Backs Fight to Lower
Rail Freight Rates

Denver, Aug. 30.-Oliver H.
Shoup, governor of Colorado, di-
rceted letters to the governors OF l6
western states asking them to join
with Colorado in efforts to bring
abou a reduction Of railroad rates.
In his letter the governor states
the reasons in the following
language.
Transportation charges are SO vital
factor in the commerce of the
country that it does not seem possi-
BILE for q full resumption OF normal
business to occur unless every inn
portant industry is enabled to dis
tribute and market upon transporta-
ton charges which the traffic can
pay and still show profit. Our
position is that reduced rates will
produce increased traffic and should
consequently. produce increased reve-
nues.
