LUMBER RATES
MUST STAND
INCREASE
HEAD or GREAT NORTHERN
HANDS OUT ULTIMATUM
Declares Puget Sound Dealers
Must Pay More for Freight
or Continue to Suffer From
Car Shortage,

Seattle, July 21.-President Louis
w. Hill. of the Great Northern railway
today declared the luhnbermen of the
coast must choose between a continua-
tion of the car shortage and the adj
vance of 10 cents per hundred pounds
on lumber and shingle shipments that
will be applied October 1. President
Hill said his road sent 1000 empty
cars to the coast to haul lumber prod
ucts this summer, hauling the empties
from the Dakotas and Montana.
"The westboupd traffic." he said,
will not supply cars enough for the
lumber business. We cannot haul
empties at a loss, and If we must sup
ply enough cars for the lumber traffic
we must be paid for It, / understand
the lumbermen propose to fight
against the Increase in rates before the
interstate commerce commission
do not believe they can win and
think the mill men are short-sighted.
We must either advance the lum mber
rates or allow the car shortage to con-
tinue As a matter of fact, If we sup
piled all the cars the lumbermen say
they want, the market would be de-
pressed by the heavy shipments. Right
now, when we have plenty Of cars out
here, the lumber market has slumpe6
and many mills are closed"

that I stopped in Bakersfield, Cal. for
little while to visit some relatives.

All the trouble arose from the ef-

about the old fortress by setting out
