figures for January 1, 1917, which the
American Railway Association makes
public today.
On November 1 there was a Short-
age of 114 ,908 freight cars; on De-
ceinbet 1 it was 107, 778, and on De-
cember 31 it had fallen to 59,892 cars.
This decrease in the car shortage
is attributed more than anything else
to the cooperative eftorts o! the In-
terSiate Commerce Commission, Ship
porn and the railroads. The latter
for the past two months have had a
special committee of the American.
Railway Association to deal with the
subject. Emergency measures have
been adopted to meet the abnormal
Situation, and progress has been
made in gelling cars out of tho con-
into the territory
where they are most needed.
The Association makes public a
Statement Showing cur Shortages and
surpluses for tho. ton ,onrs ending
