(United Press Staff Correspondent.) DUBLIN, Feb. 2 7. Prosperity is tho condition which, above all others. F t. SHAIR, chairman of the traffic bureau of the Reno, m Nevada, Chamber of Commerce, has prepared a paper on the rate subject that will be of extreme interest to Vendletonians as well as others' in the intermountain country. Particular attention is called to Mr. Shair's suggestion that rail roads should now look to the development of interior business, rather than to coast businea in competition with ocean carriers. t'; M. Shair's article follows: I "After fullowinc up the reports of the various hearings on the Transconti nental rute ease and being In personal attendance at the Ban FrniVclHco hear- Jng and at Heno, it would appear thnt we are simply Bolnf? over tho same ground covered In previous casii that we have had, even though I firmly be lieve thnt we have made, or are limiting, In tho presnt fight a stronRT caso than ever boforo. Ve have endeavored to nrove that the nronosed terminal ., , rates, if applied to Intermediate points would be reusonHble and compensatory j and UHBumlns; that our rontetitlon Is upheld, we are still faoed with the fuct that the carriers as a wholo are not earning the necessary revenue to pay n reasonable roturn on their Investments, v. '. ' , ' . "Tho thought occurs to me that not only must we continue to fight before the I. C. O. as In the past, but we should begin a country wide campaign of education, for want of a better word, to bring before the poople tho necessity of a change in policy on the part of tho railroads. The transcontinental car riers are maintaining the si'ime policy and working along the same lines as When they were first built fifty or sixty years ago. overlooking the faot entire ly, that conditions and tho country are not the same ns when the railroads Ityre Saturday , were built. Veuully a buslnes house or a1 manufacturing business must ndjunt Itself to changing conditions but apparently there has been no effort at a re S adjustment on the part of tho carriers. v. "Tho Panamu canal wob built primarily to cheapen transportation costs and It should be usee? for the purpose for which It was built. The canal nec essarily took considerable tonnage from the rail carriers but Instead of chang ing their policy and attempting to bulld up the country along the line of their . cwn rails, their every effort seenis to be to try to put In rates thnt will take tonnage from the water carriers at) rates that they themselves admit will make the railroads no money. ' .'' "The entire burden of the' testimony of Air. Spence, director of traffic of t)te Southern Paclflo company, and of Mr. Worthlngton, vice president of the same company, at the San Francisco hearing on the eustbound application was . to the effeot that If they could put In rates thutwon!l meet water competl 'tlon they could get additional tonnage. 'While It would not pay Interest and taxos It wpuld return tho actuul transportation and handling cost. If they voiild.Rpply this same tine of reasoning to the Immense tgrltory bvtwocn tho Sierras and the Missouri river, they oould pick up an enormous additional traffic on which they could Rt't a return that would net them considerably more than transportation und handling cost and still be low enough to move the tonnage. "For Instance, last year In the state of Nevada, there were thousands' of tons of hay that (could not be moved because tho published freight rate was too high. Tho result was that not only did the furmcr loso the huIo of the hay but the railroads did not got uny haul out of It, It would not have been ncc ossary to name a' rate that would cover only transportation und handling costs, 1ut th existing rate could have been reduced to a point that would permit the tonnage to move and still bring tho -carriers a revenue that they did not get, The blanket rate Increase of August, 1920, made tho rate on practically t-l grades of ore In Nevada so high that the minus shut down, not only putting the mines and minors out of commission, but depriving the carriers of 11 very considerable portion of their usuul tonnage. A rate along the lines that the carriers wunt to put In to meet water competition would move these ores. One could go on indefinitely and cite any number of commodities that would bring the railroads the additional tonnage they bo strongly urge their need of, and nt rates that would Actually produce some revenue. , "President Harding, In his message to congresaon the 5th of December, 1 pointed out very emphatically tho policy that should be adopted by tho roll curriers und to the best of my recolluction It is tho first time, thnt one in so high a position has hud tho "backbone" to tell tho carriers the truth. The pelloy that moy have been tho proper one In the 70's and 80's, was probubly nil rlghj at that time. However, In any other business changing conditions nec essitate a, change In policy, but the carriers have not the nerve to face the sit uation. ' ' .... "I do not believe that any thinking man wants to see the railroads put out of business nor tho numerous stockholders lose money, but why should tho Rovernmeut bo culled upon to hold an umbrella over their heads any more than they do over any other Industry or line of business, As an example, twenty years ago there were numerous factories in the country whose sole output wan pleasure vehicles and wagons. Some of theso concerns had Invest ments In plant and equipment that ran Into millions of dollars. The advent of the automobile put thenx out of business almost over night as there was i!0 demand for the output of their factories. Neither the government nor the leoplo stepped. In to make good their losses but these concrens wero compelled to convert their plants to other production. The same might bo said of the breweries and distilleries when the,Yolttead act went into effct. "Eventually we hope for the enuctmi'iit of an absolute long and short hnul clause and when thlB comes to puss the rail carriers will have to forget water Miss Katheryn Mclntyre at the home "lands out In the mind of the Irish an of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.
