Progress Mode on Freight Rotes

The Board of Investigation and Research created by
ysis Of freight rate differences in the South and West as
compared with Eastern freight rates.
Significant findings Of the Board, known to every in
teligent Southerner for years were:
These differences are not justified by costs or other
ularly the rates Of manufactured articles, would create con-
ditions more favorable than have existed in the past for
the development OF particular industries in the South and
West, since present rate disadvantages would be removed"
Average firstclass rate levels in the South are 80 per
cent higher than in the East, and in the West they are %
to "a per cent higher.
TT should be recognized" it said, that high rates
within the South and West on manufactured articles, coupled
with high interterritorial rates, although tending to discour-
age manufacture in the South and West or official eastern
territory markets would naturally encourage the develop
ment Of local industries in the South and West for local
markets A proper settlement of the interterritorial
freight rate problem from a national standpoint should not
depend upon considerations of sectional gains or losses that
might result from the removal of existing differences in
the rates."
Taking our rate level differences, the report said,
West to move more freely into Eastern territory markets.
Unless rates were equalized on the highest regional levels
move more easily into Southern and Western markets.
THE net results would be the creation of a situation
In which each part of the country would develop the par
ticular lines of manufacturing for which its resources were
best fitted"
An adjustment of these unfair rates which have been
saddled on the South since the War Between the States
has been worked for, fought for and prayed for for many
years. The many DoGooders we have in Washington who
are SO interested In the poorer one-third of the country in
the South who are il-fed, il-clothed and il-housed would
really do us some good now if they would get behind the
Congress and get it to issue the Boards requested mandate
to the Interstate Commerce Commission to revise the ex-
listing freight rate structure so as to bring about uniformity.
Folks in the South only want a square deal on freight
rates. We don't want a thing we're not entitled to.
Once something is done about freight rates an expan-
sion can be made in industry in the South after the war that
will materially aid our standard of living. It will help us
to help ourselves. That is all we want.
