RAIL BOARD ASKS FOR LOWER RATES Says Agriculture Suffering from Heavy Burden of Freight Charges Washington, Feb. 10.—()}—Drawing @ picture of the North Dakota farm- er in dire straits, F. H. Aughnay, traffic expert for the state railroad commission, Saturday asked the In- terstate Commerce commission to lower North Dakota grain freight rates approximately 21 per cent. ~ Presenting argument in behalf of grain growers in the trans-Mississip- pi grain case, Aughnay asserted the northern carriers were seeking @ 20 per cent increase in rates which al- ready are 46 per cent above the pre- war level. Such an increase, he said, would add $3,941,750 to the farmers’ freight bill for the movement of grain to Minneapolis or Duluth. This would be an increase of $50 for each of the 78,000 North Dakota farmers. a To illustrate his contention that rates should be lowered, Aughnay said the total gross cash income of North Dakota farmers in 1924 was $280,- 000,000, 16 per cent of which became railroad revenue. In a six-year pe- riod this income had dwindled to $46,000,000 while the potrion of it rep- resenting railroad revenue had leaped to 56 per cent. Operating at Loss To substantiate his assertion that agriculture in the state could not con- tinue under an increased burden of freight, Aughnay said a survey of the Red River Valley showed farmers’ net income represented a loss of $7 in 1930 and a loss of $364 in 1931. These figures, he said, did not in- clude interest on investments or pay- ment of any salary to the farmer for his management. He computed the average cost of living for these farm- ers as $813, of which the farm pro- vided only $461. The rate expert asserted that the North Dakota farmer is discriminat- ed against by the present rate struc- ture. As illustration, he said, the carriers claim the average revenue per car on grain in the western dis- trict is $117.09 whereas in his state the average has proved to be $172.24. “The carriers have reduced their rates on fruit, apples, vegetables and potatoes from the Pacific coast states to territory in North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana, to my mind, this reduction in the rates on many commodities should serve as a lesson to the carriers that they can not con- tinue to ask for increases on grain and grain products of as much as they have proposed from North Da- kota and still continue to haul the volume of tonnage they have in the HigH SCHOOL GIRLS SPONSOR ATHLETICS ‘Volleyball and Basketball Among Activities of Bis- marck Group The winter program of the Girls’ Athletic association of Bismarck high school is now in full swing, according to Mrs. Themar Simle, physical edu- eation instructor, - A folk-dance class was organized this week, to meet on Thursdays at the World War Memorial building, and a girls’ tumbling team practices there on Tuesday and Wednesdays.

SENATE IS NEARING VERDICT ON CHARGE Considers Cases of Three Air-; mail Officials While Lawyer : Is Hunted Washington, Feb. 10.—/—Sitting| as a court for one of the few times! in history, the senate Saturday ap-| proached a verdict in its contempt trial of three aviation company of- ficials while it awaited the arrest of Cracken, former assistant secretary of commerce for air. Apprehension of MacCracken, who refused to appear with the other three before the senate Friday to show cause why he should not be held in contempt, was expected mo- mentarily. Facing the senators, Frederick P. Lee, MacCracken’s law partner, told of a visit to his office by L. H. Brit- tin, vice president of Northwest Air- ways, to see the airmail files in pos- session of MacCracken. * Brittin was one of those on trial in connection with the removal of airmail records which had been sub- tigating committee. The others were Harris M. Hanshue, piesident, and Gilbert L. Givvin, Washington repre- sentative of Western Air Express. Brittin, Lee said, looked over the files hastily and was not in the office more than 10 minutes. “When he got through,” the wit- are purely personal letters’.” Lee said he had inspected the pa- pers to be sure they were not ad- dressed to postoffice department of- ficials or air transport companies. He added that he had heard ru- mors Brittin had had trouble with his firm and was about to lose his job.
