OREOON __ Chicago, Deo. 16—“ Car shortage and traffic congestion are more ser ious now than they ever have been m the history of this country. Al- ready a number of schools in the Northwest have been forced to close because coal shipments could not be had. Business all over the United States is oeing injured vital ly by the existing conditions, and remedy must be bad quickly, if chaos in commerce is to be prevented.” The foregoing statement was made today by Interstate Commerce Com missioner Franklin Lane, who, with Commissioner James S. Harlan, ar rived in Chicago over the Pennsyl vania road from Washington on the way to Minneapolis, where a hear ing will be given the railroads and shippers o f Minnesota today. “ When you come to think of the freigbt-car problem, it is one of the biggest in this country,” said Mr. Lane. “ Do you know that the average speed of freight cars is only 23 miles a day? Just think of it! With the big business interests of Chicago and other citiet crying out for more cars, the ‘empties’ ar > leis urely making their way across the country, "Something is wrong, or this con- dition would not exist. I f the aver age speed made by a freight c.»r is only 23 miles a day, we might as well have the old wagon trains and oxen back. They made as good time as that, aud there were no rates or rebates or wrecks. What is the cause of this state of affairs? Well, that is for us to find out, and we hope to do so in a very short time.” Mr. Lane said the railroads evi dently were not alone at fault, as many complaints had been made that the shippers and consignors were responsible for much of the traffic congestion.
