Cash SYSTEM IS BEST
Clarence 5ueFolz Delivers Grafton on
Practical Subject at High
School.

An insight into the present system
of credit was given this morning at
the high school when Clarence Buc-
holz gave an grafton on Book Credit.
He showed the advantages and disad-
vantages Of that form of business. In
his opinion, the system of book credit
is passing and business on the cash
basis is taking its place.

Bucholz said that the south is in a

must permit a fair amount of profit
for the railroad.
mo one can contend 1t to be nee
essary for the protection Of the pub
lie" said the railroads counsel, that
any rate be fixed by legislative au-
thority below the cost of furnishing
the service. Such a contention would
be contrary to the fundamental pur-
poses of the police power And view
ing the situation from the standpoint
of the public, it can have no interest
which ought to compel a carrier to
furnish certain classes of service at
less than cost, thus 10 charge the loss
against the balance of the service.
Such a principle is contrary to public
policy.
ANY discrimination by a public SER
vice company, which consists in rem
dering a service below its cost, is un-
just discrimination and unlawful. 1t
is inconceivable that a test of rea-
sonable rates will be adopted by the
court which would compel carriers to
do the very thing forbidden by law.
Any just rule therefore, Of rate regu-
lation must preserve to the carrier,
both the right and the ability to rem
der all service at remunerative rates"
Where Burden Must Fall.
If the regulation compels a carrier
to render a portion of it's service at
less than cost" said the counsel in
closing. inevitably this loss must be
distributed over the balance of it's bus
mess unless the carrier can refuse to
render the service. The latter alter
native is impossible. All service rem
dered at a loss results in burdening
the balance of the carriers service;
and considering that railways are sub
| ject to regulation of many states. as
well as TO that of congress, the nee
essary result of one state requiring
| service TO be rendered at less than
cost is to impose the 10. on citizens
Of other states and on the business OF
