Dear Mr.. Maloney:
There being but eight more days
during which bills may be intro
duced in the Legislature, now in

as President of the Algiers Citizens
Ferry Association, if the city has
found any new legislation necessary
to enable it to cut the present ferry
rates to that of municipality
owned-and-operated" basis, and if
so. whether the bills (if any neces-
sary to bring this about, will be pre-
scented and urged at this Legislative
session.
We want to report to the people
of Algiers. who, as you are aware,
are being subjected to tax as
onerous as it is unnecessary, in this
ferry matter. and who are therefore,
reasonably expecting early relief at
the hands of the present City Admin
istration. l may say that, notwith-
standing the work done by the Citi-
zens Ferry Committee, and the
numerous conferences held with the
of the Commission Council
both individually and collectively
we have received no definite infor-
nation on this matter up to this
time, and We therefore trust that
under the circumstances. you will not
consider this request as being I'M
timely or improper. Personally, we
am well aware of the strenuous ex-
perience you have had with other
large matters which have taxed your
time ever since your induction into
office, and we can only offer as an
apology for this intrusion, the vital
economic Importance of this subject
matter to not only every inhabitant
of the Fifth Municipal District, but
to those of the entire city of New
Orleans as well.
Very truly. yours,

Chicago, Aug. 5.-The reds of
America, believed by many to have

ed names.
Only the organizer, who has care
fully felt out his prospective ally,
knows the true name of the candi-
date. Upon passing inspection and
a vote of the other members of the
district the new recruit becomes a
full fledged member of the commun-

To MAKE FIGHT
FOR LOWER RATE
WILL STRIVE TO
GET REDUCTION ON GRAIN,
GRAIN PRODUCTS AND HAY

Huron, Aug. 5.-M. Il. Benedict.
secretary of the South Dakota State
Farm Bureau federation, will testify
at the hearings on freight rates on
grain, grain products and hay before
the interstate commerce commission
at Washington on Aug. is. He will
go at the request of the South Da-
kota oard of railroad commissioners,
and will officially represent the state
department of agriculture and the
farm bureau federation. Farmers
throughout the state are urged to
railroad freight charges have made
shipments Improbable.
Mr.. Benedict is collecting evidence
from all parts of the state which
will support the claim for lower
rates Among the items specifically
asked for are: Amount of carry
over; returns TO grower; deteriora-
tion if not disposed of at this time;
production of the various counties
grains and hay; anrount of livestock
held in county and percentage of in
crease or decrease as compared to
1920; information as to whether or
not a normal acreage of hay will be
cut or if production will be decreas-
ed on current market conditions and
higher rates; approximate number
of carloads and tons of hay shipped
from different railroad stations in
each county during a normal year,
and names of principal markets to
which hay is shipped.
In compiling figures relative to re-
turns to the growers, it is planned
to secure accounts of sale, freight
charges, ETC., from representative
shippers to various markets, with ac'
tual bills-of-lading and bills-of-sale
as evidence.
In asking for this Information
from county farm bureaus and 9th
ers, Mr.. Benedict urges that nc
other local activity could be taker
up by farmers at this time whlcf
means as much in dollars and cents
as the railroad freight question.
