~ RAIL RATE GUT ON WHEAT PRODUCTS IS FOUGHT BY N. D, Reflroad Commission Chairman Declares Move Would Be Discriminatory Members of the state board of rail- road commissioners Tuesday were pre- paring to oppose a redue- tion of rail rates from 12 cents to & cents per: hundredweight on ship- ments of wheat products from Min- neapolis to Chicago, scheduled to be heard Feb. 11 at Chicago by the In- terstate Commerce commission. ‘The rate, effective on four and Duluth, but not incluling similar. } products from North Dakota grain, was scheduled to become effective Sept. 10, 1935. Protests by Governor Welford and members of the state commission, claiming the rates were “discrimina- tory and prejudicial,” resulted in the suspension of the rate. Representa- tives of the North Dakota state mill and elevator, also opposed reduction. Minneapolis milling interests, mem- bers of the state board said, claimed the rate necessary because of an emergency growing out of the iizht weight of North Dakota wheat. Representatives of the state mill will also oppose the rate, asking that if it be allowed to become effective. it also include shipments from North Dakota. “This matter is one most serious to, the grain and milling interests and producers of grain in the state,” Ben C. Larkin, chairman of the state commission, said. “Every effort will be made to defeat the discriminatory proposal. Our staff now is preparing statistics and rate studies to be pres- ented at the Interstate Commerce commission hearing, at Chicago.” 11 Caskets Are Mute Evidence of Tragedy Fort Wayne, Ind.

FOR NATURAL ‘BULK’? Needed to Correct Constipation* Most people recognize the seri- ousness of constipation. But too often they dose themselves with strong cathartics that often actu- ally lead to chronic constipation. The natural way to check com- mon constipation is to correct the condition which causes it—usually, insufficient “bulk” in meals. How can you get “bulk”? Fruits | and vegetables have some. Bran has more. The most popular product of this kind is Kellogg’s Att-Bran. The “bulk” in ALL-Bran is gentle in action. Ant-Bran also supplies vitamin B and iron. This delicious cereal is a whole- some food. Serve ALL-BRAN regu- larly for regularity, with milk or cream—or use in cooking. ‘Two tablespoonfuls of Att-Bran daily will usually correct constipa- tion due to insufficient “bulk.” If not relieved, see your doctor. Awt-Bran gives you gentle internal exercise. Sold by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek. “Constipation due to insufficient “bulk” —$ | be- ? |coming evident in lower : on the foreign exchange. | Rumors, either denied ot silence in Washington, con sibilities of further dollar di raising the price of gold, jof the silver dollar, increase in the monetary price of silver, and changes in excess reserves of member banks of the federal reserve system.
