GET 60 PER CENT CARS
THEY DRDER, PROMISE
Shortage of Cars and Inadequacy
of Roads to Handle Shipments '
t -Hamper's Busfness for Time-
'j. i
Washington, Jan. 1. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR
NAL) "It the lumbermen of Puget
Bound, Grays Harbor and Colum
bia river territory recede 60 per
1 cent of the number of cars required
; for shipment of lumber during the
'coming six months they will be In
'- fcrreat , luck," said Congressman
Johnson, after a conference, of the
Washington state delegation with
C. Kendall, manager of the car
'service section of the United States
Tall road commission.
' Kendall said he would make every ef
fort to supply for the next few weeks
v ft per cent of the actual demand. John
soil said : "The trouble Is because of a.
Ifhortaire of cars and the Inadequacy of
railroads to do the business from Puget
Bound. One or more of the transconti
! rental railroads will have to be double
tracked. Which one, and who will pay
for it. Is a matter of conjecture. In
addition, the railroads ofjf-the country
are short fully 100,000 cars In Novem
ber, 1911, the administration ordered
100,000 cars end the last 6000 of these
are being delivered Just now. Five per
.- cent of all freight cars are comp'ttely
out of repair and the number will in
. crease rapidly.
- Kendall told Senator Poindexter and
Congressmen Hadley and Johnson he
was straining every effort to keep as
'much as 40 per cent of the required box
cars going to Puget Sound and he real
ised that failure to make the necessary
lumber shipments east would not. only
disrupt business of the Pacific North
west, but .would couse business In the
entire territory served with lumber from
that sectiof to sag.

TO GET TREATY VIEWS
Inquiries Are Directed Chiefly to
Wood and Lowden, Who Have
Not Expressed Their Stand."
Washington, Jan. 1. (U. P.) Sen
ators who are determined to make the
League of Nations an Issue in the next
campaign are ready to demand that
candidates now in the race for the Re
publican presidential nomination declare
themselves immediately on, the league,
it was learned today.
Letters have been prepared to be sent
all candidates who have not yet taken
a definite stand. These Include Gov
ernor Frank O. Lowden of Illinois and
General Leonard Wood.
Lowden will be quizzed first. He will
be asked to tell whether he favors
American participation In the league
as It is established by the pending
treaty and what he would do about
withdrawal if elected president.
The Inquiries to be directed to the
candidates are to be so framed, it is
understood, that the aspirants for the
nomination will find It hard to ignore
them. :
Neither Wood nor Lowden has so far
made any definite statement Senator
Johnson, California, and Senator Poin
dexter, Washington, are irreconcilable
foes of the league and have made their
policies clear.
Of two evils we are advised to choose
the less. - Why not reject them both?
