But to ship by rail bail of cotton

about three times as much.
Spinach, cabbage and onions rot

are wasting in Kansas; fruits are

going to waste in all parts of the
country because these products can
not be shipped over American rail

"Mr. President, nothing is going
to be gained by maintaining rail rates
at a point which makes the railways
too expensive for the people to use.
"The way out is to encourage the
people to use the railroads by max
ing it possible for them to ship goods
and travel; to give business chance
to create more business. There is no
profit in rusting rails for anybody"
