HELPFUL WORDS
From An Annapolis Citizen

Is your back lame and painful?
Does it ache, especially after exer-
ton?
Is there a soreness in the kidney
region?
These symptoms suggest weak kid
neys.
If so there is danger in delay.
Weak kidneys get weaker fast.

TO FIX new RATE
Hearing VIII Be Held in Kan
saS City March 21.
Want Lower Charges ON Sand,
Gravel and Stone.

A hearing of considerable interest to
contractors, builders and to shippers
of sand, gravel and stone, is to be
held in Kansas City, March 81, when
the Western Trunk Lines committee
of railway executives meets to decide
on a revision of the freight rates on
sand. gravel and stone in Kansas and
western Missouri.
The proposal is to initiate in Kansas
and western Missouri what is known
as the Nebraska mileage system" of
tenn is based strictly on mileage. At
the present time the rates in Kansas
and Missouri are based on grouping
system. The rates which it is pro-
posed to initiate will affect intrastate
traffic in Kansas and western Mis-
souri, and Interstate traffic between
points in the two districts.
E. H. Hogueland, commG<ce counsel
of the Topeka Traffic association, will
attend the hearing to argue against
the installation of the new rates. THE
new rates would not mean general
reduction of rates-on the contrary, in
many cases. there would be an in
crease in the rates. Hogueland says.
Another bad feature of the pro-
posaI is that it tends to create an OPP
portunity for a monopoly. Under the
present group system, where the rates
are the same from several producers
to several consumers, competition ex-
lists and keeps the price OF the com
modities down Under the straight
mileage basis there would be chance
for a monopoly.
THE plan would tear the heart out
of the system of adjustments which
we have built up in Kansas"
