The three hundred years since 1920
have seen civilization push its way to
the Pacific coast, the article points
ont. The trees fell down before the
advance just as the Indians fell back.
Many of the states in the path of that
civilization once produced all the lum-
Der each needed and exported some.
Now it is different. Those states are
all importers of forest products and
they are paying high freight rates IN
addition to the high cost Of lumbe"
and other products. Soon the country
will turn to Alaska. which President
Harding has just visited where the
forest wealth can only be estimated.
That will mean still higher freight
rates and still longer hauls.

rates cannot justly be charged against
the Transportation Act; that it is not
| responsible and that without ii both
railroad rates and costs of producing
| transportation would have been as
high as they are now. He brought out
the fact that il the roads had been
permitted rates which would earn a
fair return on the value of $12 900, 900
600 which Senator Brookheart claims
the market prices indicate the roads
are worth, they would have had much
higher rates than has been the case,
because the net earnings that they
| have had have fallen $3.50, 900, 900
short OF fair return upon tle value
fixed by the Interstate Commerce
Commission and would be nearly one
billion dollars short of making a fair
return even on the reduced valua-
ton Senator Brookheart contends for,
so that it cannot be said that high
values or watered stock have in any
way affected rates.
Mr.. Budd paid a tribute to the loyal
I railroad employees; he said:
1.-THE greatest asset a railroad COM
pany can have today is a loyal and

hghtened view and courageous stand
taken by Vice-President Doak of the
brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
when in recent address in New York
Mr.. Doak said:
Labors interest in adequate finan-
cial support for the railroads must be
apparent to all. Too often, however.
iaoor is placed in an awkward posi-
tion on this subject and frequently
misunderstood, in general being mis-
understood and misrepresented many
