INLAND CITIES
WANT SQUARE DEAL
Protest Against Rates on
Theoretical Competition.

WICHITA, Kan, Nov. 16.-(SpeciaD
Delegates from leading commercial
bodies, traffic bureaus and civic or
CARNATIONS in nearly all the states
and territories west of the Missouri
are taking part in the inland conven-
ton in Wichita today.
The object of the gathering is for
the purpose of working against ap-
preparations for so-called navigable
streams which are incapable of de-
velopment as practical waterways.
1t is alleged that many of these ap-
preparations are asked for by com
mittees which have no actual natural
opportunities for waterway trans
portation, but which hope to make q
purely artificial showing for the pur-
pose of securing railway freight adj
vantages over inland cities, based on
alleged water competition.

In Theory Only

Plans for ending this abuse are be-
ing discussed by the delegates at
today's convention. Resolutions will
be passed asking that congress avoid
appropriations for waterways when
actual transportation of freight on
such waterways is not practicable. 1t
is contended that in a great many
cases railroad rates are based on wa
ter competition that is purely theor-
teal
AS a case in point, it is alleged that
not for many years has a car of -four
been shipped by water from Minnea-
polls to Galveston, yet this imaginary
water competition gives the gulf
city lower rate on flour from Min
neapolis, hauled entirely by rail, than
is given Dallas, Fort Worth and other
inland cities of Texas, despite the
fact that the flour passes through
these cities EN- route to Galveston.
