Railroads Heavily Taxed
Hauling Soldiers to Camps
The local war board gives out the-j
statement that today and up to and
including October 7 the railroads of
the country will move 172,000 sol
diers of the national army. Up to
date and not including the 172,000 the
roads have handled 720,000 men to
the training camps and points of
embarkation for oversea service.
The longest haul made in moving
the national armv was from Yuma,
Ariz., to Camp Funston, 1,514 miles.
The shortest was from District of Co
lumbia to Camp Meade in Maryland,
a distance of twenty-five miles. The
longest haul for the National Guard
was from San Francisco to some point
on the Atlantic coast.
Members of the war board assert
that the transportation of the sol
diers and their impedementa from
their home stations to the canton
ments and training camps has been
accomplished without interfering se
riously with the abnormal amount of
commercial traffic that the war has
produced.
