Transportation Becomes Most

Critical

Bottleneck of All|}

By ROGER BUDROW

TRANSPORTATION IS

skimming of the day's news shows that.

KING-PIN NOW. A brief Airlines have

given up half their equipment to the army. Railroads have fewer “luxury” cars for the public because they have been stripped down for troop trains.

. . . . . Am Authoritative sources say that nation-wide gasoline|im

rationing in some form or other is in the cards, despite

protests such as have been heard around this part of the aA

country. Stores and service concerns have had to curtail their delivery schedules, such as every-other-day milk delivery. Farmers are being urged to build storage bins to store this year’s crops because elevators are filling up and because freight trains will be hauling great quantities of war goods this fall. Today the WPB announced it is taking control over all imports Roger Budrow ¢o give war goods the right-of-way on cargo space. That will cut imports and forecasts rationing of such tropical products as coffee and cocoa. Depending upon how gasoline rationing is handled, new ways of transportation may have to be worked out here at home. The Baltimore & Ohio's shuttle train service for war workers at the Charlestown smokeless powder plant was a fizzle because the workers wanted to drive their own cars, a more convenient method of transportation. The Pennsylvania, which could operate shuttle trains between downtown Indianapolis and the Bridgeport Brass and new Allison factories out southwest of the city, isn't anxious to try it until there} is a demand for the service.

= = = The WPB yesterday announced another possible solution of the war worker transportation problem. A trailer-bus, built mostly by a Goshen trailer firm and a South Bend jron works, will haul 100 workers with little wear and tear on the tires because of its lightness. We may be seeing these big things on the street soon. And the staggered-hour plan for office and factory workers,

nounced last week by the Chamber 1300-1500

of Commerce, will probably prove one of the most effective means of all,

our present traffic mess will grow|1100- es pounds

NEW TRACKLESS TROLLEYS HERE

Shipment of Five Brings Company's Fleet Up To 162.

Indianapolis Railways prepared today to put two new trackless trol-

a shipment of five expected here this week. The new vehicles, which brings the trackless fleet here to 162, were ordered eight months ago in anticipation of increased business.

Cost Is $15,000 Each

Purchased at a cost of $15,000, the new trolleys are streamlined and

. will seat 44 passengers each, four

more than most of those in service now. Harry Reid, president of Indianapolis Railways, said that the utility has ordered 65 new vehicles within approximately a year. Twenty-five are yet to be delivered, the first of which is expected by Sept. 1 and

® the remainder on Dec. 1 and Jan. 1,

1943. Help Solve Problem

“These equipment purchases, if we are able to obtain 100 per cent delivery, will aid in relieving the transportation problem now approaching, but other devices such as staggered working and school hours, more off-peak riding and selective stops will be necessary in order to cope successfully with the situation,” Mr. Reid said. With the delivery of the three more trolleys this week, the railways system will include 422 vehicles— 130 motor coaches, 130 streetcars

tland 162 trackless trolleys.

FREEZING OF GERMS MAY SOLVE PROBLEM

By Science Service SYRACUSE, N. Y, June 3— Malaria germs, and probably the germs of other diseases as well, can be frozen at temperatures colder

S| than 100 degrees below zero in the

Fahrenheit scale and kept at that extremely frigid temperature for as long as seven weeks, Dr. Reginald D. Manwell, of Syracuse university here, announces. His method, so far applied only to germs of bird malaria, consists of instantaneous freezing of the germs in a small amount of the birds’ blood in a test tube by whirling the tube at high speed in a mixture of alcohol and dry ice. Thawing within a few seconds is required to avoid killing the germs when the scientist wants to exam-

: ine them or use them for other

experimental purposes. Saving of urgently needed shipping space and reduction in expense will be one result of Dr. Manwell's achievement, since germs can now be shipped frozen in small containers from one laboratory to another, instead of in the bodies of guinea pigs, birds or other laboratory animals requiring bulky cages and special handling en route.

over WFBM at 8 o'clock into a riot. The votes have to do with a P.-T. A. election and not even the sponsor stands a a chance. Shirley believes t h a t speech making alone never won a campaign and promptly calls into play a gigantic propaganda machine which, aided by her Dad’s histrionic ability, produces the earmarks of a landslide.

The courage and skill of American naval and military forces are being proved again in the course of World War II. Soldiers at Bataan, marines at Wake, and sailors in’ the Java Sea included many who were civilians only shortly before they became heroes. Organization and training made them fighting men. So it is with dollars. One way in which the commercial banks of the nation can help hasten victory is to exert every effort to place loanable funds at the immediate command of war industry and war business to speed production under direct or indirect Government
