Vacation Problem Solved.
If the man in Kansas has been
longing for vacation and doesn't
know where to go perhaps he will
be confronted by a "Come to Min.
nesota" as he opens his magazine or
a hot evening.
Likely as not he'll write at once
to headquarters, at the St. Pau
Association, and by return mail goes
everything to tell of Minnesota's at.
Effectiveness and lure. In two OF
three days he receives sectional lit.
erature emphasizing individual fields
of sport and where they can be found
and lastly railroad representative
calls upon him and offers his ser.
vices.
Could a combination of forces be
stronger to sway the Kansas man
toward Minnesota? The Associ-
alton thinks not, and of course, after
he has spent one vacation here, he'll
never want to go anywhere else.
The state legislature has been
advertising Minnesota's wonderful

roads can prosper equally on the same
freight rate per ton.
"The producers of Minnesota iron
ore merely ask you to vote a protest
against this discrimination, this un-
just and monstrous imposition by the
federal railroad administration, which
is plainly taxing our locality, our ma
tural resources, and our industry to
help it maintain it's scheme of rail
reading in other parts of the country.
The boldness of this tax has no par
allel, and it injects into the nations
commerce completely new theory.
Anxiety Explained.
"Should your consideration and
our joint efforts restore the 63kc
rate, it does not follow that the mines
would receive more money for the
ore.
"Our anxiety is predicted on the
fact that competition has been re-
stored in the pig iron industry, and
that the Birmingham district and the
Atlantic coast states have large pig
iron producing capacities that use
iron ores mined at or near the furn-
aces, or they receive cheap foreign
ores by boat from Spain, Chill, New
foundland and Cuba. They compete
with the district using our ore. They
stand between our consumers and the
Atlantic seaboard, to which all pig
iron and steel must go if it to partake
in the export business so much an
ticipated and needed. Consequently,
any reduction in freight would logic
ally mercy reduce the price of ore de-
livered at furnaces, but that would
stimulate buying and consumption,
and thus help us to operate the mines.
Industry in Peculiar State.
"The iron and steel industry today
is in peculiar state. Operation is
at about so per cent, and new bust
ness is not coming in faster than %
per cent. Practically no Minnesota
ore is yet sold for shipment in 1919.
There may be a lot of business short
way ahead, and if Minnesota iron ore
is to obtain its fair share, this freight
rate must be reduced. At present a
furnace using Minnesota ore tit
takes two tons of ore to make one
ton of pig iron) is penalized about
75c per ton of pig iron, because Of
this 81 per ton freight rate on ore,
and this tax (for that is precisely
what it is) of 75c must be done away
with before the commercial prestige
of our Minnesota ores is restored in
the markets custom has developed for
them.
''The passing of this resolution by
both houses of the legislature of Min
nesota does not make it mandatory
for Director General Hines to restore
the old rate, but it will show that we
resent and protest against most
notable discrimination, and that we
demand it's discontinuance. Should
we permit it to go on unopposed, the
federal railroad administration surely
will do nothing.
