THE NEBRASKA
SCENE
(Continued from page 1.)
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. Om
aha is a major railroad center, but

when the fight was brought out
into the open the majority of the
business men there decided rivei
navigation was a “best bet. ’ Of
ficers and directors of the chamber
were forced by the rank-and-file
membership to declare for river de
velopment and the lowest possible
joint river-and-rail rates.
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.”
