The Marketing And Transportation Situation Vol 1

Excerpt from The Marketing and Transportation Situation, Vol. 1: May 1942 Problems developing daily in the marketing and transportation of farm products point to the imperative need for conservation and increased efficiency in the use of existing facilities. Except for ocean shipping, current demands for transportation are being met, but the big season of crop harvesting, processing, and distributing is still ahead. The reduction of coastal shipping and the shortage of parts, tires, and gasoline for trucks as well as complete stoppage of new truck production throws a heavy burden on the railroads. On all transportation fronts, plans are underway to eliminate waste effort, to take better care of equipment, and to make fuller use of facilities through elimination of less-than-capacity loads and cross-hauling, consolidation of routes, the standardization of new designs, and the granting of shipping and storage permits.
