Calling attention to the fact that
c rate of return on railroad in'
rnt has been lower thus far in
1928 than at any time since 1922,
Pelley says that it should be ob-
s that the railroads cannot
tinue to operate successfully and
nder the present quality of satis
factory service under this cross fire
of lower rates and higher costs.
"The railroads can continue to pro-
ride the daequate service that busi
ness requires only if their ciedit
needs are safeguarded by adequate
earnings,” states President Pelley
"The only factor limiting railway
development is the inability of the
railroads to obtain the money need
ed to pay for it Rates should be
regulated in accord with the credit
needs of the railroads, not for the
sake of the railroads alone but ir
interests of the public to which rail
road service is an every day neces
sity. This country’s population is
certain to grow in number as well as
in capacity to produce and to con
sume. Transportation must keep
stejTwtfh that growth and develop
ment or every user of service will be
the loser.’’ - -

to spend several hundred dnllars repairuf damages, in order to give poo the
very best possible service. We have every thing in tip-top shape, and this hot
summery weather is putting the cotton in shape to where it is making very good
samples. If yon want the best results, dry your cotton.
We have the advantage of being uble to run jrov cotton through as it coues, or
we can separate the bur, and hard stained locks. We furnsih bagging and tires
at $1.25 per set, and pay highest market price for seed.
