TRADING CORPORATION FOR

POSED.
By United Frees
SEATTLE, June 2 Representa
tives of the Pacific Coast Producers
association of Oregon, Washington
and Callforlna, are meeting today.
The association is negotiating with
intercoastal steamship companies for
a rate not exceeding 90 cents a box
for refrigerator space between Pa
cific and Atlantic ports.
C. S. Whltcomb, president, of Los
Angeles, says that lie expects thai
a fair rate will be nssured. The
prime object of the association is
to move the fruit grown In the three
states by water, and this is being
supplemented by step3 taken to form
an export trading corporation, -jnder
the Webb act, and extend western
fruit markets to foreign counllrcs.
High freight rates are strangling
the fruit industry, fruit men claim.
WASHINGTON, Juno 2 Tho na
tions railroads now are in a position
to slash freight rates and institute n
policy of bargain counter bidding for
increased business, officials said hero
today.
Their operating costs, depressed
$400,000,000 a year through the wage
reduction order of the Chicago labor
board, plus $100,000,000 from reduc
tions on coal purchases, the roads
now are face to face with the prob
lem of letting shippers and the gen
eral public in on the easier situ
ation, it was maintained. Rates now
are -70 percent above pre-war levels.
The matter of rate reduction if
wholly up to the roads themselves,
it was pointed out at the Interstate
commerce commission. The roads can
fix new and lower rates and put
them into effect on 20 days' notice
through the simple process of flKng
copies of the schedules with the
commission.
New rates can be put into effect
on five days' notice instead of HO,
provided the railroads and the ship
pers get together and agree to re
ductions. In this case the interstate
commerce commission makes special
dispensation and tho rates go Into
effect almost at onco.

IN MIDDLE
After two intensely interesting
years of service spent iu the heart
of tumultous mlddlo Europe, Charles
Stanley Lamb, son of C. Y. Lamb,
local photographer, arrived in The
Dalles yesterday' to spend several
weeks visiting with his father.
Lamb, after sealng much service
as an enlisted man with the 318th
engineers, attached to the Sixth di
vision during the war, was discharg
ed in France to enter Y. M. C. A
service, and the next two years were
spent In the newly organized re
public of Czechoslovakia.
Conditions in that country, accord
ing to Lamb, were peaceful enough
during his period of service there,
as peace goes in Europe these days,
but it was an uncertain center of
quiet around which the tide of war
surged and receded Incessantly.
Lamb labored among a peoplo who
battled variously for their freedom
during the war; whose men desert
ed the Austro-Hungarlan banner
when tho dual monarchy was still
intact, In order to light with the
Russians and French; and who, nf

children who a short time ago were
suffering from rachitis and anemia,
and were threatened with tubercu
