for transportation.

Topeka. - The executive committee
of the Kansas Editorial association at
its meeting here Tuesday adopted a
resolution asking the Kansas con
gressmen to father an amendment to
the new railroad regulation law which
will permit newspapers TO trade ad-
vertising space for railroad transpor-
tatiOn. The interstate commerce com
mission in its Interpretation Of the
law has decreed that no newspaper
transportation should be issued by
the railroads.
The committee VIII 60 all in Its
power to have a similar provision
made in the Kansas anti-pass law
which they consider is sure TO be
passed by the next legislature. The
editorial association wants TO have a
section Of the bill provide that the
railroads can trade Transportation for
advertising space.
A special committee was appointed
10 look after this matter II the lssS-
lature. and the committee was In
structed 10 use every legal and moral
means to secure the provision.
The committee is composed of W.
Y. Morgan. Senator II. C. Tucker. Her
bert Heath, Del Keiser and John Nc
Donald.
The executive committee decided to
hold the next annual session OF the
association in Topeks January q and
%.
There is considerable talk now Of
Congress raising rates on second
class mail matter. the class under
which all newspapers are mailed by
the publishers. The executive com
mlttee Of the editorial association
adopted a resolution asking that the
Kansas delegation in Congress use It's
influences and votes TO prevent theat-
ened advance in second class man
rates.
