Of its employees, W. G. Bierd, Presi-

enough money to run it under the ole
wages" he said.
THE present freight and passenger
rates are more than the public can
bear and must come down. To bring
them down the roads must be take q
out OF their bankrupt condition and
there are only three steps which can
bring that about The price OF fuel
must come down, cost OF maintenance
materials must De reduced and wages
must be lower.
The situation is so bad now that
farmers are burning their corn be
