affiliated with the national board of
farm organizations are marshaling
their influence to force all railroads to
follow the example of Henry Ford and
reduce freight rates. Secretary Lyman
Of the board announced. Tuesday.
Lyman applauded Ford's action Mon
day in asking the Ohio utilities COM
mission to reduce freight rates 20 per
cent on the Ford railroad, the Detroit,
Toledo & IrOntOn.
Freight rates reductions would
slash the cost Of food to the city con-
sumer," said Lyman.
Acting for the Iowa Farmers union,
Senator Kenyon Tuesday planned to in
troduce in congress petition signed
by more than 1000 farmers demanding
freight rate reductions. The petition.
addressed to congress and President
Harding, was presented to Kenyon by
p. A. Hough as president Of the Iowa
Farmers union. According to the petit
ton, approximately $1,7OO,OOO,OOO now
could he cut from the operating costs
of the roads.
This would more than pay the 6 per
cent return, lack of which now pre-
vents the roads from making general
rate reductions, railroad officials say.
This return is more than 81 1000, 100000
year on approximately $19,OOO,OOO,-
600 ut which the roads have been
valued by the interstate commerce COM
mission, which is $5,OOO,00O,OOO above
the actual replacement cost. If the
valuation were reduced to the actual
value Of stocks and bonds outstanding,
at least $3OOOOO,OOO year might be
saved, the farmers charge.
Other ways in which they say saw
ings could be made in operating costs
are these:
elimination Of waste due to useless
competition, $4OO,OOO,OOO; abolition OF
interlocking directorates between rail-
roads and supply companies, 5000, OOO,-
600.
An annual saving Of $4OO,O0O,O 900 al
