A railway rate reduction sufficient to enable a shipper to make a substantial saving on a freight bill would, if made effective now, impair the earning power of every west ern railroad and threaten the solvency of some. All that a railway buys, labor, coal, forest products, steel articles, etc., still range at peak prices, and rates cannot safely be lowered until there is a reduction in these costs. Eighty-eight cents of the railway dollar -is required for wages, fuel, supplies, taxes and rentals. A 10 per cent, rate reduction would wipe out all profit and injure tho credit of lines which have nothing saved up for a rainy day. . . ...The Government, turned the railroads back to their owners in 1'JliO with an average operating deficit of $45,000,000 a month, which had been paid from the Federal treas ury. Now, the railroads have no such recourse. The increase irt railroad freight rates is less than the increase in other prices. ' In January, 1923, the average freight rate of the western railroads was only 30 per cent higher than in 1913, while the average wholesale price of all farm products was 42 per cent higher and the average wholesale price of .all commodities 56 per cent . higher. ' . Fluctuations in prices for faini products cannot be laid at the door of the railroad, since between June, 1922, and June, 1923, under the same transportation conditions, wheat declined 10 cents a bushel in price and corn improved 19 cents. The depressed condition of the farmer, and particularly the wheat grower, has been of groat concern to the railways, as well as lo the public, but happily all signs point to a material improvement. "The estimated income of the farms of America for 1923 is a billion dollars in excess of their income in 1922" (Advertisement, The Cap per Farm Press, October 8, 1923). And the last annual report of the Interstate Commerce Commission says: "Mani festly, existing rates are no longer interfering with the free How of commerce as a whole." Give the' railroads a chance. Don't less their usefulness by impairing Weir earning power. They arc spending more than a billion dollars this year not from earn ings but of new money to put their properties in condition to better serve the public and to prevent car -shortages this because they believe in the inherent fair ness of the American jieoplo and their willingness to pay what good service is worth. Stai-ved railroads, like starved horses, cannot do good work. It is axiomatic that compensatory rate with good service are preferable to cheaper rates with poor sen'ice. Constructive suggestions arc always welcome. C. It. GItAY, iliualia. Nebraska, I'ri sl.b ill ' November 1, ly-3.
