American business men groan over rail congestion and freight delays, but for a real transporta- tion problem they should sample the Siberian brand nowadays. The miracle that 200 American railroad men are accomplishing there, ac- cording to transit ¢xperts who have just returned, can be judged from the service they are giving the Y.M.C.A, in the Far North. Three hundred cars a month are kept moving for the “Y,” most of them over a route of 4,000 miles— and return. All supplies have to be sent across country this dis- tance. At the western terminus other cars take what is left of the supplies and go south, another four days’ trip, or morth, an extra 1,000 Every two supply train of fiftcen cars covers the 4,000 miles from the Pacific to the western terminus, and seven such trains are always in motion. In addition to its supply trains, the “Y” runs club cars, movie show cars, libraries and even a dental car in which teeth are pulled and filled all the way from Russia to officers. Tt first went into action at St The corps won tweniy-one the Pacific Ocean -~ at five cents each. To make the work of these tratn- men easier, the Y.M.C.A. has es tablished trainmen’s clubs in the principal cit and every possible comfort is provided for them. They have entertainments, lecture cours- es, plenty of books and magazines and even schools, S Crosses Honor, Decorative and two Medals of SIEN OF LIGHT ARMOR ED TANKS
