RATE REDUCTION is DEFENDED
Railroad Man Tells of Proposed Freight
Rate Cut to Coast

hington-Proposed reductions of
freight rates on traffic from Mississip-
pi river valley points TO the Pacific
coast via Southern ports were defended
Tuesday before a hearing of the inter
state railroad commission by represen-
tatives of Mid-W estern railroads
W. NJ. Rhott, foreign freight man
ager of the HIN = Tcsss+rf the
road, opposed TO make the reduction
s'because business is not moving from
the Middle West at the present
charges"
First class freight rates from Chi
cago to New Orleans are now S2.26 per
hundred pounds, he explained, while
from Chicago to New York they are
S1.5711a.
"Thus nobody will ship first class
freight destined for the Pacific coast
via New Orleans" he said, when he
can get into New York cheaper and
get better and more frequent boat
service via the canal"
The lower water rates from New
Orleans would not equalize this, the
witness insisted.

thesereductions?" A. z. Humburgh,
counsel for the Illinois Central, asked.
Nothing at ALL" the witness re
plied. "and something very desirable

A CARD.

NeweRton, La. Sep. %, 1922.
To the People of Newepton and
Othes:
AS q result of the unfortunate
occurrence at the Basket Ball game
between st. Joseph and Newellton
on the night of the 22nd, there has
been much harsh and to say the least,
unkind criticism Of our athletics and
especially of Earvin Poe, the captain
of the boys team.
We feel that we would be dere-
lct in our duty should We remain
silent in the matter, since 80 much
has been said.
We wish to state that our school
has as clean athletics as other
schools; that no one can accuse Us
of fostering anything but the high
est type, that anything short Of
clean athletics is and has always been
frowned upon by US and the entire
faculty; that in the case in point we
acknowledge, as does Earvin himself,
that he lost control Of his temper and
acted very rudely toward the ref
cree; that we believe that the referee
did his best to give the two teams
justice, however it Is impossible for
q referee to see all the fouls COM
mitted and especially would this b
true at night.
We claim that it was Earvin's
privilege as well as his duty to call
the attention Of the referee to fouls
or fragrant violations Of the rules.
when done in q respectful manner,
and that he was entitled to an
answer. We believe that az captain
he had the right to stop the gane
until some disposition was made Of
the matter, and that the referee had
the right to rule him off the game
for his disrespectful language and
attitude.
We wish to state in conclusion
that we considered the matter settled
since the player apoloeised to the
referee on the court and the apolgy
was accepted.
Therefore we see no reason why
the unfortunate occurrence should
be further discussed.
(Signed)
