difficulties will arise. The subject Of
perishable transportation has received
and is receiving earnest attention by
the Railroad and Food Administra-
tions.
Taken as whole, conditions have
recently shown improvement, and it
is hoped that a still greater improve

The letter from the Railroad Ad-

Director General of Railroads,
Washington.
My Dear Senator: Acknowledg,
ing and responding to your letter OF
April 10, addresse to the director
general, with which was enclosed
an inquiry received by you from the
Honorable Donald Balm, Iona, Fla, as
to the prospect for the transporta
tion of peppers, eggplant and toma
toes from the Florida territory next
winter:
This administration does not at thu
present time contemplate any restric
tions on the movement of the pro
ducts referred to by Mr. Balm, ant
unless some extreme war exigencie'
arises which it is not now possible
to foresee, it is anticipated that th'
service for this perishable traffi
from Florida will adequately NEE
the requirements, particularly Il
view of the special consideration tha
has been accorded this situation
which has previously been reporte'
to you.
The letter from Mr.. Balm receive
with yours is returned herewith an
beg to advise you that there is n
reason from a transportation stant
point to discourage the production 9
foodstuffs in the Florida territory
although the Food Administratio
may have some ideas as to the pa
ticular varieties of vegetables tha
should be produced.
Yours very truly,

producers in Florida all growers OF
perishable products are assured by
the Federal Food Administration and
by the office of the director general

possible assistance given to the grow

ceived by Senator Duncan U, Fletcher
are typical of those received by the
other members. The letter from the

TO the Florida growers as follows;
"Misapprehension has arisen in sew

In announcing that the rate iE-

est, Director General McAdoo referred
to the $3OO,OOO,OOO or more added to
the payrolls of railroad labor under

idly rising cost of coal. which he es-
timated this year alone at $160,OOO,-
900 more than last year, and to high
er cost of every other material enter
ing into railroad transportation Op-
Grating expenses, he estimated, would
be between $3.50. 100000 and $3.50, ,O0O,
900 greater this year than the $2,S52,

Mr.. McAdoo called attention to the

of Director General McAdoo's order
raising freight rates on basis Of 25
per cent and passenger fares to 3
cents mile and abolishing all lower
intra-state freight and passenger
rates, indicated that the average in
crease will be higher than 25 per
cent.
Rates Into Effect Soon
Many changes and readjustments
will be made by the railroad admins
tration, either on it's own initiative,
after receiving suggestions from ship
pers and State or local authorities, or
by order of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, which has power to re-
view and modify the schedules. This
will not prevent the new rates from
going into effect, however, passenger
fares on June 10 and freight tariffs
on June 25 for the commission to-
day gave its approval to the rate or
der without hearings This action
was perfunctory and is not intended
to cut off later complaints and hear
ings on them.
State Boards Can Protest
State railroad or rate commissions
have no authority to change the rates
the railroad administration holds, ev
en- though many provisions of the new
order more than double the charges
for short hauls within states. Th'
director general today explained in {
telegram to chairmen of state com
missions, however, that he will wei
tcome suggestions for re-adjustmen
OF rates on intra-state traffic am
these will be referred to the interstate
commerce commission for its consid

plants. State commissions may ais
enter formal protests direct to tn

These complaints are expected to re
suit in hundreds of notifications af
fecting specific commodities or class
es, and rates between certain com
modities, but probably will not reduc
to any great extent the total revenu
to be derived from the sweeping in
creases, which is estimated at fror
$500, 100000 to $9OO0OO,OO0.

VIII Redeem Old Tickets
The basis for computing charges for
excess baggage is to be one-sixth Of
the normal passenger fare with a
minimum of fifteen cents per hundred
pounds and minimum collection of Is
cents per shipment.
The director-general provided fully
for the redemption of tickets and
mileage books purchased before June
10, and rendered invalid after that
date, when the higher fares become
effective. Unused portions of mileage
books and unusued, or partially used,
tickets will be redeemed at their orig
inal purchase rate.
| The 25 per cent increase in freight
charges will apply generally to class
and commodity rates, but minor vari-
.ations will be necessary in many cas-
es For instance, where relationships
exist between rival commercial CEN
ters, the 25 per cent increase will APP
ply to the longer distance, and the
rate to the nearer locality will be the
same number of cents less as under
present schedule. In this way all will
have square deal.
