Pasquale revealed the complete de-

Adams.

Minneapolis, Oct. 11.-That farm
ers are forming organizations thruout
the country to force legislation to en-
able them to combine to hold their
crops until the price offered had
reached the figure they wanted. was
charged here today by P. E. Goodrich,
president of the Grain Dealers associ-
alton, speaking before the Interna-
tional grain conference
The next movement in this country
will be an agrarian movement, said
Goodrich. He declared farmers were
being misled by ambitious politicians
in forming organizations aimed at Sc
curing legislation which would sur
pass advantages obtained by labor.
The farmers. nearer 100 per cent
American than any other class. have
been all but convinced that they are
abused by the entire country, that the
fruits of their labor are taken without
anything like a fair return said
Goodrich. Thru the great organiza-
ton which they are building up they
seek to eliminate competition thru
class legislation. Here the danger
lies. They want the legal right for col
lective marketing"

DISCRIMINATION IS CHARGED

DISCRIMINATION IS CHARGED

Discrimination against interstate
shippers and passengers will be
charged by Kansas railroads in an ap-
peal of the Kansas rate case to
the interstate commerce commission.
Judge w. r. Smith. general solicitor
for the Santa Fe system, today stated
that the roads would mediately ask
the federal commission for a review of
the Kansas rate order
In denying to the roads the rates
approved by the commerce commits
sion, the Kansas court of industrial
relations held that the interstate rate
produced more revenue than was
necessary to earn the per cent re-
turn asked by the roads. The railroads
Will ask the new rate order be can
celled by the commerce commission
because it diScriminateS against q pas
senger or shipper from another state
who enters or passes thru Kansas. In
other words the interstate passenger
Or shipper is required to pay a higher
rate than the Kansan who rides or
ships over the same road within the
state.
All Rosrtis Expected to Join.
All of the roads are expected to join
In the application for review of the
Kansas order. Immediate steps will
be taken to present the application for
modification of the Industrial court
order. In the meantime, however. 1t
is probable that the roads will place
in effect such rate increases as were
granted. Judge Smith declined to
speak for all of the Kansas roads, but
the position of the Santa Fe is gen.
orally accepted as the attitude of other
carriers.

Causes Much Speculation.
There is much speculation IN the
state house today regarding phases of
the industrial court rate order. State
officials point out that the order was
! written by Judge Reed a1tho the case
! Is in charge of cases affecting COM
mon carriers 1t is also mentioned
that Judge Huggins did not sign the
order until he was starting for Wash
| ington and then protested that in his
opinion the court was not in posses
sion of sufficient evidence to warrant
an order.
Various state officials today spec
ulated as to whether the railroad rate
order reflected in any manner the in
ternal disturbances which have af-
| fected the court for several months.
Whether Judge Reed usurped some of
| the authority of Judge Higgins in
preparing the opinion or whether
Judge Huggins yielded under state
administration pressure, has occasion
| ed much corridor comment
Others Did Not Join?
There is also a feeling that Judge
! Reed did not expect either Judges
! Huggins or Wark to join in his de-
cision and that the opinion was to be
used as a& dissent. Action of Judge
Higgins and Wark in entering into
/ the aecree with Judge Reed destroyed
