■utlwes are also
expected to petition tne Railroad laibor
Hoard for further reductions in railroad
wages and thu fact tliat leaders of the
great railroad unions Wednesday com-
pleted a strike vote, showing that nearly
1.7r.u.(i0ii rail employes have voted in favor
. | walkouts for cuts already received, has I
increased apprehension as to what may
tak. place if the program of the carriers
is (nit through.
"When freight rates cost from one-halt
to too per cent of the production price to
tanners it ts easily seen that an impossi-
ble bin-den is being placed upon agricul-
ture." Wallace said. "They Impose ft
differential on the great surplus food
growing districts" that is impossible to
[peel under present pi lees. When wheat
was selling at $2. He- rates were not so
tremendous a burden, but with present
prices of wheat and all other grains and
agrieulturaI products, present rates can
in.i he met.
"This is not a question of class com-
paint, it is not the farmers alone who
are hit Everybody along the line shares
n the burden throngn higher prices.
"Of course freight rates are not the
reason farmers are suffering now. But
they are one of the big reasons."
Speaking before the convention of the
National Vehicle Association. Wallace
•aid that prosperity would not return un-
til farmers do receive assistance.
"I ’rices for farm products have decreas-
ed below pre-war levels at a. rate that is
ruinous to the producer," he said. "At
ihe same time the costs of production and
rent, taxes, costs of machinery and trans-
portaton have stayed high for farmers. ,
Until the proportion between these two
price levels is evened up there can not be
business prosperity in the United States. I
The cry for cheap food at any price is I
fallacious.”
The railroad brotherhoods, following
completion of their strike vote, showing
approximately N5 per cent of the men In
favor of a walkout as a protest against 1
u 12 p.-r cent wage cut already in effect,
went into executive session here Wednes- i
day to map out a plan to meet the expect-
ed demands for further reductions by the
executives.
1,. 10. Sheppard, president of the Or-
der of Railway Conductors, said that the
unions would be ready to make an oft l-
dal .statement on their strike attitude
within a few days.
