STEELTON AND NEARBY
THINK FOOD IS TO
BE CONFISCATED
Misunderstanding Makes thej
Work of Taking Canvass
Difficult
I
The ward committees in charge ot!
making the canvass of housekeepers
under direction of Mrs. W. F. Darby
in the food preservation campaign
of the government have not had as
smooth sailing, or been as successful
so far, as was the canvass for Red
Cross members.
The principal reason assigned Iter
this apparent failure has been a
misunderstanding on the part •of
borough housekeepers, many of
whom, it Is said, have been under
the impression that the canvassers
were going to find out how much
food of all kinds were stored In the
various homes, and that after the
canvass would be completed, a large
part of this home-stock would be
appropriated for the use of the gov
ernment.
In this respect. It Is alleged, the
true idea of the purposes of making
this canvass had not been made
known to the borough housekeepers
prior to the beginning of the can
vass, and this fact has caused the
various ward committees consider
able trouble in the way of making
explanations.
Notwithstanding the handicaps of
the local workers, fully 200 signa
tures have been secured since the
work started and this number is ex
pected to be considerably augmented.

RAILROAD
ONE CHECK ONLY
NOW NECESSARY
New System on Pennsy Saves
Travelers Time and
Trouble
I Travelers on the Pennsylvania lines
are now able to have baggage check
ed through to destination. The new
system which has been in effect for a
month Is proving quite popular and
will continue until further orders. It
means also a saving of time and
trouble for travelers.
Heretofore the custom has been
to first get a transfer check when
the baggage is taken from the home.
Then exchange this check at the sta
tion for a railroad check to the point
of destination, and on arrival have
the baggage recheeked to the hotel
or residence desired.
One Check Only
All this is now eliminated and the
corps of baggagemen at tfio Penn
sylvania Railroud station under Ed
ward Koenig, are ready to save much
time for travelers. One check is now
all that is necessary. Simply tell the
destination, and hotel or residence,
and on arrival at the point of desti
nation, the bagKage will be there.
Looking after the baggage in
i plenty of time will be a big help in
getting it promptly at the end of a
trip, Baggage checked a few min
utes before train time will be delayed.
Requirements to give full value of
contents and answer other questions
take time and travelers will find It
a convenience to do the checking
early.

EFFICIENCY AID
IN CAR SHORTAGE
Statistics Show Big Improve
ment in Freight Traffic;
War Board Factor
"The statistics now available dem*
j onstrate that the reduction of the
net car shortage from 148,627 cars
1 on May 1 to 105,127 on June 1, or
about 30 per cent., was duo to In
creased efficiency in railway opera
tion," says the Hallway Age Gazette,
"While statistics regarding the
volume of traffic handled in May are
not yet available in complete form"
| the Railway Age Gazette adds, "an
Indication of the increase in the
amount of business for wliieh the
railroads were called upon to furnish,
cars in that month is afforded by
the freight earnings of the roads that
have already reported their month
ly earnings to the Interstate Com
; merce Commission.
"One hundred and forty-eight
: roads in all parts of the country
| have filed their May earnings with
the Commission, and these roads
, showed an increase in freight reve
! nues of 10.14 per cent. in May a£
; compared with April.
War Board Factor
• "This increase in freight revenue!
indicates a corresponding increase
j in the total amount of freight car
, ried, and is the best possible evi
dence of the results being gained
j from the work of the Railroads' War
Hoard and its subcommittee, the
Commission on Car Service.
"The new car service regulation,
under which boxcars are virtually
pooled, were put into effect by order
of the Railroads' War Board on April
26, and since thut time the Commis
sion on Car Service has ordered
those railroads on which cars have
accumulated in congested territories
to turn over to roads on which there
has been a shortage, cars to the
number of over 56,000, which have
been sent largely in trainload lots
to ihe points where they have been
most needed.
"Figures from fifty-one per cent,
of the mielage of the railroads in
the United States show that they
carried over three billion more tons
of freight one mile in April, 1917,
than they did in April, 1916, an in
crease of 16 per cent., and that this
was done with an increase of but
4.3 per cent, in locomotive miles and
with but five per cent, more freight
car miles. The average trainload
was increased 66 tons-—a remark
able achievement—and the average
carload was increased 2.4 tons.
