URGE CUT IN FREIGHT RATES
Kansas Livestock Association Asks
President Harding for Assistance.


President Harding for Assistance.
Immediate reductions in freight
rates to pre-war levels, as a means
of averting the threatened railroad
strike, are urged in a telegram sent to
President Harding today by the Kan
sas Live Stock association.
The telegram, which is signed by
John A. Edwards, president; J. H.
Mercer, secretary, and directors of
the association follows:
I'm behalf of the farmers and live
Stock producers of the middle west
who are now suffering untold finan-
cial Losses. we appeal to you to avert,
If possible, the threatened tieup of
our railroads. Already the strike stu
alton is adding to our burdens and we
feel that you should urge the inter-
state commerce commission to order
immediate reductions in rates to pre-
war levels. We feel that general rate
reduction would settle controversy. We
are depending upon your good judg
ment to see our people thru this crisis
and trust that you will not hesitate to
use the strong arm of our government,
if necessary to maintain order"
