in a case brought by the Delaware
and Hudson und other eastern rail
rod ds.
Tue federal government took tne
p. uitiun that uuestions of great mo
men! lo the interstate commerce
luiiuiiUsion, the railrouils and the
UT.erol public hinged mi the eff.irt
of tin- Delaware unil Hudson and
other roads to have the courts iutcr
.ne at the present stage in the cum
in. .sion'g physicnl valuation program.
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.

AVASIIINGTON, Jan. 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.
Hecepti'in of the delegates by Presi
dent Coolidge at the White Houbc
and nn address at the opening ses
sion by Former Governor Frunk O.
Lowden of Illinois, a member of the
association's executive committee and
a lender in the co-operative move

ment, were included on the first day's
program.
' 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. " .

The Tobacco Industry

The aggregate tax paid by the tt
bacco business is with one exceptant:
income taxes, the largest item of into

eeives. Last (fiscal) year it amount
to $309,014,050.84. f.
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!
