KORMAX Schudels' Inc. r.TDTC fnr kiinrir Wrftrkr W(i HIES LattEr' Freight Tangle Likely to Take Weeks to Clear Even though the second eastern railroad freight embargo may be ended at midnight Tuesday night, it is going to take many more days and better weather to end the acute situation that exists and it may even be spring before conditions resemble normal. The present condition is having an effect that backs up all over the country. Throughout most of 1944 statistics indicated railroads were a day behind in their freight movements but by the end of the year delays had grown to four and five days and since the start of the present year, conditions have become much worse. One big food shipper in Chicago says that it now takes 12 to 14 days to get cars of freight from the West Coast compared with six days in normal times and 10 to 11 days for products from Florida compared to four days in normal times.

One large system reports it has one million bushels of wheat and almost half that amount of corn backed up on its lines waiting to move. Many Factors Contribute One large Chicago mail order house reported several carloads of merchandise arrived in Chicago and stayed in Chicago yards eight days before the cars were set at the unloading platforms. One Cleveland industry had a car of war materials shipped from the Pacific coast Jan. 15 and arriv- UNUSUAL OPPORTUNITY Nationally known Old Line Accident and Health Insurance Company, licensed in every state and beginning its Fiftieth year in public service, desires to appoint a General Agency in this territory that is interested in actively developing Accident ond Health Business.

Groff, Aurora, a half-brother of the James', was informed that Fred, too, was reported dead. The second obituary was written. With Fred back alive and safe all the problems still aren't solved.

He is due for an army discharge, he said, but first he must prove he is the Sgt. Fred L. James. SWPC Offers Veterans Aid The Smaller War Plants Cor. will help the veteran who wants to go into business for himself in four specific ways, it was announced today by Ralph Col-burn, manager of the Decatur district SWPC.

The four ways are: (1) loans for production, (2) aid in securing surplus property, (3) technical advisory service and (4) aid in making use of patents and inventions. "We can make small business loans for war or for essential civilian production," Mr. Colburn said. "While we cannot make loans for service businesses such as stores, gas stations and repair shops we have a wide knowledge of small business loans and can advise veterans where to go." The SWPC, inasmuch as it has direct and intimate contact with disposal agencies, Mr. Colburn said, can also help war veterans in locating particular types of surplus war property and arrange for purchases on credit.

"The veteran going into business for himself is likely to face technical problems." Mr. Colburn said. "The SWPC can place the accumulated technological knowledge of many fields at his disposal." Further information may be obtained from the local SWPC office in the Standard Office building, 124-132 South Water street. Wife Kills Tri-State Trailways Bus Driver Cape Girardeau, Feb. 4 (AP) Elmer Luther Garner.

28, a bus driver for Tri-State Trailways, was shot and killed early today in his home and police sergeant John Penn said that Garner's wife, Mrs. Billie Joe Garner, 22, admitted the shooting. Mrs. Garner was quoted by Sgt. Penn as stating that her husband came into the house carrying a bottle of liquor and began choking her and she pulled a pistol from underneath a pillow and fired.

A coroner's jury returned an open verdict, finding that Garner died of a wound from a gun held by his wife. Mrs. Garner was arrested for investigation and released on bond. No formal charge has been filed. The Garners have three chil dren.

Mrs. Garner's mother, Mrs. Frank Needham, resides in Odin, 111. The Direct Approach Seems to Be the Best Los Angeles, Feb. 4 (AP) a wen aressea young man walked into a bank in the heart of the financial district, removed his coat and strolled over to a counter, where he helped himself to $10,000.

Everyone thought he was a visiting auditor. The shortage was discovered after the bank closed for the day. Vandalia Store Manager Dies in Army Hospital Vandalia, Feb. 5 (Staff) Pvt. Newton Bechtel, former assistant manager of the Morris store in Vandalia, died at 7:30 p.

m. fnday in a hospital in Fort Sam Houston, Texas, of a bone disease. Born June 12, 1910 in "Fayette county, he was graduated from the Vandalia high school in 1928 and attended Eastern Illinois Teachers college, Charleston. He entered service April 14, 1944. He leaves his parents, Mr.

and Mrs. C. E. Bechtel of Hillsboro, his wife, the former Jennie Martin of Vandalia; and two children, Michael, 8, and Suzanne. 4.

The body will be sent to the Bass funeral home in Hillsboro. Funeral arrangements are incomplete. Isabell Andrews, 97, Of Shelbyville, Dies Shelbyville, Feb. 4 (Staff) Mrs. Isabell Andrews died at 4 a.

m. Sunday in the home of her daughter. Mrs. Ida Kimmel, in Shelbyville. She was 97 years old.

Surviving in addition to Mrs. Kimmel are two other daughters. Mrs. A. Farver of Chenoa and Mrs.

Cora Runkel of Onamia. two sons. Robert Poteet of Nokomis and Ed Poteet of Assumption; two sisters, Mrs. Catherine Page of Moweaqua and Mrs. Lydia Walker of California; 28 grandchildren and a number of great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren.

The body is in the Lantz-Boett-cher funeral home where friends may call. Rev. Howard Kelley will officiate at funeral services there at 2 p. m. Tuesday.

Burial will be in Robinson Creek Shortage of new cars is aiso contributing to the delays. The roads have not been allowed all the materials they have needed for the number of cars they would like to have built in the last few years and old equipment is playing out On Dec. 9 the average daily car shortage on the roads was 2,276 and by Jan. 13 this had grown to 8,198 Manpower shortage is also a big contributor. Figures of the Eail-road Retirement board show that on Jan.

1 the roads needed 84,954 more workers. Seek Further Travel Cut Railroad travelers who still think this trip is necessary" may be in clined to change their minds, as travel conditions promise to grow worse. Unwilling to attempt such a task as rationing of travelers, the ODT has suggested to the railroads to further reduce passenger service to save coal. Some of the larger roads have already curtailed service and are continuing to make reductions. New York Central has just an nounced further cuts in Pullman service on 13 of its routes, effective at once.

The usual coach ser vice on these routes will be main tained. The fact that some of the large roads took off a lot of Pullman service a week or two ago on some of their main runs but continued to operate the same number of trains caused some folks to ask how this could effect any savings. Passenger men point out that for merly these trains were operated with double-header engines but now that the trains are lighter, one locomotive only is used on the run. Vacations Suspended On account of shortage of north end firemen, supervisory officers Monday ordered current vacations to be withdrawn until such a time as crew dispatchers could see an available supply of firemen ahead, On account of Fireman J. H.

Con-rady of the Wabash west end being set up to the extra engineer board, his turn in through freight with Engineer H. R. Vannier is bulletined for bids from firemen up to Thursday, Feb. 8.
