RATE INCREASE
NECESSARY.
FARMERS UNION OFFICIALS
THINK RAILROADS ARE EN-
TITLED TO MORE REVENUE
Products Of PIow and Farmer Who
Lives at Home should Sc
Exempt From Increase.
BY Peter Radford.

Lecturer National Farmers Union.
The recent action OF the Interstate
Commerce Commission In granting an
increase in freight rates In the eastern
classification of territory; the applica
ton of the roads to state and inter
state commissions for an increase in
rates, and the u~tteranees Of President
Wilson on the subject bring the farm
ers of this nation face to face with the
problem of an increase in freight
rates. 1t is the policy of the Farmers
Union to meet the issues affecting the
welfare of the farmers squarely and
we will do so in this instance.
The transportation facilities of the
United States are inadequate to eff
fectively meet the demands Of com
merce and particularly in the South
and West additional railway mileage
Is needed to accommodate the nov
ment Of farm products. II in the wis
dom of our Railroad Commissions an
increase in freight rates Is necessary
to bring about an improvement in oui
transportation service, and an extern
sion of our mileage, then an increase
should be granted, and the farmer is
willing to share such proportion OF
the increase as justly belongs to him
but we have some suggestions to make
as to the manner in which this in
creas shall Be levied.
Rates Follow Lines of Least Resist.
ance.
The freight rates of the nation have
been built up along lines of least re.
sistance. The merchant, the manu-
facturer, the miner, the miller, the
lumberman and the cattleman have
had their traffic bureaus thoroughly
organized and in many instances they
have pursued the railroad without
mercy and with the power of organ
lied tonnage they have hammered the
life out of the rates and with unre.
strained greed they have eaten the
vitals out of our transportation system
and since we have had railroad com,
missions, these interests, with skill
and cunning, are represented at every
hearing in which their business is
involved.
The farmer is seldom represented
at rate hearings, as his organizations
have never had the finances to en-
ploy counsel to develop his side OF
the last and, as a result, the products
of the pillow bear an unequal burden
of the freight expense. A glance al
the freight tariffs ~abundantly proves
this assertion. Cotton, the leading
agricultural product of the South, al
ready bears the highest freight rate OF
any necessary commodity in com
MERGE, and the rate on agricultural
products as a whole is out of pro
portion with that of the products OF
the factory and the mine.
We offer no schedule Of rates, but
hope the commission will be able to
give the railroad such an increase il
rates as is necessary without levying
a further toll upon the products OF
the pillow. The instance seems to pre-.
sent an opportunity to the Railroad
Commissions to ~equalize the rates az
between agricultural and other classes
Of freight without disturbing the rates
on staple farm products.

Chatham, Mass, March 8.-Uncen-

now virtually completed on Cape Cod
and the coast Of Norway will provide
the first direct wireless communication

Although the Marconi Wireless Tele-

One Of the early acts Of war By the
British was the cutting of direct cable
communication between Germany and

they're Holsters and a. all the other
sins which bcsct the life Of youth.
And then ne asked:

would be willing - come forward and
shake my hand as a sign and pledge
that they mean to live better Christian
lives?"
II was unexpected. The thousand
students who jammed the chapel had
