CLAIM KENDR|CK
HAS AN ADVANTAGE
RATE ON BEANS FROM KEN
DRICK BETTER THAN THAT
FROM POMEROY, WASH.

POMEROY, Wash.-Because of the
extremely high rate on beans shipped
from Pomeroy as compared to the
rate in other towns, James Thompson,
a bean buyer of Spokane, is unable
to take over nine cars of beans pro-
duced in Garfield county and now
ready for shipment at the warehouses
in Pomeroy.
Mr.. Thompson says Kendrick and
other points have what is called a
cleaning and transport rate" which
is AZ IL less than the rate now exist
ing on the Pomeroy route.
"This," said Mr.. Thompson, "of
course makes the purchase of beans
at a fair market price here prohibi-
tive at this time. Pomeroy men are
now cooperating with our house at
Spokane to get the reduced rate put
in effect here as soon as possible.
When this is accomplished your beans
here will come into the market at
the regular price"
This matter will have to be taken
up with the interstate commerce COM
mission.
Mr.. Thompson said he found the
beans here of very good quality. He
is paying 7 cents for beans f. 0. b.
