FRIDAY EVENING,
glnes are now in service on the
Canadian Northern, Grand Trunk,
and Canadian government lines.
The scarcity of locomotives which
was on the verge of becoming acute
last winter, is now greatly moditted.
"The supply of freight cars lias
been increased by 14,000 new cars
bought by the government for their
roads. These new cars, added to
the better loading, quicker handling
and more rapid unloading methods,
obtained through the Canadian Hail
way War Board's efforts, mitigate
the danger of car shortage.
"Last winter over 20,000 of our
cars were lost in the American traf
fic tieup. It is hoped thut this win
ter the American lines will be able
to return our cars aknost as fast
as they get them. 'Caere is more
'trackroom' this year, although the
traffic handled has been heavier
than ever. The board was success
ful in getting several heavy move
ments, such as the fuel and pulp
wood movements, well out of the
way during the summer months,
when traffic is light. This clears
the road for essential winter traffic
and the unusually heavy movement
of wheat by rail during the coming
winter.
Out' of 100,000 tons of new rails
finally uilotted us, 80,000 have been
received, and thc%e have been used
to good advantage on the main lines.
The lubor situation is satisfactory
except in so far ns the roads are still
understaffed. A special labor board
formed at the request of the Cana
dian Railway War Board, with the
co-operation of the brotherhoods, is
administering the McAdoo award
very satisfactorily.
"The temporary isolation of the
Drumheller coal fields by railway
breakdown last winter, and the con
sequent fuel shortage in. certain
prairie districts, will almost cer
tainly not happen this winter, as
tlie vital section of line has been
double tracked. The board has made
working plans for Canadian North
ern, Canadian Pacific and Grand
Trunk Pacific to co-operate in car
rying traffic in the West, should any
One road find itself overburdened.
Plans are being perfected for
further unification of terminal and
other facilities. We have reason to
believo that the railway system of
Canada is in more nearly perfect
position to face peace conditions
and the reconstruction period than
any in .the world."

Test Politics Order
Jefferson City, Mo.—William M.
| Turbett, a machinist, recently elected
j a representative In the statfe legisla
ture from Cole county, has been
summarl y discharged by tho Mis
souri Pacific Railroad with the statc r
ment that his election was In viola
tion of the Director Generic's order
that railway men cannot bold polit
ical office. Mr. Turbett will pippcal
to the Director General and "in the
meantime will continue as' repre
sentative. A test case will be made
and the Railway Brotherhood chiefs j
have announced that they will go -
the limit in fighting the discharge
order. *
Mr. Turbett was nominated on the
Republican ticket in August, two j
weeks bef<mc the onder issued by Mr.
McAdoo. m strike was proposed by
his fellow-workers, but Mr. Turbett
persuaded them to stay on the lob.
He has called attention to the pro
test made by the brotherhood chiefs]
ngpint the order. In part, the pro
test states: "This means disfran
chisement, by Executive Order No. I
42. of over 300.000 men. Railroad'
employes during a'l the years of
their service Always have understood i
that the Constitution of the United
States guaranteed to them certain
rights and privileges, the same as
all other citizens." They will resent,
they say. the attempt of any man.
either by official order or otherwise,
to deprive them of that right.
