PLAN TO REDUCE
COST OF LIVING
Parcel Post VIII Carry Farm
Produce to Consumers.
BEGINS WITH TEN CITIES

Postmasters Receive Orders to Secure
Names of Persons Who VIII Supply
Farm Products in Retail Quantities
by Parcel Post-Lists viii Then Be
Distributed Among Town and City
Patrons.
Washington, March 23-Preliminary
steps were taken by the postoffice de-
partment to perfect it's plans for re-
ducing the cost of living by having
parcel post carry the products of the
farm directly to the door of the con-
sumer.
Ten cities were selected to begin the
work of establishing direct connec-
tions between producer and consumer.
Postmaster General Burleson already
has issued an order permitting the
use of crates and boxes for butter,
eggs, poultry and fruit shipped by par
eel post
Orders went to the postmasters at
Boston, Atlanta, ST. Louis, San Fran
cisco, Baltimore. Detroit, La Crosse,
Wis; Lynn, Mass; Washington and
Rock Island, H., directing them ito
receive the names of persons who are
willing to supply farm products in re-
tail quantities by parcel post"
Printed lists of these names show
ing kind and quantity of commodity
available will be distributed among
town and city patrons.
by the use of the lists" First AS
sistant Postmaster General Roper
said, the city consumer will be able
to get in touch with farmer who will
fill his weekly orders for butter and
eggs and other farm produce The
consumer will receive the produce
fresh from the country and the per-
sonal relationship established no
doubt will tend to improve the quail
ity.
Carrier viii Collect Produce.
'The farmer will be relieved of car
rying his produce to market, as the
tions at the farmers own door of
these retail shipments to city con-
sumers.
The point has been raised that diff
ficulties will be experienced in the re-
turn of hampers and other containers.
This problem does not appeal to me
to be difficult of solution. The farmer
may use inexpensive hampers whose
value would not warrant their return,
or he may use the higher grade ham
pers for which he may include an ad-
ditional charge to be credited to the
consumer upon the return of the ham,
per by parcel post"
The postmaster general has the
firm conviction that this plan is the
one thing necessary to enable the peo-
pie of this country to enjoy the poten-
tial benefits of the parcel post. No
one has questioned the possibility of
reducing the cost of living by estab-
fishing direct relations between the
ultimate consumer and the original
producer. A complete means for such
direct transportation was provided for
the first time by the establishment of
the domestic parcel post, but there
has been lacking an agency by means
Of which the individual producer could
get In touch with the individual con.
sumer.
The postmaster generals plan is
designed to provide this agency for
the most economical distribution of
those products which are consumed in
the form and condition in which they
are produced.

DROP HOLDINGS
Eastern Rail Corporation Decides
to Dissolve.
.AvERTS COSTLY LITIGATION

Attorney General McReynolds and
Officials OF New York, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad Company
Agree or Dissolution Plan After
Several Weeks of Negotiation.
Washington, March 23.-After sew
eral weeks of negotiations the depart
ment of justice and the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad
company announced that they had
reached complete agreement for a
dissolution of the New Haven.
The indicated arrangements, stated
in general terms, follow:
The Boston railroad holding com.
pany is Massachusetts corporation
holding majority of the stock of the
Boston and Maine railroad and 80 per
cent of the former stock in turn is
owned by the New Haven railroad.
The charter of the holding company
prohibits it from disposing of the
Boston and Maine stock. The legisla
tuTs of Massachusetts will be asked
to remove this prohibition and the
stock will be transferred at once to
Ave trustees and they shall sell the
Boston and Maine stock, prior to Jan
1, 1917.
The stocks of the companies which
control the Connecticut and Rhode
Island trolleys will be placed in the
hands of trustees. five for each state
and shall be sold within five years
from July /. 1914.
Placed in Trustees Hands.
THE majority stock of the Mer-
chants and Miners Transportation
company, now held by the New Haven
railroad, will be placed in the hands
g. three trustees and shall be sold
witI.ih three years from July /, 1914.
The majority stock in the Eastern
Steamship corporation held by the
New Haven railroad shall be sold
within three years from July 1, 1914.
Whether the New Haven railroad
shall he permitted to retain the sound
lines will be submitted to the inter.
state commerce commission for de
termination under the provisions OF
the Panama canal act
The Berkshire trelleys shall bs
sold within five years from July
1914"
I'm the judgment of the directors
the general business and financial
conditions in New England, particular
ly those affecting the transportation
lines, were such that II seems wiser a
make settlement, IL possible, ratL
than face general dissolution suit
with all of its ramifications and uncer
tainties,' Chairman Elliott said.
New England needs peace and 9
chance for constructive work.
This agreement marks the second
victory which Attorney General Nc
Reynolds has won In his efforts tc
have big business adjust itself to the
Sherman antitrust act without litiga
ton.
