by Advertiser
in Address

DENVER, Colo, May IL
Low freight rates are a disad-
vantage-not an advantage
to the west, it was stated by
Charles F. Hatfield of st.
Louis, president of the Com
munity Advertising department OF the
Associated Advertising clubs Of the
World, who spoke before the conven
ton OF the American Railway Devel
opment association which met mere.
In backing up his statement Mr.
Hatfield declared that low rates allow
eastern manufacturers to exploit ter
ritory that should be served by loca
factories. Western towns have Gu.
off their noses to spite their faces by
insisting on n freight rate that is IA
vorable to the industry in the east,
