to Topeka from the Pacific coast or
from Colorado is sold here on the
basis of the New Orleans price. If
the freight rate from New Orleans to
Topeka could be reduced, the price of
sugar, shipped here from Colorado.
would be less.
For this reason, the reduction of
freight rates on sugar would have no
effect whatever on the Topeka sugar
market
Reduce Building Costs.
The reduction of the freight rate
on structural steel by 20 per cent
would result in a decrease in the cost
to the Topeka builder of 8 per cent
of the total cost, George Senne, local
contractor, said today.
Senne stated that, without doubt,
building would be stimulated to a GER
tain degree by the reduction of the
freight rates. The prices of building
material-lumber brick, cement, and
structural steel-have recently been
reduced. The reduction of the freight
rates will bring the building projects
nearer possibility, along with the
other factors.
But, Notwithstanding the uproar
about high freight rates and their
stranguIation of business, there is
something more than high freight
rates behind it, when a 20 per cent
reduction has so negligible an effect
on ultimate prices.

of business depression is a fitting
question: especially from the point OF
view of the transportation agencies of
the country.
Press dispatches from Chicago re-
port that reductions of freight rates,
to the amount of 20 per cent, on GER
tain commodities have been decided
upon by transcontinental railroads
west of Chicago. The announcement
was credited to G. w. c. Luce, gen.
eral traffic manager for the Southern
Pacific railway.
Are High Rates to Blame?
The charge that high freight rates
prices high has been repeatedly made
against the railroads. 1t follows that
if the hfgA-rate charge is true a re-
duction of 20 per cent in the rates
should show up well in the retail
Prices If not-the blame for high
prices and business depression should
be sought elsewhere than at the door
of the railroads.
Local retail merchants stated today
that the reduction in freight rates
from the western points into the mid
die west would have an effect on re-
tail prices. They were unable to state
how much of an effect it would have
because the average retail merchant
in Topeka who handles the commodi-
ties affected, buys his goods laid down
IN Topeka, and has no direct knowl-
edge of what percentage of their cost
to him Is freight charge.
Mean Little to Consumer.
o. B. Cutler, manager for the Poeh-
Ter Mercantile company, said today
that the freight reduction would mean
little to the consumer of the COM
modities affected, in Topeka
THE reduction is meant to apply
from eastern terminals to Pacific
coast points, as far as the westbound
traffic is concerned" Cutler said. at
does not apply to intermediate points,
and is made for the purpose of meet
ing the competition of the water route
from the Atlantic coast thru the Pana-
ma canal to the Pacific coast. There
is an interstate commerce commission
ruling which prevents the freight rates
between terminals from being lower
than the rates from one terminal to
intermediate points If the reduction
sought is put into effect, this rule will
have to be changed.
Canned Goods Cost less.
ION the eastboundN traffic, which
applies largely to California canned
goods and fruits coming into Topeka
from the west, the reduction will
amount to somewhere between cents
and 10 cents a dozen in the retail price
of canned goods"

reduction, multiplied by five-for in
stance a reduction of so cents a dozen
on canned goods-is the effect to the
consumer if the freight charges were
absolutely eliminated, and the rail-
roads carried the goods for nothing.

The sugar price in Topeka, Cutler
said, is fixed by the price of sugar in

HOUSE TO ATTACH Rider
Expected to Put Disarmament Amend

Washington, May-26.-Disarmame
advocates in the senate today expected
that the house will adopt the Borah
disarmament conference rider to the
navy bill when it goes back to that
body.
Il am assured" said Senator Borah,
that the sentiment in the house is
strong for disarmament in concert
with other nations and that, in view
of President Harding's reported OBJ
jections being removed, the amend
ment will be accepted. Its unanimous
adoption by the senate was very graft
flying to me-"
Borah's proposal for bringing the
United States, Great Britain and Japan
together to discuss gradual reduction
over a five-year period of naval arma-
ments was made part of the navy bill

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, May 26.-WHEAT-Wheat I'M
derwent decided setbacks in price today
owing chiefly to reports of rain in the west
and to word that liberal shipment on the
way here from other market centers would
arrive in time to fill deliveries due on May
contracts. The May option in particular
was without support and at one time show
ed decline of more than 10c compared
with yesterdays finish business in May
contracts, however, was very small, July
taking almost the entire bulk of trading.
Initial quotations, which varied from 1c to
&c lower, including May at $1.74 to S1.15
and July $1.30% to $1.312 were followed
by further setbacks and then something
of reaction, July keeping all the while in
side of moderate limits.
Free selling ON the part of a house that
usually acts for seaboard exporters counted
subsequently as a bearish factor. The mar
ket closed heavy, 41%c to 12Hc net lower
