All the work of valuutii in which the commission lias been engaged for years, the government argued, would lie rendered, o( no value in rate-making, in determining excess earnings, and in other administrative steps un less Uie supreme court upheld the lower courts of New York and held that the courts have no jurisdiction to interfere until after the valuation finding of the commission have been made the basis of administrative ac tion. x , Should the roads succeed In this initial attack, it was declared by gov ernment councel, they might later as sail the whole valuation proceedings on the ground that the values uted did not represent an accurate calcula tion of the worth of their property. Itailroads approximating 'M5,WM miles in length, with a tentative val uation of nearly SIU.OOO.OOU.OUU, would have the tentative valuations of their property made by the com mission set aside, it was declared, if the contention were borne out that the commission bad not given proper consideration to a number of items of value.

B. UP) f'o-operative inarkating can and should be made a success in America, be cause it, provides the best means of stabilizing the country's agricultural marketing o.-gnnization. President Coolidge dec'nred today to tile an nual convention of the National Coun cil of Farmers' Co-operative Market ing associations. Addressing at the- JVhite House tlie delegates to the convention, the president warned that co-operativo marketing possessed no magical at tributes, and asserted thut it must start from the soil and be developed upward. Co-operative marketing, the presi dent continued, must have its be ginuings in small and modest uuits and must truin tho people who are to use it to think co-operativciy. Tne president also advised that co operative marketing be approached as a principle, not ns panacea. MR. LOWDEN SPEAKS WASHINGTON, Jan. fi. Formu lation of a definite policy with regard to pending legislation on farmers co operativo marketing was tho out standing question ucrorc representa tives of the movement assembling hero today for the third annual con vention of the national council of far mers co-operative marketing associa tions. An annual business of nearly a billion dollars was said to bo repre sented in the present association, membership of more than 1,100,000.

' ojeetlnj to Continue.' After an address of welcome by K. W. liingbam, of Iiouisville, Ky., as chairman, other speakers listed in clude A. J. McPhail, president of the Canadian Co-operative wheat pool. The meeting will continue four days. Closer organization of agriculture to promote orderly marketing and as sure return of at least cost of pro duction to the farmer, was urged by Mr. Lowden. Indiscriniinating market ing; without thought of requirements and at whatever price offered, and monopolistic control, the two methods which are commonly opened to agri culture, arc both wrong, he said. In stead, be asserted, the former must retain control of tho prico of his pro ducts until they reach the consumer. Organization Urged. To accomplish this, Mr. Lowden of fered organization to increase the "bargaining power'.' of the farmers, adding: "These forces of society repre senting the purchasers of farm pro ducts in the main have become highly organized, while the farmers have made less progress in that direction than any other large body-of our cit izenship. They are, therefore, -at a tremendous disadvantage." Citing recent instances in which proper organization for marketing would have benefitted tho farmer. Mr. Lowden said: "It is safe to say that the larger part of the bumper corn crop of 1023 was sold at a prico which did not cover cost of production. If corn gro wers had been organized nnd found thut the murket would not receive their corn at what it cost them to produce it, they would not hnve dump ed the larger part of the crop upon the market in a few brief months. 'They would hove sold snarinzlv. They would have stored the remain der, knowing full well that seasons of bountiful production arc ulways fol lowed by seasons of low production. nnd that nt no distant day they would receive a fair price for their corn. . . 'In other words, the corn farmers. if organized would have adjusted the supply to the actual demand. And they would have made this adjust ment before the price became demor alized. " .

Of this enormous amount of mow the cigarette industry paid $182,711 735.93, or nearly two-thirds of the toll tax paid by the entire tobacco businei We believe you will appreciate tlr when nearly fifty cents of every dolt, paid by you for cigarettes goes to tk government, you must receive in ajv! rettes a value in return for your mow;; that is rarely given in any commodicf That the public appreciates tbf great value is shown by the enormia! . increase in the consumption of CP rettes.
