues.
 Assistant Postmaster General Gael Sullivan predicted the strike would result in "civil insurrection difficult to quell' if the strike is not end ed within 72 hours.
 Effect Felt Quickly
 The effects were felt swiftly. Within few short hours steel mills and other industries began closing down in the East and thousands were thrown out of work. Indus try's hfe-lines had been cut, and more industrial shutdowns were an- ticipated today.
 The shipment of food was re- duced to a trickle. Already house wives had begun stocking up, and large cities such as Pittsburgh and Chicago were threatened with al- most immediate scarcities of per- ishable fruits and vegetables.
 Hundreds, of thousands of travel CTS and commuters were stranded. In large metropolitan areas, com muterS dependent on the suburban service of strike bound roads had a hard time getting to work. Thou sands stayed home.
 Travellers on streamlinerS and crack trains found themselves inn mobilized in such isolated whistle stops as the desert town of Carlin, Nnv ta0lallloti0n 7Sn uy11Apn ,thn twn

sections of the Southern Pacific's Challenger came to a stop.
 WalkOut Almost Complete
 A spokesman for the Associa- tion of American Railroads said the walkout had resulted in almost a 100 percent shutdown" A few trains were being run by foremen and supervisory employees. and in some cases by members of non: striking unions. But these were only 8 few of the 17,50O passenger trains and 24,0O0 freight trains run normally each day.
 The only two major lines not af- fected were the Illinois Central, which had been under Government operation since last Summer, and the Bangor 6 Aroostock in Maine.
 Here were some of the effects felt by basic industries:
 COAL-Industry spokesmen said coal production, already far below normal because of the coal mine dispute, would be choked off com- pletely within 24 hours if there are no cars to haul coal from the mines
  after it is dug.
 STEEL-The industry was throt- tied by the combined effects of the rail walkout and the coal dis pute. Bethlehem SteeIs Sparrows Point plant, largest of its type on the eastern seaboard, prepared to close at once,: forcing about 1900 into idleness.
 FOOD-Meat packers said there would be almost no meat" be- cause stockyards and packing plants depend almost entirely on rail shipments.
 M. w. Thatcher, general man. ager of the Farmers Union Grain Terminal Association, said 25,OOO,- 900 bushels were stored in plains states elevators awaiting shipment for export, and that millions of people in foreign countries will die.''
 Striking engineers and trainmen agreed to haul only milk.
 NEWSPAPERS -NeWSprint short ages were felt immediately in some areas, notably St. Louis, where the Globe-Democrat and Star Times announced they would suspend all advertising except death notices for the duration of the strike.

best be taken 10 increase exports
OF American cotton"
To the average member OF the
industry. the cost OF all this ac-
tivity is small, Mr.. Johnston de-
clared. AS an example. he said that
the farmer is asked to contribute
ten cents on each bale OF cotton
ginned. This dime Is paid TO the
ginner who in turn relays it To the
Council TO be put TO work in build
ing and strengthening cotton's
markets. he said
Other interests merchants,
warehousemen, seed crushers, and
spinners-are making proportion
ate contributions, all of which go
TO make up cotton's war chest
'The individual dime a bale can
do little in cotton's fight" Mr..
Johnston acknowledged. 1T is only
when every member OF the indus
try pays in his share on every bale,
that the results are apparent in
great and lasting benefits TO the
industry. FUN cooperation by all
can and will assure cotton's fu-
ture."

Physicians Urge That
Dogs Believed Rabid Be
Kept for Observation

An increasing number of people
have been reporting to Coolidge
physicians for treatment OF dog
bites. according TO medical an
uouncement this week The prob
lem physicians face is to prevent
rabies in people bitten by rabid
dogs. and whether or not the ami
NAL is rabid can only be deter
mined by an examination of its
head, 1t is impossible to tell
whether the dog is diseased in the
early stages OF rabies and the ami
NAL should not be killed until he
shows definite signs OF the dis
ease. physicians state.
II a person is bitten and the dog
is killed Immediately the labora-
tory will usually report negative
findings il is stated. and the doc
tor Is unable TO tell whether the
animal was diseasp or whether
the person bitten should receive
the series OF injections TO prevent
the disease.
Instead OF killing the animal 1t
is urged by physicians that the
dog be held in pen for observa-
Ition. II IL has rabies, marked
symptoms will devdop in five to
ten days and the dog will die
within twn waeks N IL safe fOr
a person TO wait for this period
before starting treatment, unless
bitten about the face, as the in
cubation period for rabies in hui
mans average forty days
II a physician asks the owner
OF a dog to kill the animal and
send its head 10 the laboratory.
the head should be packed in ice
before shipping. as decay sets in
rapidly in hot weather. The head
should be taken direct, or shipped,
to Arizona State Laboratory state
vantageous to take the head direct
10 the laboratory physicians state,
as ii is more apt to arrive in
proper condition If gotten there
soon after the death of the ana
NAL. Above all, II is urged by
physicians. that any dog which
bites a person be kept for observ-
alton and not killed

Cotton Industry
Claims Position
Is Best in Years
National Cotton Council seeks
support against challenge Of
artificial fibers.

United support of the industry
wide program TO maintain a high
level OF cotton consumption through
research and promotion is the only
real means OF preventing a recur-
renee OF the disastrous prewar cot
ton surpluses. Oscar Johnston.
president OF the National Cotton
Council. said today in message
to the cotton interests OF Pinal
county and the surrounding area.
Explaining that although cotton's
position is the most favorable IN
many years. the Council president
said that severe challenges 10 cot
ton from artificial fibers. paper and
cheap foreign growths constitute a
major problem which can be over
come only through an intensnica-
ton OF the cotton industry's pro
gram OF research and sales promo
ton.
There Is no question as TO the
tremendous versatility and adapta-
bility OF the cotton fiber and seed. ="
Mr.. Johnston said. "our competi-
tors are fully aware OF the great
initial advantage held by cotton.
which last year supplied 76 per
cent OF the worlds fiber needs.
AT the same time, the compeu-
ton is spending millions Of dollars
annually to improve their products
and To tell their story TO the ma
thon's consumers. Surely. the cot
ton industry can do no less than
give its products the same oppor-
tunity."
During l9i7. cotton will need to
take advantage OF every opportun-
ity IL 1t is to keep the pace with
competing products. the Council
leader asserted,
Fortunately, our industry has
bunt solidly during the past seven
years" Mr.. Johnston said. Even
now legislation is before the Con-
gress which will provide cotton
with a research fund OF a size
which will keep our lint and seed
abreast OF the competition.
Through the efforts of the
Council, cotton has achieved high
position in the field OF fashion.
Women, who a decade ago scorned
cotton except for kitchen dresses,
now accept IL as the smartest fab
ric for round-the-clock wear.
Again, through the Council. the
industry has built great new mar
kets for cotton insulation. a product
which but a few years ago was in
the laboratory stages. Even now
the potentialities of cotton lami-
mates as a high quality construc-
ton material are being fully ex-
plored.
I'm the field of production and
marketing, the Council has worked
increasingly to make the fullest
contribution TO the development
OF new machines and new prac-
tices which will lower the cost OF
producing and distributing the crop.
THE industry and the Council
now are making definite progress
toward rebuilding the overseas cot
ton markets which we once en-
joyed. The Councils foreign trade
director soon will make a personal
survey of the European markets
to determine just what steps can
