A FEATHER IN
MINNESOTA'S CAP
Plays Main Role in Obtaining Reduc-
ton i'm Freight
Rates

Much of the credit for the recent
order of the Interstate Commerce COM
mission for reducing freight rates is
due to the" Minnesota Railroad and
Warehouse Commission. Not only was
this commission one of the first to de-
lnand reasonable transportation rates
as a means of restoring normal in
tlustrial conditions but one of it's mem
bers prepared the main brief in the
case and presented the closing argu-
ment before the federal commission.
The numerous statistical and analyti-
cal data supporting the brief and ar
sument were prepared under the di-
rection Of 3. G. Smith, statistician to
the Minnesota Commission.
Commissioner Fred w. Putnam lis
chairman of the special committee of
the national association Of state com
missions in charge of the movement
for lower railroad rates and was Sc
lected by that body to prepare the
brief on behalf of twenty-nine (29)
state commissions and various farmer
and industrial bodies. He was also
selected to make the closing argu-
lnents.
Mr.. Putnam, as his chief argument,
commended that the carriers would do
more business and earn a greater re-
rurn by reducing their rates instead
of maintaining the war schedules, be-
cause substantial reductions would
stimulate trade generally and increase
railway traffic. With estimated reduc-
zion of 25,OOO,0OO annually in labor
costs, as well as lower prices for fuel,
. materials and supplies he cOntended
that the railroads under normal cOndi-
items could reduce rates and still earn
Il return of at least per cent. And
he had the figures to prove his as.
sertions. That they were potent and
convincing seems to be indicated by
the fact that the rductions ordered are
computed to earn a return.of 5A per
cent. -;

badly needed field work was accom-
plished." T.
