Lower Freight Rate
Northwest Denied
by Rail Commission
i \ - • at, it 1'it sk i.i [.ait h.)
Washington, Dee. 27. -The Inter-
state Commerce commission refused
today to order railroads serving the
northwest section of Texas to make
emergency reductions in freight rates
on cattle feed w hich were sought by
livestock producers. While conditions
of drought in the territory have been
such as to make n reduction desirable
to assist cattle producers to maintain
their breeding stock the rates in
themselves are justified as they no\<
exist, the decision said, by the costs
of the transportation service render-
ed.
At the same time railroads which
resisted the application of the cattle
producers should consider the advisa-
bility of nfaking voluntary reductions,
the commission declared, which
though they might cause some losses
to the railroads for the time being,
would In tho end justify themselves
by stimulating and maintaining the
industry. The railroads were re-
quested to give further consideration
to the proposal.
The complaint upon which tho
commission passed today was brought
by the American Livestock association
and by local organizations of cattle
producers. Temporary reductions in
the rates on cottonseed meal and
other cattle feeds produced in Okla«
homa, Louisiana, Arkansas and Kan-
sas for shipment to the northwest
portion ot Texas were sought. The
producers pointed out that railroads
serving New Mexico had made volun-
tary temporary reduction in the rates
on cattle feed and asked the com-
mission to order the Texas railroads
to take similar steps.
The New Mexico situation also was
dealt with today by the commission
in giving the Southern Pacific com-
pany permission to maintain the 50
per cent, reduction in rates on live-
stock feed until next. March 1. The
Southern Pacific originally was per-
mitted to maintain emergency reduc-
tions in force until December 31 only.

All-Soviet Russ

Moscow, Due. 27.—Tin ail-soviet

terday heard reports concerning the

events.
M. Bokolnikoff, acting (-.mmis
Sioner of finance, asserted It- ,v s no'
prepared to present the bu.is t for
1!»23 because of the unstab;« condi-
tion of the ruble and declared that
the depreciation of the ruble an 1 the
budget deficiency had necessitated a
further issuance of paper mom y with
the result that the currency had not
yet been stabilized.
As one of the means for overcom-
ing the deficit, he recommended a
change in the lax system, asserting
that he thought it best to '.hilt from
a tax In kind for tin- peasant to a
monetary tax.
M. Stalin, commissioner of national
minorities, urging unification of the
allied republics, announced that cur-
tailment of tin; soviet army to (iOit.OOii
men had already begun. He ass< rted,
however, that owing to the fact that
thero was still danger front outside
attack becausi of unsettled condi-
tions, Russia should haw a-', strong

si rted that another euust calling t'oi

a car is not brand new it is not a
safe investment Good cars are

floor to be sold as SECOND-HAND! After a car

j abused—the paint is not quite fresh—and its
sentimental value is less—that is all.
You can buy a second-hand car from dealers
and private owners who daily list their
cars in the Sale Automobile Column. It
will «ve you MONEY-BIG MONEY! Eventually, you
will own and drive an AUTOMOBILE. Why not
START OUT NOW, with a good used car—and get your
new car when you have become a seasoned driver? The
