Not only this, but railroad rate have been built upon so uncom prehensible a structure that it is cheaper to ship sugar by rail from San Francisco to Chicago and then truck it back to Lincoln than to unload that same sugar in Lincoln as it passes through enroute to Chicago. This applies to other Ne braska towns, as well as to other items. Presidents Coolidge, Hoover and Roosevelt alike have recognized the isolation and disadvantages of the Missouri valley and have approved, for it an outlet to the sea. Econo mists agree that this section of the country is being held back greatly in the development of industries because of the high transportation rates. Now the time is rapidly approv ing when the Missouri river will be opened for traffic as far as Omuha, and another year or so should see the river barges plying as far north bs Sioux City. Kansas City onee shipped much grain to the southeast; then Ore gon and Washington grain produc ers, using water transportation thru the Panama canal, took the business away. Last summer, with its new Missouri river barge ser vice, Kansas City flour mills went after the southeastern business again and in five months shipped 3,911 tons of flour to that section of the country. Proponents of the inland water ways, chief among whom in Ne braska is Former Governor Weaver say that transportation on estab lished rivers costs from 2 to 3Vt mills per ton mile, while the rail j rate on class one railroads is 10 mills per ton mile. They say that j Nebraska grain growers who ship ped via Kansas City and the barge line last year saved 7 cents a bush el over all-rail transportation in getting the grain to the larger mil ling centers. Millions of dollars will be saved to Nebraska producers each year, the waterway boosters declare, when the barges run up to Sioux City. In addition they envision in creasing prosperity as lower trans portation rates enable factories to operate as cheaply here as in the sections where water transporta tion is already available. Altho the waterway advocates assure the railroads that they will not be hurt by the cheaper trans portation rates, but will share in the greater transportation which will bring business enough to sat-; isfy both the waterways and the ' land routes, the railroads are fighting the deal to the limit. The railroads are deeply en trenched in Nebraska and they have enlisted many allies in this state. Big business men who find the railroads profitable to them, are inclined to fight the develop ment of the Missouri as a water way. Most of the larger chambers of commerce in the state are dom inated by railroad allies. Many communities which depend on the railroads for a large share of their tax income and many of whose cit izens * are employed by the rail-, roads, are fearful of the water ways. A recent victory for the water ways occured at Omaha where the clique in command of the chamber of commerce had succeeded in hampering river development.

Lincoln which, naturally, has the second largest chamber of com merce in Nebraska, is still to be counted on the side of the railroads, however. The capitol city is some times called a “Burlington town,” and the faction in control of the chamber has always been cool to ward river development. The railroads also have a staunch ally in the Lincoln Journal which, incidentally, gets a large share of the printing jobs of “Burlington Lines West.” The economic prognosticators say that the victory in the water way-railway tussle will go to the medium most fit to do the trans portation job. Eventually, they believe, the two mediums will be co-ordinated to the best interests of the state as a whole, but this will mean that the railroads will have to give some ground. Commentators around the state house see two sides to the recent attack by five privately-owned power companies on Nebraska’s three big hydroelectric projects. They say that hooking up of the three projects might be viewed as an invasion of the state’s rights, and that it most certainly would cause the private companies finan cial loss by reducing electric power rates. On the other hand, the majority of the people probably will not be inclined to shed tears for the priv ate power companies, altho the lat ter cannot be blamed, perhaps, for attempting to head off government competition in a profitable business. A legal authority at the capitol who has been in close contact with Washington in recent weeks, thinks Nebraska’s “little TVA” will stand up under test of the high court. “There have been indications,” he said, “that the supreme court will not let the new deal down in mak ing the decision on the TVA which is now under consideration. It is pretty well established that the people have a right to use their own natural resources for the pub lic benefit.” DANCE K. C. Hall, O’Neill SATURDAY EVENING February 8 at 9:00 p. m.
