DEALERS URGED
TO HUNT IDLE
FREIGHT CARS
Detroit Manufacturer Begins
Nation-Wide Campaign to
Offset Any Shortage
Quick and concentrated action to
ward the relief of the threatening
freight car shortage is being under
taken by the automobile industry.
The efforts at present are being <ll
- primarily against unnecessary
delays in loading and unloading and
preventing the holding of cars for
"prospective movements."
As they did two years ago, when
the freight car shortage reached an
alarming stage, Dodge Brothers, De
troit motor car manufacturers, nave
asked their entire organization, which
extends to virtually every locality iu
the United States to co-operate in the
"speed-up" campaign. A Dodge
Brothers executive commented on the
situation as follows:
"We have asked all our dealers to
notify us by wire as 'soon as they
discover that an automobile freight
car or a string of cars is being un
necessarily held up. We are positive
that hundreds of such cars are on
the sidings, particularly in the west
ern districts. Presumably these cars
are being held for "later consign
ment,' but we must eliminate the
'later' aud get these cars moving now.
We emphasized our statement that
dealers themselves should under no
circumstances lose time in unloading
and turning freight cars back to the
railroads. If every trifling delay is

SATURDAY EVENING,
eliminated the situation will be much
less severe than the present outlook
indicates and motor car dealers will
benefit to a degree proportionate with
their efforts to relieve the shortage."
It was added by the executive that
there are fewer freight cars in active
service now than at any time iu the
last three years.
The campaign undertaken by
Dodge Brothers is in line with the
advice of the Director General of the
Railway Administration, who con
ceded a few days ago that there was
grave danger of a freight car short
age. In asking shippers to give their
co-operation, he suggested prompt
loading and unloading of freight
cars, and hauling by motor truck as
the most important means of afford
ing relief.
Fuel Oil Burner to Be
Shown at Penn-Harris
A good deal of interest has been
awakened among business men in
Harrisburg anticipating the demon
stration of the new heating devices
invented by William M. Hoffnran,
which are to be exhibited in the
engine room of the Hotel Penn-Har
ris. Monday afternoon.
The threatened strike of bitumin
ous coal miners, tag ether with the
recognized shortage in anthracite
coal, gives extreme timeliness to an
invention designed to add another
fuel tp those available for ho*ne
heating anil other heating problems.
It is evident that an effective solu
tion of the use of cheap oil as fuel
has in it tremendous business possi
bilities, and H. B. Milward, whose
statements have aroused the interest
of the Harrisburg business men he
has been interviewing, is certainly
confident that the Hoffman inven
tions are such a solution.

POLES WRITING
BOOK OF WAR
Story of Atrocities Under the
Reign of Bolsheviks Is
Being Compiled
Warsaw, Oct. 18.—The Polish
Government is compiling the story
of the atrocities committed under
the Bolshevik reign in the city of
Minsk, now occupied by the Poles.
The latest, brought by an Ameri
can Red Cross worker who has Just
returned from a relief assignment
in that newly occupied city .con
cerns the murder of a woman hos
pital assistant who was rash enough
to express the hope that conditions
would improve when the town fell
to the Poles.
The director of the hospital in
question, smarting under an ill-de
served rebuke administered to him
by a surly official of the Red
regime, warned the latter that the
arrival of the Poles would bring a
change for the better. For this he
was deported to Smolensk. His wo
| man assistant, who ventured a lit
j tie further in expressing her opin
; ion, was shot into a grave on the
j dawn before the taking of the city
j by the Polish army.
When v-sited by workers of the
j American Red Cross Commission to
! Poland, the hospitals and orphan-
I ages of the city were found in such
pressing need of food that many of
i them had been obliged to close.
| One home for war orphans had
I been without so much as a crust of
; bread for more, than a week. Many
others had suffered similar priva
tions Accord'ng to reports on in
vestigations, only outside aid can
J rescue these people from the chaos
|of terror and suffering in which
; they 'are submerged.
Canadian Wool Clip
This Year Expected
to Make New Record
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Oct IS.
While the estimate is not yet com
j plete for the wool clip of Canada
| for 1919, it is officially stated that
I it promises to record the high mark
j for a decade in the Dominion. The
; 1918 output was approximately 12,-
i 000,000 pounds. The price of wool
| this year is from 40 to 70 cents per
1 pound in eastern markets for grades
; ranging to fine medium combing.
| Previous to the war there was a
! wool shortage eviden*. The war has
accentuated the shortage. During
| the period of hostilities it is esti
| mated that 60,000,000 sheep were
| slaughtered in Europe, reducing the
possibilities of the world's output
; 400.000,00 pounds annually.
The price of wool in Canada in
j 1913 was from 12 to 25 cents. With
war inflated prices of wool there are
many more farmers to-day in the
Dominion raising sheep.
! According to census figures, the
: sheep population of Canada in 1918
! was 3,052,748. This small number
I shows the depressing effects of ad
] verse conditions of former years on
: the sheep business. With millions
|of acres awaiting settlement, Can
. Ada, according to experts, has room
I for many more million sheep.

MANY ARRIVE

Henry Morgenthau and Two'
British Generals on Big
Passenger List
New York, Oct 18. With the ''
largest number of passengers to ar- j
rive in any Atlantic port on one !
vessel since America's entry into the I
World War, the White Star liner
Adriatic, from Southampton, Eng- I
land, byway of Cherbourg, is at j
anchor at Quarantine. She had a [
passenger list of 2,058, of which 407 |
were lirst class, 508 second class 1
and 1,142 steerage passengers. j
The largest number of the ar- |
rivals were Americans and Canad- '
ians who had been held up in Brit-j
ish ports by the ra'ihvay strike and '
the walkout of kindred industries |
that crippled the transportation sys- ]
tern throughout the kingdom.
Included in the cabin passenger? j
were Henry Morgenthau, formerly i
United States Ambassador to Turkey j
and his wife. They have returned I
from a personal investigation, last- j
ing several weeks, of the alleged !
Jewish pogrons in Poland. Raymond
Fosdiek, who. up to the time of his i
departure from Europe was acting ;
as American secretary for the j
League of Nations, also arrived yes- j
terday on the liner.
Major Generals Sir Anthony Bowl- |
by and Sir R. Jones, both of whom I
were noted surgeons in the British I
army, came here on the big White !
Star ship. They left here for Wash
ington in a few hours to. attend the
