WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 -7P)
The nation "is facing the great
eft transportation crisis in 10
years," ODT Director J. Monroe
Johnson said today.
The real pinch will begin about
October 15 and continue -until
May, he said, with such results
as:
1. Some factories will be -torn-pelled
to close down or reduce
operation during periods jf the
fall and winter;
2 The movement of crop will
I- strung out over a longer-than-UMial
period. The railroads Still
will be moving this year' 'Wheat
crop when the next crop ripens.
Can't Handle Traffic
Johnson said in an interview
that "the railroads simply cannot
handle all the traffic which ,'will
be offered them during coming
months. So when the storage fa
cilities of industrial plants are
filled they'll just have to close
down or curtail operations until
they can move their goods.
Normally, Johnson said the
peak demand for railroad freight
cars begins about October 15 and
i continues for several weeks. But
this year, he said, the high de
, mand will continue well into
next year.
"We shall be in a terrible fix
in transportation until Mar," the
ODT director said.
Freight Hauling Hlfh
"Right now the railroads are
hauling more freight thanatjany
time during the war. Fee) the
week ended Julv 30 the C? 'oad
ing figure was over 921,0f the
nignesi weeriiy loading since ine
week ended Oct. 12, 1941."t
But demand will reach 1,000,
000 cars a week by fall, Johnson
raid, with the result that ,75,000
cars of freight will back up'each
week for an indefinite period.
Johnson attributes the high
traffic demand to mounting in
dustrial production, the move
ment of bumper food crops and
the stockpiling of winter supplies
such as coal and ore, by homes
and factories.
