SALT OPERATORS PROTEST
Object to Increased Freight Rates On
Kansas Product.


Kansas salt operators have Joined
in the protest against the increase in
freight rates that will be put into eff
feet August s, asserting that the rails
ing of rates will seriously affect their
business by making it impossible for
them to compete with salt producers
of other fields. Clyde NJ. Reed, chair
man of the public utilities commits
sion, has agreed to take their protest
to Washington and present 1t to the
interstate commeIce commission.
Two of the largest salt fields in the
United States are located near Hutch
inson, Kan, and Detroit, Mich. The
two big markets these fields reach
are at Chicago and st. Louis, where
more than 100000 tons of rock salt
are shipped annually. Detroit salt
operators already are able to ship to
both of these markets cheaper than
Kansas operators and with a further
increase in Kansas rates it is said the
Kansas product will be unable to COM
pete profitably in either market.
The hardships the new rates will
place on salt and brick plants and
other industrial and agricultural ac-
tivities of this state will be considered
in the outline Of the case that will be
drawn at Des Moines. Ia, today by n
committee headed by Chairman Reed
of the Kansas commission. that is
working on the rate case that will be
argued before the interstate COM
merce commission August Is.
