SUPREME COURT
REVIEWS RIGHT.
TO RAISE RATES
Finish Railroad Case and
: Expect to End Wire Rate
Cases Today.

Washington, May 5.-Authorlty OF
the director general of railroads and
the postmaster general to increase
intra- state railroad, telegraph and
telephone rates, throughout the coun-
try was argued today in the supreme
court in connection with appeals
from proceedings originating in a
number of states. Hearing on the rail-
road case was finished today but ar
guments in the wire rate cases will
not be concluded until tomorrow.
The appeal in the railroad case
came from North Dakota while the
telephone and telegraph rate case
arose from proceedings in South Da-
kota, Kansas, Massachusetts,, and
Illinois. Briefs as ANXIOUS curiae were
filed in the two cases on behalf of
the national association of railroad
and public utility commissioners,
representing about 35 states and
separately by the state of Pennsylvan-
ia, Ohio, and Wisconsin. the city of
Detroit, and the Protective Telephone
association of Baltimore.
Attract Wide Attention.
The proceedings attracted wide at
tention and attorneys general from
many states were in the court room.
Arguments for the railroad admins
tration were made in the railroad case
by John Barton Payne and Charles
Donnelly, while Frank E. Packard,
of Bismarck, N. D.. and w. v. Tan
ner, of Olympia. Washington, former
attorney general of Washington. ap-
peared for the North Dakota authoriA
ties. In the telephone cases, argu-
ments were opened by Solicitor Gen.
eral King, who was followed by w. H.
Hitchcock, of Boston, assistant at
torney general of Massachusetts.
Arguments in both cases conferred
principally upon the contention OF
the states that the governments act
ion in fixing intra- state rates was an
interference with the state police
powers. Solicitor General King, and
Mr.. Payne. denied this contention, but
asserted that section ten of the rail
road control act as well as the joint
resolution by government took over
subscription of the wires clearly gave
the president this authority.
BurlesOn Government Agent.
The solicitor general argued that
in increasing telephone and tele-
graph rates, the postmaster general
was acting on behalf of the public as
the corporations which own the wires
through government control had ceas-
ed to operate them. and acted solely
as the governments agents. He ac-
cused the states of bringing the pro-
ceedings with attempting to interfere
with government operation of these
facilities and asked for the dismissal
of the cases on the ground that they
were suits brought against the gov
eminent without it's consent.
Mr.. Hitchcock argued that the
police powers provided for in the
wire resolution applied to the states
in broad sense as congress in
, tended to include the right of the
states to regulate intra-state rates.
He accused the postmaster general Of
exceeding his powers in interfering
with telephone rates and with unlaw-
fully invading state powers. The
Massachusetts attorney denied that
the states were attempting to inter-
fere with the governments operation
of the telephone systems.

FARMING INTERESTS

BY proclamation issued recently,
President Wilson put entire control
of the wheat situation in the hands
of julius H. Barnes, Wheat Director
making it possible for him, by Ii
cense system, to regulate the export
and import of wheat and wheat -four
the domestic and foreign distribution
the milling processes and the baking
of bread and other products.
With the authority vested in him,
Mr.. Barnes will be able to regulate
importations from Australia and
South American countries, which
have large supplies of wheat selling
below the Government guaranteed
price, and from Canada, despite the
reciprocity agreement.
1t will also, to large extent, give
Mr.. Barnes authority to decide
whether there shall be any change of
policy that will operate for the re-
duction of. bread prices, with the
Government paying the losses result
ing from maintaining the guaranteed
price to the producers.

month. Winter wheat and rye, now
being harvested, showed the largest
production ever attained. Record
crops of sweet potatoes, tobacco and
rice also were predicted, and the pro
duction of spring wheat, corn, oats,
barley, white potatoes and hay is ex-
pected to be larger than the average
for the five years 1913 to 1917.
The value of the wheat, corn, and
oats crop combined amounts to $8,-
$40 ,622, 900 based on farm prices for
July 1st. The value of corn is 81
768, 100000 wheat, $2,577, 425, 900, and
oats 1894, 900.
The prospective output of wheat is
placed at 1,161, 100000 bushels. Win
ter wheat showed loss of $4,000, 900
bushels, and spring wheat Fl 100000
bushels. The winter wheat crop,
nevertheless, will be the largest ever
grown.
Corn production was forecast at
2,815,000,000 bushels, 132,000,O00
larger than last years crop.
White potatoes production will be
smaller than last year, but the sweet
potato crop promises to be a record
one. Respectfully

BUILDING WILL
BRING PROSPERITY
SAYS TRADE PAPER

Columbus. Ga. Feb. 10.-The Indus
trial Index says in it's issue for this
week:
Activity in the building industry
can bring increased prosperity more
quickly at this time than can any
other great department of business,
For about two years construction
of all kinds was suspended almost in
this country Building operations are
two years behind. In nearly every city
new buildings and additions are need
ed and badly needed. Cities and coun-
ties have postponed the making of
public improvements, and in many
cases these are necessary now.
CONSTRUCTION operations have been
resumed with a quickness that was
hardly to have been expected at this
season OF the year. and the prospects
are for a spring and summer Of the
greatest building activity ever known
in this part of the country. The only
thing that may detract from il is the
feeling on the part of some intending
builders that by waiting they can Sc
cure labor and building materials at
less cost. Very probably this is true
If they wait long enough. The Ques-
tion is as to how long they must wait.
And while they are losing the profits
that would accrue from building oper-
atoms It should not be overlooked
that while the cost OF building is great
er than under normal conditions eX-
actly the same thing is true as tn
rents.
1T is agreed generally that there
will be no immediate reduction in the
cost of building materials. The prices
must stay up as long as the prices of
other commodities are higher.
Considering the matter from
every standpoint. the conclusion must
be that now is the time to build.

purchased an extensive tract near
