MAY 20 NO. 40 FREIGHT JAM END COMMISSION AIM Rail Chief*. State and National Of ficiali Work Togetbei in El fort for Relief. Washington. May 17. The inter state commerce commisaion took its first step today toward breaking the freight blockade. Virtually all the several hundred ina|M*ctors were assigned tn aid in surveying traffic conditions at im portant gateways where the flow <»( freight traffic was clogged. The comtnisdon also expected to be fully informed on the terminal situation by tomorrow*. With increasing complaints from shippers and requests for assistance from fhe railroads, the commission Is understo >d to have determined to go into th«* freight tie up with ham mer and tongs. Officials, however, urged patience by thoar watching for immediate results, since if may require days and even weeks to start anyihing like a resumption of norm al transportation. In its railroad attempt the com mission probably will deal with local situations through individual rail roads. This was expected to last, however, only until a general scheme can be worked out by which priori ties and embargoes can be employed. Cars for food and perishables would have full preference over all others under the plan. The commission said it was keep ing in touch with the situation thru its own representatives and in co operation with the roads. The Am erican Railway Association's car ser vice has turned over to the commis sion its figures on the car supply. $453,*.<14.55 has t>een collected on the 1919 lax roll Thia is nearly 6<l per cent of the Linn county roll.
