NORTHWEST HITS
FREIGHT INCREASE
Utilities and Rail Commits.
sioners Say Producers
Would Be Harmed.
By the Associated Press.

Utilities and railroad commission
ers Of Northwestern States. opposing
proposed is per cent railroad freight
rate increase. told the Interstate Com
merce Commission today the increase
would harm producers of their terri
tories without benefiting the railroads.
y. G. Bruce, Idaho public utilities
commissioner, said the increase won't
do any good"
He recited figures of shipments of
potatoes live stock and grain from
Idaho in an effort to prove that the
agriculture section of the Northwest
could not bear additional freight tar
It's in reaching their markets. It
would tend to divert traffic from the
railroads, he said. to the disadvan-
tage of railroads and farmers alike.
Charles A. Root, public service
commissioner of Utah, said freight
rates we're already at a high level and
dsproportionate to prices received
Tor goods shipped by rail.
Others Join in Plea.
State commissioners of Kansas and
North Carolina joined the Northwest
efn States in opposing the proposed
increase
e. r. Sloan, Kansas State Corp
commissioner, said the insufficient rev.
enues of the railroads were due to loss
OF traffic rather than to inadequate
rates.
Stanley WinbOrne utilities commits
sioner of North Carolina. asserted the
main cause of the present railroad pre-
dicament lies in the fact that for the
past 10 years they have been losing
business to truckers
Wlnborne said if higher rates were
granted, special consideration should
be given to the peculiar shipping Sit
uation in the South.
c. H. Noah, traffic expert of the
North Carolina State Utilities and
Railroad Commission, said an increase
would seriously hamper movement OF
coal in North Carolina.
r. G. Fulbright of the Southern Pine
Association, opposing the rate increase
said that lumber was paying the maxi
mum freight rates possible.
Milk Professors Object.
The Evaporateo Milk Association
told the commission Is per cent in
crease in freight rates could only
make the transportation problem much
more difficult of sound solution"
The association said in brief:
What the country needs is consoli-
datlon. coordination and less capacity

FEBRUARY NUMBER OF
 ALASKA SPORTSMAN
 VERY INTERESTING

During the early days, Dr. Wm. F. Good travelled by dog-team to bring relief to tooth-weary pros pectors-now he travels almost entirely in a seaworthy, modern ly-equipped AZ foot yacht and visits outposts of civilization in Alaska.
 Dr. Good, a man weighing near ly three hundred pounds, has shattered the theory that Alaska is place for only the gaunt, raw boned type of fellow, says Gerald A. Estep in the February number of The Alaska Sportsman, just issued. He tells of the Doctor and the adventures of the dentist and his "crew" in an interesting manner.
 Illustrating the article are pic lures of the doctor, his daughter, Anna, and assistant, Harold Is cheu, and of the ship, Cheechako, and some of the ports such as Belkolfsy Unga and Unalaska as visited by them.
 'Lituya-ths Bewitcher" a story of Lituya Bay by Jay Williams of Juneau is also featured in the issue. Several large reproduc- tions of aerial photographs illus trate this article and the cover is a picture of Mount Crillon at Lit uya Bay.
 In 'Snowbound", John Adams tells of a hunting trip in the Knik River Valley. -Four Long Blasts" by Clarke Crichton, Jr., is an article on the activities of the Coast Guard in Alaska. End of the Season" is the last of a series of letters of Cheechaka written by Mrs. Rose Gum.

MAE GOES WEST
(Cleveland Plain Dealer)


 The human race can date its woes from Adam and Eve, and so can Mae West. The actress troubles start not so much from the original pair as from their Lmpersonators in a recent radio skit. Mae, it seems, was Eve, and some of the things she said didn't sit so well with the radio audi ence. Now her name is taboo on the National Broadcasting chain, except in news bulletins.
 It all started when listeners protested to the Federal Com munications Commission, h c broadcasting company and the sponsor. Apologies have flown back and forth since, but that seemed not to be enough. Hence the ban on Mae West.
 That languid voice that has made Mae West famous, the "come up and See me sometime sort of thing, is really to blame. The script for the sketch was in- offensive, it is said. It was the way it was read which carried more meaning than the lines in- tended.
 Of course, if movie tradition were followed, and Miss West could have been seen as she spoke, it all might have passed over. The star of the pictures is always able to hypnotize her way out of difficult situations through her half f-shut eyes. But over the air waves that personable quality was lacking. Mae West has gone west on the radio.

 "The Canned Salmon Industry has been engaged in an advertis- ing campaign for two years in an effort to stabilize its markets and secure it's future. We recognize that the present situation requir- es an even greater effort. The packers have doubled their ad- vertising contribution and we are going to lay down the heavies advertising barrage in the history of canned fish marketing to try to move the large supply still un- sold.
 By this intensive promotional campaign which will deliver more than two hundred and fifty million salmon sales messages to consumers during 1888, we hope to restore salmon movement to the rate at which it was progress ing following the big 1886 pack, " MT. Buschmann said.
 The intensive localized drive through newspapers, outdoor pos ters, and radio advertising will be sharply peaked during Lent and in the early summer, accord ing the announced plans. The magazine advertising of Canned Salmon, which is also being in- creased this year, will run thru out 1888.

Drive To Sell Surplus
 Canned Salmon

SEATTLE, January-With more than four million cases of the 1887 canned salmon pack still un' sold on the first of this year, tht Canned Salmon Industry is today launching the greatest advertis ing drive in its history in an ef fort to cut the huge supply be- fore next packing season.
 Supplementing the ndustry's magazine advertising, newspap. CTS in 42 cities on January l4th carried the first large size adver- tisement in a campaign which will run through the winter and spring months. This week, out. door billboard posters in full col or in 32 cities will d;liver cam ed salmon's message of nutrition and economy to millions of shop pers. Radio announcements and home economics programs will also carry salunon's story to lis teners in 34 leading market areas
 August Buschmann, president of the Association of Pacific Fish cries and member of the industry advertising committee in discuss. ing the new drive declared: This great advertising drive will put canned salmon before more peo- pie than evsr before. The groc. CTS of the country are showing great interest in this campaign and are planning to fully cooper. ate in moving the great volume of canned salmon still on hand,
 "The increased prices made necessary this year by higher production costs brought about g drastic slow down in the move ment of Alaska's canned salmon MT. Buschmann explained. The business recession in many part. of the country has also had it. effect on commodity movemen and salmon has suffered along
