Legislators Urged to Help Rail- roads. Rich Hill, Jan. 25.—As the out- come of a special meeting of the Rich‘ Hill Commercial Club attended by stock shippers of Bates County and railroad officials, the following reso- lutions were forwarded today to the State Public Service Commission, Representative J. N. .Sharp, State Senator John Baldwin and the State Federation of Commercial Clubs: That whereas, conditions of pas- senger and freight service are such that it appears that the roalroads of this State are in evident need of fi- nance, it is, therefore, the feeling of ;|the members of this commercial club }! generally that your honorable body deal fairly and leniently with the _| railroads; that it is-to be ‘for the best interests of the people at large to .| show the railroads every considera- ;| tion possible, and if, in your judg- ment, an increase in rates is neces- sary to render more adequate ser- vice, then we would favor an in- creased rate that would make such service. possible. Be it further resolved, That the legislative body of the State- of Mis- souri be earnestly requested not to pass any drastic or restrictive legis- lation that will place further hard- ships on the railroads in their lawful attempts to handle their business. _ In his speech before the meeting J. . M. Sommers of Nevada, Mo., com- mented on the fact that the people over the country are having a change of heart toward the railroads. “The people are awakening to con- ditions, he said, ‘‘and it will only be a short time until the railroads will be -getting a square deal, under wnich they can assure the public ad- equate service.” What the China Eggs have Done < For Us.
