Instructions and Suggestion Shipper and Roads. Given Thos. K. Campbell, Frank J. Mil. Icr and H. H. Corey, constituting the Public Service commission of Oregon, have issued statements concerning the prospective car shortage, offering Miggestiuns as to overcoming what shortage may develop. , Here are their statements: . To railroads and shippers: - Owing to our unique location at the ex treme end of the transcontinental lines, and the unprecedented scarcity of ocean carriers, which will necessi tate the movement eastward of all 'of Oregon's bountiful crops by rail, the transportation situation in Oregon is now serious and threatens daily to be come acute in the extreme. Past ex perience teaches that these car short ages result in the absolute demoral ization of business, and to assist in relieving the ' present serious - short age, with its attendant damages, and preventing it becoming more acute, the commission makes the following suggestions: . ' - ;. Railroads are requested: To place all cars without unnecessary delay. To move promptly all loaded cars from point of loading to destination. To 'have necessary repairs made at once to cars requiring the same. V To pay particular' attention to the distribution of cars in order that empties may be concentrated as much , as possible near the centers of demand. To co-operate to the fullest extent with the shippers in the matter of ar ranging and routing shipments so as to move the traffic with the minimum amount of equipment. Shippers are requested: To load and unload all freight with, the ut most promptness, regardless of the 43-hour free time limit permitted by our demurrage rules. To load cars to full capacity (10 per cent above the marked capacity.) To order no more cars than are ab solutely needed. To give the railroad company im mediate notice when' car is released. To order cars in writing, stating number wanted, time when and place where desired, kind of freight to, be shipped, and the final destination. Ap plication for cars should .be made in writing to an officiul or general agent oi the railroad, or agent at point nearest the station, switch or siding wnere tne cars are to be loaded. To bear in mind freight cars are for transportation of goods and are no; warehouses, and while they are idle waiting for loading and unload ing, from the standpoint of efficiency they might as well be out of exist once. . . . Full co-operation between shippers and railroads, and with this commis sion, will do much to assist in reliev ing the car shortage situation. If shippers or consignees, who have trouble with respect to cars, will in form the Public Service Commission, at Salem, it will be pleased to take the matter up promptly with the proper railway officials. and Chamberlain's Colic.
