REALLY STANDARDIZING THI
RAILWAY FREIGHT CARS 1
McAdoo Names Committee to Pe- A via
velop Plans Ulilch He Expects C.
to Spell Economy.
"Washington, Feb. 18.?Develop- Fc
raent of plans for standard types of Ttare
railroad freight cars was assigned sepai
by Director General McAdoo to a lengt
committee of manufacturers, headed flyinj
by S. M. Vauclain, of the Baldwin Woii
Locomotive works, with instructions fon <
iu rwuuiiiicnu epeuiK'aiiUDS ior n
comparatively few types which can lTnit?
be manufactured In quantities at L. \N
cost far less than under the present w'ho
uystem of special orders. Ange
This is the first definite move- L,onR
ment of (he director general in his ki<
projected program of extensive int<>
standardization of cars, locomotives Tuesi
and other supplies and materials, as base
a means of effecting economy under LI<
government operation. |Another years
committee will be named soon to four
work out standards for engines, and party
some of these standards will be earth
adopted by John Skelton Williams, arriv
director of finance and purchases for the r
the railroad administration. the s<
Mr. McAdoo did not indicate badly
bow many types of cars he believed nefttb
practicable under nationalized unit
operation, but he predicted the plan NOP
eventually will save many millions
, of dollars to the railroads. The
standardization will not be effected
so suddenly, he explained, as to
barm the business of manufacturers
of highly specialized models of box 1,1
and hopper cars.
Another step taken by the direc
nr rpnpral In thn nrMniration a'
government management was the yor(jf
appointment of W. H Phasants. of ^
New York, to supervise operation of ^ r<i
all coastwise and great lakes ship- ^
ping lines controlled by railroads. an(j 1(
Among the lines which will be un- . },ag ^
der Mr. Pleasants' supervision are|8aja
the Old Dominion. Ocean Steamship _ ^
and Southern Pacific ships. light
Reports of the railroad adminis- the p
tration indicate that the contlnu- tried
ance of mild weather was promoting jn w]
the clearing up of congestion in the neaH
east, and the movement of corn and
other grains in the west. More than st()IV
5,000,000 bushels of corn alone have
\\ het
heen hauled to primary markets of
the middle west this year as a result (j)e ,
of the order of priority for box cars
vorce
for grain movement. In the same -n (
period last year only 2,7 7 2.000 (
bushels were moved.

master General Blakeslee urged the F<
senate postofflce committee to take ! marl
into consideration time, mileage and was

at a basis of pay. The present systern
of basing pay in mileage only,
he said, resulted iij inequalities. J
H. H. Collins, secretary of the
National Association of Third and |>n.?
Fourth Class postmasters, asked the
committee to grant more pay to post- ?
masters at the smaller towns. He
said they worked an average of 14
hours a day and asked that the
minimum for fourth class postmas- V
ters be increased from $200 to $300 Wilt
a year, and for third class $400 to deat
$5u0 a year, with percentage in- sadc
creases on the amount of business Spri
