Petition for Ten Per Cent
Cut TO Be Announced
BY WILLIAM J. L0SH
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON. Sept. 22.--The
administration answer 70 the farm.
erH demand for railroad rate reduc.
tlonB on farm products is IN process
OF preparation at tho interstate
commerce commission. st was
learned here today
The answer will take the form OF
a declHion IN this Western gain
rate case" which has been pending
before the commission for year.
IL IS believed that this decision VIII
be rendered concurrentiy with the
announcement by the administration
Of It's 'pFacticality for relief OF
farmers"
Tho Kansas public utilities com.
mission initiated the case on Sep
,cnbtr ~. 1922. when II peiitioned
the commission for a flat 10 per
cent reduction on rates on grain,
grain products and hay In western
territory lying between tho Mis-
aIssippl and Chicago on tho EMS
and the Rocky Mountains on the
wesi--tho great grain belt.
Tho railroad commissions OF near.
ly all tho grain states, important
farm organizations and mlilers'
leagues supported the plea.
The petitioners commended that tho
10 per cent reduction permitted in
grain rates by an order OF the com.
mission on December 81. 1921. was
intended to realize tho relationship
between rates on grain and other
commodities. which was seriously
disturbed b. the 10 per cent reduc,
ton IN 1922 from which grain was
excluded.
The commission Is empowered 70
alter the rates in any degree II sees
IT. granting the 10 per cent reduc-
ton asked. greater reduction oil
mono AZ ail. II II grants the 10 PCT
cent cut, grain win be 1851 per cent
beneath tho Lowell Of rates on other
commodities. but still SIS per cent
above the level they stood at before
tho 80 ncr cent postwar increase
In rates ordered by the commission
in August. 1920.
Rates on other commodities now
stand els per cent above the 1920
level.
Relief for farmers along other
lines than rates. however. today
seemed to fade as Secretary Of
Agriculture Wallace indicated relief
plans proposed were impractical.
