650 Trams Halt
Under U.S. Order
Chicago. Jan. 6 itPi The
tion's railroads cut 'more than 650
passenger trains from their sche
dules today in compliance with
guvernmeni order to conserve
dwindling coal stockpiles.
The cancellations, effective mid
night . Sunday, will affect hun
dreds of thousands of passengers,
especially commuters in big city
areas, a survey showed. .
The cancellations complied with
an order by the interstate com
merce commission to save fuel in
view of the three-day work week
imposed by John L. Lewis and his
United Mine workers.
The ICC ordered coal-burning
roads with less than a 26-day coal
reserve on hand to cut passenger
traffic by one-third. Eastern
roads were hardest hit. Most
western roads use diesel locomo
tives in long-haul passenger op
erations and generally were not
affected.
- Spot Check Made
A spot check showed that 21
railroads already had announced
cancellation or consolidation of
645 trains, and the total was ex
pected to mount.
Many of the cancellations were
on branch line or local service
runs, and their discontinuance
will be felt mostly bv commuters.
In Chicago alone, the Chicago
t iNortnwestern announced can
cellation of 39 trains used by com
muters and the Milwaukee road
cancelled or consolidated 14.
A check of scattered 'cities and
states showed that coal suDDlies
ior industry and tne public
ranged from almost critical to
plentiful.
