RAILROAD
RAILROADS TO
CUT OUT LUXURY
Eliminate Observation and
Club Cars During War;
No Libraries
The Government has suggested that
as the equipment of trains necessary
to take care of travel would be in
creased, that many of the luxurious
cars run in the high-class trains ot
the big trunk lines used merely for
entertainment of the passenger and
not altogether necessary for his com
fort, could be eliminated and
cars substiuted which would
more room and accommodate more
1 assengers on the trains. This sug
gestion his direct reference to club
cars Hnd observation sleeping cars
>\hich are used only for the pleasure
of those who can afford paying for
them.
At the present time the European
railways have discontinued all classes
of luxurious trains and have discoun
tenanced all travel save that which
is necessary to the commercial in
terests of the country anfl the grim
business of warfare.
More Curtailment
White the United States has not
jet reached the extreme necessity
that European railways are forced to
rccc jnize.ench day emphasizes the
necessity of conservation of railway
facilities to pro\ ide ample equipment
and motive power to move the muni
tions, materials and troops for the
Government.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad 1 ]
has seen fit to meet the pressing re- (
quirements to the extent of eliminat- j (
ing the observation sleeping cars on | ,
nil of the trains running between j
Chicago, Washington and New York.;
and substituting in place of them j;
other sleeping cars of nigh-class j
equipment which will increase the j j
carrying capacity of the trains with- |
out Increasing the number of cars. j
,\o I.lbrnrie*
The observation library cars on'
the rear of these trains, while adding
much to the pleasure of the traveler,
take up the space which could other
wise be used by passengers who are
often deprived of the use of the train ,
for lack of accommodations, which is
not consistent with the determined
demand hat American citizens should I
deny themselves special privileges in
times as strenuous as these.
Express Companies Ask
For Small Rate Increase
Washington. Nov. 10.—Express!
companies yesterday applied to the |
Interstate Commerce Commission fori
an increase of 10 per cent., in their,
rates.
The Adams, American, Southern I
and Wells-Fargo Companies, making
the application in behalf of them
selves and other express companies,
set forth that they had suffered a
net loss of $39,848 as the result of
increases in operating expenses and
taxes during the first six months of
this year.
The companies asserted that they
are carrying on greatly increased
business "under the most trying con
ditions" and that their facilities are
taxed far beyond their normal ca
pacity. It is increasingly difficult,
their application says to obtain nec
essary labor, and because of the in
creasing demand for express and
baggage cars for movement of troops
and military supplies, it has been im
possible to obtain adequate equip
ment.
