REDUCTION OF
GRAIN RATES
TO BE ASKED
Further Cut for Western Ter
ritory to be Sought by N.
D. and Other States

!. North Dakota will become a party
to general plea for reductions in
grain rates in western states, Y. p.
Smart, traffic manager for the state
railroad commission, said today up
on his return from conference in
Kansas City and from St. Paul.
Several western states, including
North Dakota, will join in an amend
ed complaint along the same lines a.
complaint made by the Kansas
railroad commission with the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, alleg-
ing that since lowering Of grain
rates on July l, 1921, conditions have
changed so that further reductions
should be ordered and applied to
states west of the Mississippi river
to the Rocky Mountains and part Of
Illinois and Wisconsin.
The theory on which the complaint
will be made, Mr.. Smart said, is that
reports of railroads show continued
increase in earning power which in
dicate that by the time the Inter-
state Commerce Commission hears
the case tn railroad will be earning
above 6h percent return; that the
farmer of the western states because
his prices are controlled by a world
market has been harder hit than any
other class of people and therefor"
should be given first benfit in fur
ther rate reductions.

Frank L. q. Albertson of Detroit,

ago, was among the visitors in the
city today, coming here on vacation
to renew old acquaintances. Mr.. AL
bertson graduated from the Bismarck
high school. He now is doing spe'
cial work for the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Co. in Detroit, his business
being chiefly with large industrial
plants.
Mr.. Albertson said that he was
immensely impressed with the ap-
pearance of Bismarck and the evil
dence Of progress; in the last several
yeats. The city, he said, appeared
to have improved Huch faster than
any other North Dakota town he had
seen on the Northern Pacific rail-
road.

xpa:ed on the quay, destitute, de-
stracted and abandoned. No allied
vessel has offered to salvage this
last wreckage of human life in the

Nearly a dozen warships remain

ing thei parents in a frantic state.
Sporadic shooting and thefts con-
tinue. Smoke is still emerging from

explain that this is due to the burn

Post of New York, medical director
of the Near East Relief, has urged
the Turks to bury their dead, in or

has appealed to them to vacinate
every one in order to guard against
cholera and smallpox.
