Navigation of the Missouri,

So far as the Missouri river itself is con-
cerned, it is as susceptible OF navigation now as
it ever was. This statement has been repeated
many times in The Bee, with the further state
ment that commerce can well be served by utiiz-
ing the waters of the mighty river. Details
are to be worked out now, according to plans
laid in Washington, and some steps taken to
make the Big Muddy serviceable to commerce.
An immense territory can be served by this
stream on which heavy and slow moving freight
may be transported in bulk at low rates. Chief
factor in the problem is that of distribution,
which requires transshipment Whether the
cost OF handling the freight from boats to cars
will increase the expense beyond the point of
profit must have great weight in determining the
use of the river. If we are to have the advantage
Of inland navigation we must deal with the prob
lem, not from the viewpoint of war necessity,
but as permanent element Of our internal COM
merce indeed, il easily can be connected with
our external commerce. No good reason exists
why considerable part of the material now ex-
ported from the great central west can not be
borne to tidewater on river boats and reloaded
directly TO ocean-going cargo carriers. 1t is a
matter OF terminals, rather than OF water and
freight The war has stimulated interest in the
inland waterways and this ought to be pursued
now to definite conclusion.

State-Owred Packing Houses.

Broken Bow, Neb., June 3.-To the
Editor of The Bee: Your readers will
remember that la. March Francis j..
Heney of alif---iia went to Omaha
with authority to investigate the stock
yards. His investigation was made
with his characteristic vigor and thor
.oughness, and his report, summarized,
is as follows Capital outstanding,
s7,496. 900; stock -ssued without cash
and given as bonuses or stock divi-
dends, s5,921,360; of the balance, be-
cause of the sale Of stock at less than
par, the actual amount Of moneJ in
vested in the yards is not more than
$75O,000."
For the years 1916 and 1917 the
stock yards company declared divi-
dend of per ce--t on its capitaiiza-
ton, which included cash and yatered
stock, which would amount to about
Ga per cent on actual investment. In
the eyes of the farmers and others
who have contributed to these -enor-
nous dividends, this is pretty much
CT paying investment, and the public
generally will agree with me that some
radical remedy should be immediately
and effectively applied.
1t has now BEN well onto three
months since Mr.. Heney made his re-
port and no one IN a position to do
so has come forward with a remedy.
Every time c. -sumer buys a pound
of meat or ships :. steer to the stock
yards he contributes to this enormous
extortion.
me government. HIS regulated the
price of some things the farmer has
to sell and the farmers have patriot
ically refrained from protest. Can
any valid reason be given why the
prices Of packing house products and
stock yards service should not be reg
ulated?
The "piti IS light" Of publicity is
now beating upon those institutions
and If some way Is no. devised soon to
regulate them and restrain their ex-
ploitation of the public state-owned
packing houses and stock yards are
inevitable. Let it come. The average

more at the bugaboo of state social
