Farm Bloc VIII eend Its
Strength in Effort to
Reduce Costs.
By WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON,
International News Service.


International News Service.
A Senatorial drive to reduce
railroad freight rates through an
act of Congress will be made by
q coalition of farm bloc and
progressive Senators as soon as
the new session gets under way,
it was learned today.
While both groups-the farm
bloc under Senator Capper, Re-
publican of Kansas, and the pro-
gressives under Senator La Fol-
lette, Republican of Wisconsin,
plan extensive remedial legisla-
ton for farmers ailments, lower
freight rates will be the first
objective.
United for Legislation.
A number Of other methods win
Be proposed for reducing trans
portation costs and for improving
marketing service for farmers but
both groups win unite when the
time comes to voting upon any
farm measure.
A bill, providing for lower rates
by direct action Of Congress, win
be introduced by Senator Frank r.
Gooding Rep1 Of Idaho, as soon as
the Senate convenes. Gooding's
measure would place freight rates
in the same category as taxes by
placing q Federal limit upon the
charges to be made by any rail-
road for hauling freight while en-
gaging In interstate commerce. 1t
would be unique method Tor OBJ
taining the desired goal and un-
doubtedly viii stir up serious op-
position from conservative groups.
Dozen Other Measures.
At the same time. a dozen other
measures Nil be introduced seek.
ing to change the Esch-C ummins
Act and probably even repeating it
entirely. Still other bills viii pro-
vile for elimination Of the Railroad
Labor Board restoration of rate fix
ing powers to the Interstate Com
merce Commission and generally
changing Federal laws dealing with
the railroads.
The Government is responsible
tor the present condition among
American farmers and particularly
the wheat-grower," said Senator
Gooding today, In explaining his pro-
posed bill. when the Government

shall introduce q bill empowering
Congress to reduce freight rates
80 1-3 per cent all down the line,
but favoring farm and livestock
products. This may be radical Iegfs-
lation but the situation requires i'm

Gooding said he would also in-
troduce q measure authorizing the
creation Of q freight rate system
based on mileage and his wheat stab
ilization bin for fixing wheat prices
at &1.75 a busheI.
Attitude Of Progressives.
From the La Toilette group came
an endorsement today Of the general
proposal for forcing lower freight
ates when Senator Ralph B. Howell,
Republican Of Nebraska, announced
he favored Congressional action.
I'VE must have lower freight
rates." said Howell. ''The only

mum. I feel that Congress should
act to restore the competition in
rates that once existed between all
railroads. Maximum rates might be
fixed but that should be decided
upon only after careful consider
