J 20 RAIL COMPETITION Willi SHIPS SOUGH RELIEF HELD ONLY JUST Pending; Application for Right to Meet Water Tariffs on Com i modules la Explained. Tha statement of H. H. Corey, member of the Oreron public eervioe corporation, made publlo last Sunday, In which he expressed views relative to application of the transcontlnen tal railroads, now pending before the Interstate commerce commission, to establish certain carload commodity rates from eastern common points. to compete with ships operating through the Panama canal, was an swered yesterday by H. E. Lounsbury, general freight agent of the Union .Pacific system. "Mr. Corey is quoted as saying, 'Should the carriers succeed in these requests, interior points again will be placed at great disadvantage through the intermediate territory again assuming the burden of support of the country's rail transportation system'," Mr. Lounsbury said. "As a matter of fact, it is obvious that if the carriers are denied the applies tion sought, the conditions outlined by Mr. Corey In the above statement more likely will be. realized. What Railroads Are Seeking. "It Is true that the interstate com merce commission gave carriers relief similar to that now applied for, after completion of the Panama canal, and during period of aotiv water com petition before the war whloh, how ever, was withdrawn while the rail roads were under fer:ert.l 'ostrcl and active competition through the canal had cease" on ao:i unl of ships be ipg ddveited Into ctur service in winning the war. Therefore, rail carriers are again seeking permit slon from the interstate commerce commission to make rates that will enable them, to participate !n the transportation of commodities that are moving almost entirely by water between Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coast ports. "It is not Intended by rail carriers to meet the actual water ratesthat If impossible but they do desire to mike rates to Pacific coast terminals SL-'ficiently above the waterl rates to ret the same kind of tonnage from interior eastern cities that otherwise wri.ld be shipped to the Atlantic and Gulf ports, and thence by water to Pacific coast terminals. Structural Steel la Cited. ' "For example, the rate on struc tural steel from New York and Balti more to Portland, via steamship lines, is 55 cents the 100 pounds. The local rate from Pittsburg to Baltimore is 33 Vfe cents, making a total steamer rate of cents to which shoufd be added a small amount to cover insurance; also, wharfage and hand ling charges at ths Pacific coast ports. "The rail carriers propose to estab lish a rate on structural steel of tl the 100 pounds from New York, Pitts burg and all eastern common points to the Missouri river and east with the expectation of transporting struc tural steel from the Interior produc ing cities to Paciflo coast terminals by rail, as against an entire move ment by water as at present, which arrangement will enable the eastern Interior cities and those in the mid dle west to seoure some of the Pa cific coast trade, which under exist ing water competition is now moving from Atlantic coast ports via teamer lines."' .Application Held Regular. Mr. Lounsbury said that It has been "customary for the interstate com merce and state commissions to grant carriers relief on proper show ing of competition not only for water but for rf.il, to meet that of a shorter rail line between two common points. He pointed out that the Oregon com mission had applied similar relief on occasion. In closing Mr. Lounsbury says that the application over which the dis cussion has arisen is limited to com modities which are heavy and attrac tive to water-borne freight and are moving now almost entirely by water to Racine corm terminals.

Every human beinff is born with a ccr tain quantity of nerve force" some with more than others. Your body normally makes or gener ates nerve force only about so fast, and if through overwork, worry, constant nervous strain or other excesses, you use up your nerve force faster than your body makes new nerve force, then your nerve power becomes weakened, and as a conaequencc your blood may become thin, pale, and watery, and you become feeble, croia, and irritable. In such a state you may not only aufter terrible tortures from a multi tude of alarming symptom, but in your greatly weakened condition you are an catty prey tor the multitude of dangerous germa tth whicn you must come in almost daily contact, and you may therefore easily con tract some dangerous or even fatal disease. In cases of nerre force exhaustion in which your nerve and brain cells are starving for want of a sullicient supply of nerve force or oervo-vital fluid it is worse than foolish to waste your time taking mere stimulating medi cines or narcotic drugs. Your nerve and brain cells must have nerve food or something to supply more nerve force the same as a starr ing person must have bread to build flesh and tissue. For centuries science hat searched for a nerve food. At last a remark able product was brought to the attention of the Paris Academy of Medicine by a cele brated Freofihphysician which contained the principal chemical constituent of active liv ing nerve force in a form which most nearly resembles that in the brain and nerve cells of man. This remarkable product is today con tained in Nuxated Iron so that you may now easily obtain what might almost be termed artificial nerve force simply by taking two tablets of Nuxated Iron three times a day after meals. Nuxated Iron also contains or- franic iron like the iron in your blood and ike the iron in spinach, lentils and apples. Organic iron enriches the blood and plenty 01 ncn red blood means more nerve force so that Nuxated Iron not only directly sup plies the important chemical constituent of active living nerve force to the nerve and brain cells but it also stimulates the blood to manufacture a greatly increased supply of new nerve force.
