Des Moines July 1.-The state rail-

clined Director General McAdoo's re-
quest made thru Director c. A Prouty'
Of washington, to accept the zone rates
on express and file notice Of such ac-
ceptance with the interstate commerce
commission. The Iowa commission
saws it has no authority under the Iowa
statutes to do this and the present
rates on express in Iowa practlcaliE
were approved by federal statutes.
The Iowa commission in telegram
to Director Prouty declares that If the
director general as war measure unoef
any powers which may have been
constitutionally granted initiates rates
in Iowa contrary TO our present scheo-
uIe we will, as a commission, at TINS
time take no action to prevent such
rates becoming effective"
The request to file rates in conformity
with those prescribed by the interstate
commerce commission was forwarded TO
the state railroad commission by d.
rector Prouty a few days ago. 1t was
as follows:

this board could fix a zone rate. For
reasons stated we regret we are unable
to comply with the request Of the d.
rector general. Our powers arc derived
only from our statutes. We may only
fix reasonable rates after hearing. we
have no authority TO make exception or
arbitrarily fix rates to produce unusual
revenues. Our present express rates
have virtually been adtu Heated by the

been introduced leading us 10 believe
that the application Of zone 3 rates,

pointed to find that their family physi-
clan is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like

and diarrhoea require prompt treat
ment, and have in many instances
proven fatal before medicine could be
procured or physician summoned.
The right way is to keep at hand

scribe better medicine for these dis
