The Minneapolis and st. Louis re-
ducton would have the effect OF
enhancing Minneapolis Importance as

able the manufacture there Of flour
from wheat now shipped to Chicago
and points eastward for milling.
Claim Rate Is Unfair
The rate is unfair, however, Of
ficials Of the six railroads in con-
ference here today believe, to points
in the southwest and in the lower
Missouri valley, which depends prin-
cipally or entirely on other roads
than the Minneapolis and st. Louis
for conveyance of grain and flour.
To match the reduction the six
comforting roads must sacrifice rev.
enuc all over the west on two of their
initial commodities.
The Minneapolis and st. Louis rail
road. officials pointed out, is inter-
estcd in serving Minneapolis because
it does not operate extensively in
the regions Of the west which would
be most keenly affected by such an
alteration of the rate structure as it
has instituted.
Action Inks Other Roads
While frankly admitting that they
might be compelled to meet the re-
duced rate, conferccs were plainly Of
the view that the present policy of
sacrificing Minneapolis interests for
the sake of rate structure as cquit-
able as possible to the entire mid.
west had worked out satisfactorily
and that they desired to continue it
Some of the roads affected by the
reduction are irked because the Min.
