This - what Captain Baker says
about Missouri river transportation
today:
"1hc hard wheat Of the Dakotas

and on to Buffalo. From Bismarck
it is 4 100 haul to Duluth, and
from there to Buffalo there is the
cheapest water spDrtation in the
world.
No Cheaper On Upper Missouri
'There Is no reason to believe
wheat or grain destined Cor the East
may be sent more chcaply down the
lengthy and shal!ow Missouri from
the North than to be shipped in the
way it is.
The lower Missouri is an entirely
different matter From Kansas City
down it should be made navigablc
for boats Of at least 900 tons. for
here you have your produce. Here
your railroads may transfer their
grain and produce to your boats. they
will not do il farther north. They
cannot and earn Il living.
"lf the Missouri were snaggcA from

hOES could move produce to the rail

THE effect of this Court action
means that there will be no colec-

POLICY?

It would seem to be advisable for
motorists to examine liability insur-
ance policies. judging from what
