GERMANS WANT
CHEAPER RATES
Transportation Is Subject
of Interesting Discussion
in the Prussian Diet

BERLIN. March 6-In the course of
a discussion in the Prussian Diet,
which followed the introduction of a
resolution asking for a reduction in
railroad tariffs, the comparative cheap
ness of transports in Germany and the
United States was debated by Herr
Macco and Minister of Finance Won
Rheinbaben.
Herr Macco is a Rhenish manufac-
turer who, in 1893, visited the United
States to study matters pertaining to
transportation and industry He said
that the United States was ahead of
Germany in many ways and, no matter
what might be thought of American
tariffs, it was a fact that transporta-
tion in the United States was cheaper
than in Prussia.
Give us cheap transportation. Mr..
Finance Minister" said Herr Macco,
and We will guarantee cheap pro-
duction.'
In reply, Herr Won Rheinbaben al
luded TO a remark made by Herr Macco,
and said he also was desirous of main
tanning good relations with that rising
country" He saw one great drawback
In American economic life. he continued
namely, the operations of labor
unions, which, he said, exercised a
terrorism of the most dangerous char
acter. Their power must be checked
betimes.
A comparison Of railroad tariffs was
hardly possible, insomuch as many
American railroads own their own coal
mines and other industrial enterprises.
Where American railroads are without
competition, their tariffs are much
higher than in Prussia; and, moreover,
rates in the United States show a ten
dency to rise steadily. 1t must be taken
into consideration, the Minister Of FL
nance continued that the United States
has much greater distance to cover and
larger quantities of freight to transport
than has Prussia. American railroads
cost $50 900 a mile to build, while. owing
to the greater cost of land in Prussia,
a mile of road costs sos. 900.
How were the present cheap tariffs
in the United States reached? asked the
Finance Minister. Through tariff wars,
he answered. the recklessness of which
Prussia has no conception Of It is bet
ter to have steady tariffs than to be
exposed to the whims of railroad man
ayers FYfty-four per cent of the Ameri-
can railroads do not pay penny in
dividends, and the average dividend of
all the roads is less than per cent.
Herr Won Rheinbaben admitted that
American tariffs We're cheaper. but he
pointed out that the passenger rates
in the United States were double those
in Prussie.
Nevertheless, he said, 'if I could
choose. I would take the American
principle of cheap freights and more
expensive passenger rates"
In conclusion. the Minister Of Finance
asked Herr Macco TO put through a
law raising passenger rates, saying:
"Tf you will do this, | will devote the
surplus derived therefrom to the re-
duction or freight tariffs"
