The average baseball student Of a dec

manager from the great Cubs OF that
day probably would have picked one
Of the great infleld stars-Evers. Tink-

II might have been that he would
have picked Johnny Killing, one Of the
greatest OF all catohers. or Jimmie
Sheckard, one Of the brainest Of out

recognized this in the case of Cham Der Of Commerce of Houston, Texas vsf H. E. and w. T. R.R.-32-I. C.. C. 2O3-2O5.
 here is however, a much more serious matter now confronting the business interests of Pine Bluff, and that is the proposal of the U S. Rail- road Administration to establish q mileage scale" of rates from inter- state points to Arkansas.
 This proposition deserves your edi- torial attention a hundred. times more than the other, and l enclose a copy of the preliminary objections we have filed with the Railroad Administra- tion and the Interstate Commerce Commission with the hope that you will give it your attention.
 Yours truly, w. NJ. TAYLOR, 8
 Traffice Manager of the Chamber of Commerce.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1918-12-15

Our estimate is that the proposed scale will increase the revenue on inbound traffic at Pine Bluff not less than 50 percent. The present freight receipts on inbound freight are ST. 300,0O0. a 50 percent increase would be $650,O00. Of this amount 30 per cent is chargea5le to goods consumed in Pine Bluff or 5325,O0O. The in dividual inhabitants today pays $25.00 "a year in transportation charges, and this would te increased 90 percent or $125O.
 The baalnce of the increase. or ,$325 ,o0O, must be added 10 the goods sold by the wholesaler. and shipped out of Pine Bluff. Arkansas. An in- crease to him of 50 percent. as com pared with increases of 23 to 395 percent to his competitors Is congsca- tion
 His trade territory or limits of dis tribution will be materially reduced, to the advtange oDlv of competitors who have builded their business un- der the same rules used by him.
 Instead of continuing to distribute goods for distance of 100 miles, he woul be reduced to 50 miles
 The wholesale business of Pine Bluff affected amounts to at least $12OOO, 900 per. year. Our judgment is that the proposed scale as it would affect Pine Bluff and her compcti- tors would reduce this volume of business 30 percent.
 We are unable to believe that such an injustice is seriously contemplated by the Railroad Administration. 3. Is the proposed scale proper in and of itself?
