John Day Ilikhway boosters have sent their road sen
tries to Boise, so tourists say, and are there telling- the hor-
rors of the Old Oregon Trail to Oregon-bound motorists. We
have a hunch they are a poor set of sulesmen knocking the
other fellow s game instead of Ix-osting their own. And the
!uimlor of tourists you encounter on the John Day highway
would indicate wasted effort. Tourists are far fewer on that
road, according to a recent casual chad. They seem to know
their highways and keep to them. Tourist travel is light
throughout the Northwest, various sections report, so our
Oregon Trail worry may be partially unnecessary,

Whether or not the lower level can be justified by true
operating touts will probably be brought out in later hearings.
Without doubt, the grain sliipjier from these inland points
is at a disadvantage when compared with many other com
modities and water-lo-water routes. Competition with canal
shipping and coast lines have forced low rail rates for strateg
ically located shippers and the loss, is and when any, must
be made up by the shipper who cannot enjoy the competitive
advantage. ?
The condition is not peculiar to the railroad business. The
manulactiirer and retailer have similar conditions, the grow
er likewise. They sell the same commodity frequently at
varied prices to offset varied conditions. Supply and demand
make a hard rule, and through the differential paid by in
land shipping points seems very unjust to the shipper af
fected, the policy has long been recognized and approved
by the I. C. C.
From an impartial standpoint, it seems that there could
be a mutual benefit to glowers and railroads bv a material
reduction in rates on wheat. It is a bread-and-butter com
modity m this section. With a lower rate to the farmer
his profit can be increased to a satisfying degree. His buy
ing power improves. Business generally is lienefited and the
consequent advantage to the rail mad should le worth while
Any adjustment in rates must be mutually advantageous
iwiuiDiiiis mi.' an integral, viuil part of
they must glow and prosper together.
