RATE Increase
NECESSARY
FARMERS UNION OFFICIALS
THINK RAILROADS ARE EN-.
TITLED TO MORE REVENUE.
Products Of Piow and Farmer Who
Lives at Home Should BE
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-
tion Of the roads to state and inter.
state commissions for an increase in
rates. and the utterances 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. II IL 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 ef-
fectlvely meet the demands Of COM
merce and particularly In the South
and West additional railway mileage
is needed to accommodate the move
ment of farln products. II in the wis
dom Of our Railroad Commissions an
increase In freight rates is necessary
to bring about IN improvement In our
transportation service, and an exten.
sion OF our mileage, then an increase
should be granted, and the farmer lie
willing to share such proportion of
the increase as justly belongs to him,
but we have some suggestions TO make
rs to the manner in which this in.
crease shall be levied.
anoe.
The freight rates Of the nation have
been built up along lines OF least re-
sistance. The merchant, the manu-.
f%acturer. 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
tied 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 skin
and cunning. are represented at every
bearing 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 case and, as a result, the products
Of the pillow bear an unequal burden
OF the freight expense A glance at
the freight tariffs abundantly proves
this assertion. Cotton, the leading
agricultural product c the South, al
ready bears the highest freight rate Of
any necessary commodity In com
merce. 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 In
rates as is necessary without levyinG
a further toll upon the products OF
the pillow. The instance Scent TO pre-
SEM an opportunity to the Railroad
Commissions to eQualize the rates as
between agricultural and other classes
OF freight without disturbing the rates
on staple farm products.

What is = Fair RatsY

We do not know what constitutes a
basis for rate making and have never
heard OF anyone who did claim to
know much about Il, but n the pros.
perity Of the farm is q factor to be
considered and the railroad commits
sion concludes that an increase in
rates is necessary, we would prefer
that il come to us through articles OF
consumption on their journey from
the factory 20 the farm, We would.
for example. prefer that the rate IN
noes remain as at present and the
rate on meat bear the increase, for
any farmer can then avoid the burden
by raising his own meat. aud a farm.
er who viii not try to raise his own
meat ought 10 be penalized. We
think the rate on coal and brick can
much better bear an increase than
the rate or cotton and -four We
would prefer that the rate on plows
remain the same, and machinery,
pianos and such articles as the poor.
or farmer cannot hope to possess bear
the burden Of Increase.
The Increase In rates should be so
arranged that the farmer who lives
At home will bear no part OF the bur.
den, but let the farmer who boards
IA ather states and countries and
who feeds his stock in foreign lands,
pay the price Of his folly.
