FARM FREIGHT RATES
REDUCTION PROPOSED
Senate Interstate Commerce Com
mittee Wants Schedule as
Low as Possible.
D FIGURES SPECIFIED
Meant as Declaration of Policy to
Commission.

The Senate interstate commerce
luton designed to bring about re-
organization of the freight rates so as
to accord the lowest possible rates on
agI icultural products and live stock at
the earliest possible time. Senator
Smith Of South Carolina, democrat,
chairman of the committee, announced
he would press for action on the res
olution. which would declare a gen.
eral policy With respect to farm
freight rates in line with that rccom-
mended by President Coolidge in his
first annual message to Congress last
December.
Several proposals for horizontal
decrease in farm rates by the Inter
state Commerce Commission have
been made in the Senate, hut in ap
proving Chairman Smiths resolution
the Senate committee decided it would
be unwise to attempt to dictate any
specific rate.
Declaration of Policy.
This resolution" said Senator
Smith, lis for the purpose of declaring
the policy of the Congress as to
freight rates on agricultural products
and directing the Interstate Commerce
Commission to carry this policy into
effect.
Congress having delegated to the
Interstate Commerce Commission the
power to make rates, it was thought
lunwiSe to attempt to dictate any spe-
cific rate, but to direct the commits
sion that in the exercise of its rate
making power that the products of
agriculture should carry the lowest
rate in the rate structure.
This because the products of agri-
culture are the prime essentials in
the economic structure of organized
society. These products are produced
under circumstances that do not per-
/ nit the producer to pass the charges
incident to their marketing to the
consumer"
