Washington-In a sweeping declare.
ton involving the entire railroad situa.
tion, wage scales, depression in indus.
try and finances, the interstate com.
merce commission ordered the. freight
rates on grain, grain products and hay
throughout the western halt Of the
United States reduced by an average
of approximately Is per cent.
Notice was given the carriers that
the commission expected the reduc.
tions to be put into effect Immediately
and by Nov. 20 at the latest, and that
the low state Of railroad earnings,
which led to the increase in 1920,
should hereafter be ,rectified by reduc.
tions in wages and prices and that q
downward tendency should be set for
their rates.
Farmers in the Northwest will reap
direct benefit from the reduction
which will amount to SIS 100000 OF
more, it was estimated.
The actual increase in the grain
growers income will vary according to
the rate from his shipping or primary
market In the case Of the farmer who
pays the freight on wheat from Fargo
N d., to Minneapolis. for example, the
additional value of his product will be
~ cents a 100 pounds.
Benefit on Halt Of Crop.
It Is estimated that the grower will
get the benefit Of the reduced freight
on SO per cent OF his wheat, oats and
rye, and on Is per cent OF his fax. Ap
proximately that proportion Of these
crops Of 1921 still is in the hands OF
the farmer at the primary market.
The grain grower will receive all Of
the benefit of the reduced freight
rates, for the reason that when he
ships his product to the primary mar
.ket he pays the freight to the terminal
elevator. In other words he receives
the market price, less the freight
With the rate from Fargo. N. D.. re
duced AZ cents a 100 pounds or
wheat, the farmer will receive that in
creased in his net return. The same
condition will apply in other primary
markets.
Elevators Not Affected.
The new rate will not apply to graft
or grain products in terminal eleva
tors. Minneapolis terminal elevate,
supply of wheat, oats, corn, rye and
fax is in transit. and II It were to b.
re:shipped. either in the raw state 10
manufactured into -four or other pro
duct. the old rate would apply.
The greatest benefit will accrue K
the farmer through the corn crop
which has been re .orted to be heaY,
in Southern Minnesota, South Dako:,
and other sections Of the Northwes
where corn is q princip. crop. Prac
ticahy none Of the Northwest corr
crop has been shipped to terminals
i Only two cars Of new corn have, bee,
! received at the Minneapolis market
and the same situation is reported I,
be true In other grain centers.
Absorbs Voluntary Reductions.
The order OF the Interstate Com
merce commission makes the rate re
! duction on q basis OF one-half Of tn,
increase granted In August, 1920. Tn
reduction will! absorb individual OF. vol
untary reductions by carriers sinc
August, 1920, In the opinion Of Mime
apolis freight rate experts.
The rate from Fargo. n. D., to Min
! neapoliS before August, 1920, was 1
i cents q 100 pounds on. wheat, the 8
4 per cent increase raising It to 10 cent
4 . 100 pounds. The new rate will b

NO PROSPECT OF

s. WAR WITH JAPAN
 Tokio, July s.-'It is regrettable that the real character and policy of the new American president should be misunder- stood by some of the Japanese people" said Micho Kaku, secretary of the Jap anese embassy in Washington who has just returned on furlough, when inter- yiReed by the Asahi representative. MT Hkaku continued:
 ''The president has often had occasion to express his conviction that an An glo-American- J Japanese entente should be made the basis of world peace There is every reason to believe that the Ameri- can president and his staff are all in favor of the maintenance of friendly re- lations betwesn America and Japan. ~Mr Ozakfs policy of armament lirn- itation produced a favorable impression on American minds in general although the plan was defeated in the Japanese lower house.
 '.On my way back, I was often asked by American friends when the Ameri- can-Japanese war was going to break out, and some young American. women 1 met in the country districts a$sured We that they were determined to offer their services as hospital nurses upon the outbreak of American-Japanese hostiH- ties.
 T vas rather surprised that so many Americans should anticipate an AmeTi- can+Japanese armed conflict. My in1- pression is that the Americans are pre- pared to fight if challenged, but other wise they will be the last to take up arms against the Japanese. The diplo- matic relations of -the" rwU- cUunt1fes are not, therefore, by any means so serious | iy strained or going to be strained as to | justify any anticipation of an American
 Japanese war. If the situation appears to be anything but quite smooth, that iy only because of the propaganda of some Chinese and boishevil1s.7
