REDUCTION IN EXPORT RATES

GENERAL REDUCTIONS.
Western sexspspef union Nsss seu!cs.D

Washington.-Strong hope for bet
ter prices In the agricultural markets
Is justified by reductions In the rail
road rates on grain for export, already
In effect md proposed, according to
Il statement Issued ut the White
House.
Recent reductions In the export
rate on grains between Chicago and
New York, the statement said, will be
followed by sweeping revlslons Of
grain rates generally, including those
from Mississippi river points, and on
the lines to the gulf. in order that the
entire agricultural interest may share
fully in the benefits.
an general" the statement contln-
ued. advances in freight costs are
passed on to the consumer by adding
them to the selling price. But in
grains, whose domestic price Is dOmi-
mated by the foreign price Of the ex-
ported surplus, the producer suffers
when rates 90 up and benefits when
they 20 down.
Therefore, though the exports rep
resent n minor share or the total grain
production, the lowering of export
rates affects the entire crop. These
reductions of rates, together with the
a to nj LOTT
to export trade and the assurance
that Europe Is going to need extraor-
dinary quantities Of American food
stuffs, constitute altogether justifi-
cation for strong hope that the tend
ency In the agricultural markets will
for some time be decidedly toward
better prices"
Reductions Of transportation rates
on grain for export was described as
zone Of the most important measures
the administration has initiated for
the relief of agriculture and OF gen.
eral Industrial conditions" The reduc-
tions, 1t was explained, were insisted
upon by Secretary Hoover as a conces-
sion to the agricultural interests,
when, on behalf OF President Harding,
he negotiated with the carriers the
basis for settlement Of their claims
against the government, growing out
Of federal control.
This was made the basis OF the
adjustment" the settlement continued,
"the railroads rellnquishing their so.
called labor inefficiency' claims. and
undertaking to inaugurate reductions
In the export grain rates, while the
administration undertook to assist
them by securing early settlement OF
their claims against the government" "
Moreover. the statement declared,
1t was discovered under the old con.
dltions that the Canadian railways
and ports were getting the lions
share of the grain movement to
Europe. including quantities of Amer.
lean grain.
''ro meet this condition." 1t said,
"and insure that the American pro.
ducer would not only get his full
share Of the sales In foreign markets,
but would also get the highest posi-.
BILE price. a movement for reducing
export rates was inaugurated by the
administration"
