HARDING IS HOPEFUL
FOR RATE REVISION
Believes Northwest Stands a
Good Chance Of Defeating
Railroads Efforts

Returning today from Washington
where he sat for q month with the
Interstate Commerce Commission in
the grain freight rate investigation,
Railroad Commissioner Fay Harding
said he is hopeful that huge increases
in the North Dakota grain rates. as
suggested by examiners for the fed
eral body, will be materially revised.
Following the completion of argu-
mcnts. Harding said, the Interstate
Commerce Commission conferred
with the II state commissioners who
sat with the commission in an ad-
visory capacity. When q decision will
be reached there Is no way Of telling,
he said.
The fact that North Dakota grain
rates are apparently, though not
actually. lower than the rates in
some other states, put this state con-
tinually on the defensive during the
arguments. Harding said. They were
continually urging the federal body
to establish . uniform scale. which
would mean either an increase for
North Dakota or . reduction else
where.
The argument presented against
this. Harding said. is that in the
northwest grain shipments move only
eastward whereas in other states they
move In all directions. Northwestern
grain has no free transit privileges
whereas other states have such
privileges and the rate is designed to
cover them, so that the transit is
free in name only.
The fact that North Dakota, Min
neSota and Montana stood firmly to-
gether in presenting the case for the
northwest appeared to make q favor
able impression during the argu-
ments, Harding said.
Statisticians have estimated that
the increases proposed by examiners
for the federal body would cost this
state @5.o0o.o 900 yearly.

Richard T. Ely, the speaker said:
Taxes on farm lands are steadily
and rapidly approximating the annual
value Of farm lands: and in period
the taxes will absorb farm lands
values. the farmers land will be con-
fiscated by the state and our farm
crs will become virtual tenants Of the
state"
Urges Farm Bonus
Another remedy for the existing
situation which the speaker pointed
out is one which is being used to ad-
vantage in England. Depletion Of
soils is going on at . dangerous rate
and when farm surpluses are often
driving the price Of farm products be-
low the cost Of production. We are
adding to those surpluses by robbing
the soil" said Mr.. Lowden. The state
and federal governments could aid the
farmer in this by exempting all lands
from taxation which are devoted to
some legume or by paying a reason
able bounty to the owners of the lands
while they kept them out Of cultiva-
tion, the speaker suggested.
THE United States government" :"
Mr.. Lowden explained, now receives
in customs duties from 500, 900 900 to
$3.50 .000, 900 year on the importation
Of farm products. The total acreage
in cultivation in the United States
amounts to 365, ZOO, 900 acres. II 20
per cent Of this acreage were to 60 In
to legumes and bounty of So an acre
were paid by the federal government
upon every acre withdrawn from cul-
tivation, 1t would cost the government
less than $150,000. 900 or considerably
less than 1t now receives through It's
custom offices in the interest Of agri-
culture"
Boys Forced From Farm
The former governor outlined the
contrast between city and rural life
and warned Of the impossibility Of
maintaining much longer the double
standard Of living in the United
States.
A fear that the future farm popu-
lation would be composed Of the ply
sically and mentally unfit because Of
the double standard Of living, was al-
SO expressed by Mr. Lowden.
"The trek cityward Is already un-

tremendously concerned that this mi.
grafton should not drain our country
