save a large part of the amount that

CAUSE OF HIGH
COST Of LIVING
TARIFF AND RAILROADS NOT RE-
SPONSIBLE-TOO MUCH WASTE
IN DISTRIBUTION OF FARM
PRODUCTS.

Referring to the much discussed
question of the high cost of living
and its cause, a writer in the Boston
Financial News analyses the subject
as follows:
1.-THE constant agitation of the high
cost of living probably is gradually
developing some practical sugges-
lions which will do more to bring re-
lief than all the promises made by
politicians for generations to come.
1t is probably true that the average
man will be surprised to learn that
many close students of the conditions
believe that the Importance of the
tariff as related to the high cost of
living has been exaggerated and a
rude awakening is awaiting many If
We secure a proper revision of the
tariff for the benefits of such a re-
pected. 1t is likewise probable that
manufacturers will find they have
been exaggerating the needs of high
ly protective duties and that their
business will run on much the same
under a lower tariff.
Mr.. B. F. Yoakum has been de-
veloping his idea that the main rea-
son for the high cost of living is the
high cost of distribution.
Last year the products of the
farms of the United States e
worth more than $4,000, 900 900.
This government figure is based
upon values at the farm. 1t is safe
to assume that less than one-third of
this product stayed on the farm and
was consumed there.
1.-THE farmers, therefore. marketed
products for which they received Sc
600, 600, 600" writes Mr.. Yoakum in
the Worlds Work. when these pro-
ducts finally went into consumption
the public paid for them more than
$4,000, 900. 1t cost 1000, 000,-
900 to distribute $4,000, 900 900
WOl Vi DiOuu1io ilOhi thC aim "
the consumer
IF you ask the average citizen
who got the bulk of hat money he
will answer without hesitation that it
went to the railroads. If you con-
front him with the fact, easily prov.
ed by government figures. that never
in the history of the American rail-
roads have freight earnings from
every kind of freight, agricultural,
manufactures, merchandise, food,
clothing and all other items, reached
the total of $4,000, O0O, 900 let alone
$1,000, 900, 900, he will evade the
issue. but never will he admit that he
might be mistaken.
