FREIGHT RATE
PARITY PLANK

WASHINGTON, July 8. -F-
Democratic Senator Tom Stewart
Of Tennessee said today his party
can bolster itself in the South and
West by adopting platform plank
advocating favorable action on
long standing pleas of those areas
for rail rate parity with the east.
He intends to sponsor at the Chi
cago convention, he added, plank
which would call on congress to
equalize freight rates by legisla-
ton if the Interstate Commerce
Commission fails to order adjust
ments in presently pending cases.
TT is plain that if the Repub-
licans win in November the south
and west can just forget their
ideas of having wiped out the exist
ing determinations against them
on manufactured products, Stewart
declared.
Governor Dewey, the COP NOM
inee, already is on record strong
ly opposing any change in the pres
ent freight rate set-up favoring his
state and the rest of the east. He
made formal statement to the In
terstate Commerce Commission a
year ago taking this position. l."
The Tennesseean recalled that in
senate speech he had predicted
Deweys words will live to haunt
him. and had deplored them as
"a narrow and provincial view
point which gives strong intima-
ton Of sectional prejudice"
Southern and western interests
have argued before the ICC that
his freight rates on manufactured
goods have resulted in retarding
their industrial growth and social
and economic advancement. The
east has countered by saying the
other sections have more favor
able commodity rates.
Stewart said that Governor Dew
ey had complained a freight rate
adjustment such as asked by the
south and west might preclpltate
ga relocation of industry at the ex-
pense of New York, creating I'm
employment in New York in order
that farm workers elsewhere may
be moved from the farms to in
dustrial employment.
In this connection, Senator Stew
art said many farmers of the south
and west were moving to factory
jobs anyway but to plants in the
north and east
