nomic lines, to improve agricultural
marketing and to make rural life
more attractive and healthful; the
need for law regulating cold stor-
age in such way as to limit the
time during which goods. may ibe
kept in storage, prescribing the
method of disposing of them, if kept
beyond the permitted period, and re-
curing goods released from storage
in all cases to bear the date of their
receipt. It would also be most SER
viceable if it were provided that all
goods released from cold storage for
interstate shipment should have
plainly marked upon each package
the selling or market price at which
they went into storage, in order that
the purchaser might be able to learn
what profits stood between him and
the producer or the wholesale dealer.
Indeed, it would be very serviceable
to the public if all goods destined for
interstate commerce were made to
carry upon every packing case whose
form made it possible a plain state
ment Of the price at which they left
the hands of the producer. re-
spectfully call your attention, also, to
the Recommendation of the message
referred to with regard to federal
license for all corporations engaged
in interstate commerce.
In brief, the immediate legislative
need of the time is the removal of
all obstacles to the realization Of the
best ambitions of our people in their
several classes of employment and
the strengthening Of all instrument
talities by which difficulties are to be
met and removed and justice dealt
out, whether by law CT by some form
of mediasion and conciliation. l do
not feel it to be my privilege at pres
ent to suggest the detailed and par
ticular methods by which these OBJ
iects may be attained, but I have
faith that the inquiries Of your sew
eral committees will discover the way
and the method.
