Fixing Railroad Rates.

Making railroad rates is like playing
game Of checkers or chess. Commun-
tiles to be benefited, producers, manu-
facturers or shippers to be aided, repre-
sent the pieces used. Every possible
move ia studied for its effect on the
general result by skilled traffic man
ayers. A false move in the making of
freight rates may mean the ruin OF a
city, of great manufacturing interest,
of an agricultural community. Rail
roads strive to build up all these SO
that each may have an equal chance in
the sharp competition Of business. So
sensitive to this rivalry are the rail
roads that in order to build up business
along their lines they frequently allow
the shipper to practically dictate
rates. Rate making has been matter
of development; of mutual concessions
for mutual benefit. That Is why th'
railroads Of the United States have vol
UNFAIRLY made freight rates SO mucf
lower in this country than they are OF
the government-owned and operated
railways of Europe and Australia tina
they are now the lowest transportation
rates in the world.
