RATE REDUCTIONS N
EFFECT ON RAILROADS
EXPLAINED FOR PUBLIC

Rate reductions which were put in
effect by the railroads during the past
month are misunderstood by a great
majority of the travelling and shipping
public, according to the statement of
Jack Leary division freight and pas
senger agent Of h Burlington at Cas-
per.
The principal reductions according
TO Mr.. Leary's statement were made
in the freight department. Effective
January /. a fiat 10 per cent reduction
on wool n livestock shipments was
made. This 10 per cent reduction was
also effective on shipment OF all farm
products and in a vast number of 9TH
err commodities. In addition to this re-
ductIon the war tax of three per cent
on freight was also cancelled
On passenger travel an eight per
cent reduction became effective dur
ing the moth on both transportation
and pullman taxes and all war taxes
were taken off.
To illustrate the passenger rate re
duction the straight railroad fare be-
tween Casper aud Denver was reduced
from $3.50 to s11.s5 and h Pull
man fare for the trip from SAG to
$500.
At the present time the changes an
nounoed above in freight and passen-
ger transportation are-the only reduc-
tons effective.

of the weekly luncheon all other plans
were suspended and arrangements
made TO properly celebrate the suspl-
cious occasion. -

the program is that the ~biographers
OF Messrs. Durham and Nichols went
100 far in their Investigations and
so-1e rather delicate situations in the
life OF zach were exposed. They were
among frineds, however. so 1t didn't
really matter.
The Kiwanians made up for this.
however. because each member gave
Mr.. Nichols and Mr.. Durham n pres

delicate that they exploded during the

to the hilnrity of the occasion.
