Ship now —and insure 
against a car shortage 
I DLE freight cars in the spring are no guarantee against a 
car shortage at crop moving time. But the use of avail¬ 
able equipment now to make shipments in anticipation of 
fall and winter needs.will insure against the costly delays 
that are the inevitable result of the periodical harvest time 
traffic congestion. 
The railroads were never better equipped. They have made 
heavy outlays for new cars, engines and facilities. Operating 
morale is at a high level. Performance records reflect high 
credit on men and managements. 
But railroad men are not supermen—and there is a limit to 
the amount of traffic that can be promptly handled in yards 
and terminals. Car shortages are the result of the slow 
movement of cars rather than the lack of cars. 
Shippers who take advantage of the present ease of trans¬ 
portation to move fuel, raw materials and finished products 
that will be needed later in the year will not only protect 
themselves against business losses due to traffic congestion, 
but will help to insure the prompt movement of the crops 
to market.
