STATE LODGES COMP LIANT ON
 RAILWAY RATE

Formal complaint has been lodged sion by the Arizona corporation com mission against the proposed increases in freight rates on all railroads throughout the country, which it is an nounced will amount to 15 per cent or more. The additional burdens laid upon them by the provisions of the Adamson act and the rapidly increasing cost of materials and supplies is given as the cause for the proposed increases.
 It is the contention of the Arizona commission. in filing complaint, that reports on file with the Interstate Com merce commission will show that the net revenues of carriers during the past three years are greater than they have been for any other period in the nations history. It is estimated on re- liable authority, that the increased cost of labor. material and supplies can be more than offset by five per cent ad- vance in freight rates.
 The Arizona commission further con- tends that the financial condition of many of the leading railroads of the country is such that they do not need any assistance in the way of rate in- CreaSeS. II SnOulu De borne III Hlillu that the increase in tonnage which will result from our entrance into the war will more than offset the increased cost of operation" said the complaint in part.
 1t was stated in the complaint that the ntermountain territory has for 30 years or more been victimiZed through the agency of an eXhorbitant, unduly prejudicial and unjustly discriminatory rate adjustment. Even at the present time" said the complaint "it is striv- ing with all it's might to shake off the letters which have retarded its progress and built up the thriving cities on the Pacific coast. Rates to and from points in that territory cannot and must not be advanced"
 Several other states have filed simi lar complaints with the Interstate Com merce commission and it is believed that the proposed increases in rates will meet the greatest concerted oppo- sition ever encountered in any action ever. instituted before the interstate commission.

CROP REPORT
 ENC0URAG|NC

The following is a summary of weather and crop conditions in Ari- zona for the week ending Tuesday April 24, as prepared by Robert Q. Grant, meteorologist.
 The heavy rains and snows over the northern and central portions of the state the early part of last week being followed by warm weather indicate de- cided improvement of the cattle ranges and will be favorable for agriculture generally. In Yavapai county there was some loss of sheep in the snow storm. In the southeastern counties the rainfall was rather light and. al though range conditions show some improvement over week ago owing to favorable temperatures, more moist ure is needed
 On the irrigation projects of the southwest the first cutting of alfalfa has been progressing and truck ship ments continue. Cotton and corn are growing satisfactorily and winter grain crops are looking well.
