President May Not Decide
Railroad Policy Quickly
"Washington, Dee. 37. President Wil
son may await until next Mouth before
ennouncing his railroad policy. If he
does not communicate with congress be
fore, adjournment tomorrow, tho ques
tion will go over until after the Christ
mas recess-, it was stated at the white
House today.
Meantime, the railroads' war board is
doing its utmost to prove its ability to

The latest step the board ordered is
elimination of all unnecessary travel in

of tho country's richest men have giv
en up use of their luxurious cars to
relievo already overburdened passen

While the var board does not hope to
save much car space nnd fuel from this
steji, it was ordered December 5 asj
another move toward elimination of
non-essentials, It foreshadows wide

senger travel ns a war measure. !
The president will not take any rev
olmiomiry steps in the railroad "situa
