ALL NEWS OF THE RAILROADS
R.V.MASSEYHAS
IMPORTANT TRIP
An Unofficial Report Says the
Pcnnsy Plans Big Work
in This Vicinity
General Superintendent Robert V.
Massey, of the Eastern division of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, return
ed to Altoona last night after one
of the most* important trips of the
year. He covered the entire main
line from Altoona to Philadelphia,
including the low grade line, and
that part of the di
vision between Lemoyne and Wago
Junction.
It is reported that under the di
rection of the United States govern
ment an important change will be
made in the Northern Central
tracks, between I.emoyne and Mid
dletown Ferry. It has long been
understood that only improvements
necessary to aid in taking care of
war traffic will be permitted. This
fact, it is said, means that the pro
posed changes across the river will
be rushed.
The purpose, according to an un
official report, is to provide facilities
for taking care of traffic to and
from the Quartermaster's Depot,
now under construction at Marsh
Run. One deficiency at present is a
suitable roadway for heavy traffic.
The plans, according to reports, are
to use part of tha present roadbed
now occupied by Northern Central
tracks for a roadway for vehicle
trafflc to and from the big depot
Held, and run the tracks around
New Cumberland.
To do this, there will be some big
hills to remove but. it is belief, that
these changes will give the required
facilities for the government. The
vehicle roadway, it is said, will be
fenced in, and will run under the
tracks at Marsh Run. Official plans
will not be announced for at least
two weeks, according to reports.

Federal Car Orders
Were Placed Yesterday
Washington, May B.—Orders for
70,000 additional underframe steel
freight cars to supplement the 30,-
000 contracted for several days
ago, were placed yesterday by the
federal railroad administration with
fifteen car-building concerns.
The aggregate cost is from $170,-
000,000 to $210,000,000, and the
average profit to builders Is about
Ave per cent.
The contracts were let on the same
basis as recent awards.
Together with orders already
placed, the contracts awarded yes
terday make up a railroad rolling
stock building program, which will
shortly be under way, of $325,000,
including $60,000,000 for 1,025 lo
comotives ordered two days ago.
The cars ordered yesterdav will
have steel undernames, but the sides
will be made largely of wood to save
steel for other war purposes. All
are of standard design recently ar
ranged by the railroad administra
tion.
An Additional Track
For Ordnance Traffic
Workmen are busy placing an ad
ditional track at Jednota for gov
ernment business. It is said the new
track will run from the aviation
siding to the ordnance field. It will
connect with the ordnance depot
yards, and will be used for general
freight business. /
