Editor The Tribune:
Dear Sir: Enclosed find my check
for $3.50 for another year of the
Tribune. l wish I could do more to
help in the effort you are making for
the uplift of the race. We all need
to learn the force there is in union
in united action. This is what broth
erhood means-to stand by one an
other-to always speak good word,
and not bad word for one another
and to present solid and unbroken
front to our adversaries.
If ever there is anything 1 can do
to be of assistance to you or to your
people, l will do it if you let me
know.
Yours truly,

sEill for Lower Freight Rates.

Washington, March E.-Senator
Frelinghuysen, of New Jersey, today
introduced bill requiring the rail
roads to reduce their freight rates on
coal during, the summer months, fif-
teen per cent. in order to stimulate buy
ing during that period. --....
The bill would allow the roads to in
:rease their rates on coal 10 per cent
tbove normal traffic during the winter
in compensation for the reduction dur
inE the summer.
1t was stated by the New Jersey
senator that the reduced rate would
result in dealers buying more heavily
Turing the summer and would enable
them to offer coal at lower prices dur.
ing the summer. The net result would
be that many consumers would Law in
their winter supply and the dealers
would have bigger stocks on hand, thus
.elieving to considerable extent The
ongestion in the winter.
