eats a heavy dinner, and sits down to
read and smoke away a quiet evening.
Suddenly he notices a weight on his
stomach; then sharp pains around his
heart, and a feeling of suffocation.

rates The question is up as to the
amount of rate knowledge our present
commissioners have at their command.
| have often heard our commissioners
tlisclaim that they know very much
about rates l always think they are
entirely too modest in this respect. The
only thing anyone knows about rates
is where to find them. 1t is true 1t
takes several years experience In the
business to obtain that knowledge and
to give a man confidence that he has
the right rate when he finds 1t. The
popular impression that somebody
somewhere has the deep, dark formula
on which freight rates are made is en-
tirelv without foundation. There is no
mystery about freight rates. Our rail-
road commission probably knows as
much about the making of freight rates
as anybody in the country. and | al
ways think when they dlsclafm any
Knowledge of them they are thinking

have. But let Iowa and let the United
States government take hold. man

ton problems, as if we wanted to solve
them and set them right. not as If we
did not want TO solve them, the way We
have been doing.
I'VE should be Just as hostile to a
rate that is too low as 10 one that is too
high, and we shall be when we know.
With such knowledge on transporta-
tiop Iowa will send representatives to
freight rate hearings who can add light
upon the subject. There is no use
sending them otherwise. 1, win be OBJ
served that no state has official repre-
sentatives taking a hand in the hear

In regard 10 the question of knoWl-
edge Of rates on the part Of the mem

Mr.. Wrightman declares that the COM
mission probably knows as much about
the making of freight rates as anybody
in the country. He says that the only
thing that any one knows about
freight rates is where to find them
and that it takes years of experience
for man TO know that he has the
