Embargo 4 From Page One | Psa Mt Continued 1 Rha as a result of cold and lack of ma- terial. Tho shipping program is far be- bind, and new delays in obtaining tonnage mean more difficulties in keeping up the stream of troops and supplies to the war gone, it was ex plained. Should the plants be forced to sus pend, thousands of employes will be idle, with the government paying the bill, officials said. In these circumstances the fuel administration has appealed to Mo- Adoo to call for a general embargo on all freight shipments aside from that of vital war supplies and fuel Cold Weather Continues Continued cold weather today brought with it reports of critical suffering {n many communities, and a situation at some points worse than that which existed before the Garfield order went into effect. ‘Weather continued to hamper tho national railroad today, but Director General McAdoo declared he was con- fident of success. Zoning of coal shipments in accordance with the Peabody plan, whereby coal would held for consumption where it is mined, is a probable step. Elimina- tion of cross-hauling is being planned under McAdoo's direction. Further suspension orders are in prospect. It is pointed out that Washington's birthday falls on Fri- day, February 22, with Saturday a half holiday, and Sunday and Mon- day workleas days, anyhow. Urgent requests to industry and business to close entirely on thore| Frisco Water Front four days would serve to give an- other breathing spell at what is usu ally the bad weather zenith in the East. Lincoln's birthday falls on Tues. day, February suspension might be brought about then with less annoyance than the Tecent one, it is suggested. Both of these dates are being con- sidered as timely for launching an other conservation order. Addition of 200 locomotives from the Baldwin shops within 30 days will help the situation, the railroad administration declared. ‘These 1o- comotives were built for European service, but cannot be shipped be- cause lack of tonnage prevents, McAdoo's action followed insistent demands for it by the fuel adminis tration. It was declared to be vital if material and lasting results in breaking the Eastern freight jam were to be accomplished. McAdoo took the step because he agreed that it was “absolutely necessary.” Threatened tie-up of the shtp- building program and suffering at many points influenced his decision, The embargo, McAdoo declared, would last only until the weather moderated, The war supplies which are exempted from the embargo will be only those specifically designated by the war department. These lines will concentrate on movement of coal into New England, New York harbor and other points and on re- turning empty cars to mines.
