Editor The Star:
Referring to the last paragraph OF
the editorial on tho front page OF
your publication dated Nov. 1. 1923,
signed the Apple Eater" ] am TAX
ing the liberty Of quoting below an
article which appeared in the Chicago
Daily Journal. under date OF July 3.
1929. which you might publish for
the information and enlightenment OF
the Apple Eater" and also in justice
10 the railroads:
This spring the agricultural agent
Of the American Railway association
bought some Northwest coast apples
from retailers in New York city and
paid from 10 TO 10 cents each for
them. He found on investigation
that the grower received about ]
cent each for that quality OF apples.
Tho freight from tho shipping point
TO New York was a cent and quar-
ter, and the cost OF distribution in tho
city by truck about the same. With
n reasonable wholesaiers' profit add.
ed. the cost OF such apples to the re-
taller should be about cents each.
The railways present this instance
as proving the injustice OF the com.
plant that high prices are due to
high freight rates-and in wide
range OF articles. perhaps In ali. the
railways arc right. II the apples in
question had been carried free from
Washington or oregon TO New York
the consumer never would have
known the difference. Somebody
would have taken up the slack;
whether wholesaler or retailer, the
agent who made the investigation
does not Indicate.
grhe dealers from whom that agent
bought sell many things beside fruit.
Even with those items added, the
spread between producer and con.
sumner Is far too great; but Is not
part OF the remedy. AT least, In the
consumers own hands?

tako an attitude OF damn the cx.
