THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, FRIDAY, NOV. 16, 1917.

MANUFACTURERS WORRIED OVER EMBARGO PLAN

Dealers In Luxuries Also Perturbed Over Proposed

Rail Actions. Announcement Friday that the Railroad War Board bad recommended to the federal government the denial, of rail transportation to about 500 commodities was received with considerable concern by a number of Richmond manufacturers, who are wondering whether their products will be denied transportation in the event the government acts - on the recommendation of the Railroad War Board.

The list of commodities the board be

lieves should be denied rail transportation has not been made public

The few Richmond manufacturing concerns which are now engaged on government work are not worrying

over the situation, and manufacturers

of agricultural machinery feel reason

ably certain that no embargo will be placed against their products. It is the manufacturer who produces com

modities "which are not absolutely es

sential who is feeling nervous. Would Bar Luxuries " Even if the threatened railroad strike be averted, however, it is evident that radical action will be neces

sary to achieve and maintain the adequate transportation facilities vital to

successful prosecution of the war.

Here are the principal features of

the situation:

1. The railroads war board admitted today that the roads soon will be un

able to transport all the commercial

commodities of the country In addition

to war materials needed by the government. 2. The war board has recommended the suspension of transportation of 450 commodities deemed nonessentials and seventy-five others with which the public could dispense though with inconvenience. ' Car Shortage Acute 3. With the tremendous increase of traffic due to war preparations, and the failure of the railroads to extend facilities sufficiently, the shortage of cars is becoming acute. 4. The railroads are unable to expand equipment and obtain sufficient labor because of the drain upon the material and labor supply by the war industries. 5. The threat of the conductors and trainmen to strike for higher wages illustrates the menace of a transportation tieup that will be faced by the nation until the administration and congress effect a fundamental solution of this problem. I ImMAS AUAMMMA I A

6. Samuel Rae. president of the Pennsylvania railway, told the interstate commerce commission Thursday that the railroads need not only a 15 per cent advance in freight rates, but a government loan to build 1,000,000 cars and more locomotives.

Assorted Programs of High Merit to be Given : --. - 'S.;-Vnier Nevj Policy of the Murray Picture House . When the Murray theatre opens tomorrow, under its new policy, the management will offer an excellent and assorted program of subjects. Drama, comedy, pathos and tragedy, aare all there and in such quantity that even the most particular will have nothing to complain about. - For tomorrow and Sunday will be offered the attractive Marguerite Clark in "Bab's Burglar." a . five-part picturization of Mary Roberts Rninehart's story recently published in the Saturday Evening Post. On this picture the diminutive star has one of the greatest opportunities of her screen career for the display of hn- remarkable versatility and it is the opinion of the most critical that this play offers Miss Clark a role than can be classed as one of her best. If you are a Boarding School girl, or have-been, or ever thing of going, you have undoubtedly read some or all of the "Sub-Deb" stories which have appeared in leading publications. With this feature is shown a Burton Holmes travelog of "China of the Present Day." Recent events have directed the eyes of the world upon China and her millions of people, and while this subject will prove of great general interest, it will also be found to possess unusual geographical, political and anthropological value. Brays Pictograph containing pictorial events and au animated cartoon will complete the moving picture part of the entertainment.
