ASK LOWER FREIGHT RATES
Further Reductions Demanded by
Kansas Livestock Assn.

Further Reductions Demanded by
Kansas Livestock Assn.
Further reductions in freight rates
on livestock are now sought from the
interstate commerce commission in
petitions filed by Sam H Cowan, at
torney for the Kansas Livestock asso-
citation and other livestock organiza-
tions. Cowan declares commerce is
para1yzed by the present high trans
portation costs.
MATTERS of great moment are in
process of being taken hold of by con-
gress and the interstate commerce
commission Immediately looking to
further reduction of freight rates and
a repeal of the rate making rule that
guarantees 5 u per cent upon the val
uation fixed by the commission for
rate making" said Attorney Cowan.
'sThese changes would pave the way
for general and sweeping reductions
in freight rates.
1.-The rights of shippers and matters
of small charges that havee been add
ed. of one sort and another. and the
right to correct rates on particular
lines of railroads on certain commod-
tiles or to. secure adjustment of state
rates, have in effect been taken away
until this new and faRciful standard
of rate making is swept away and we
return to the old and only standard
of leaving to the commission to make
fair and reasonable rates, exercising
their best judgment unhampered by
arbitrary rules

BAN FAVORED BY MELLON
Secretary of Treasury Against Issu-
ance of Tax Exempt Securities.

Washington, Jan. 16.-Adoption of
a constitutional amendment prohibit
ing further issuance of tax exempt
securities was advocated today by Sec
rotary of the Treasury Mellon at a
hearing before the house ways and
means committee. An amendment, he
said, would have the tendency of in
creasing the interest rate on state and
municipal bonds and would do. much
to check extravaganza of states and
municipalities.
Contending it would be better if all
kinds of investments were subject to
the same principle of taxations, the
secretary declared that personally he
favored a ban on future issues of tax
free securities so that basis of uni
formity could be established. Mellon
estimated that $40, 100000 in tax
exempt securities were outstanding
Members of the committee say others
had, estimated the amount as high as
$16,00O,OOO,
