Owens and son, How competitive pricing in transportation would help you i In most American businesses, the benefits of greater efficiency can be passed on promptly to the public. In the transportation business, however, this is not always the case. Consider what has happened on the railroads: In the last 30 years the speed of the average freight train has gone up more than 50 per cent; the load has nearly doubled and the hourly output of transporta tion has increased nearly three times. To male possible these and other gains in efficiency, the railroads h»Ve spent, since the end of World War II, nearly $11,000,000,000 —every dollar of which was financed by the railroads themselves. But — as is shown in the report of a special Cabinet Committee appointed by the President — government regulation frequently denies to the public the benefit of tire lower costs of the most economical form of transportation,.so as to protect the traffic and revenues of carriers with higher costs. The result, as the Cabinet Committee says. Is that shippers and, ultimately, the consuming public must pay more for freight trans portation than would otherwise be necessary. What can be done to correct this unhealthy situation?. Tire special Cabinet Committee recommended that railroads and other forms of regulated transportation be given greater freedom to base their prices on their own natural advantages. At the same time, govern ment regulation would continue to prevent charges which are unreasonably high or unreasonably low, or are unduly discriminatory. This would make it possible to pass on the benefits of the most efficient operations to shippers, producers and retailers, and to the consuming public which in the end pays all transportation costs. Bills based on Cabinet Committee recommendations have been introduced in Congress.

NEWSOME Assistant County Agent Gatesville.—As the deadline for j filing Federal Income Tax and Social Security returns approaches, a large number of farmers have visited the county agent’s office for information. In nearly every case a discussion comes up re garding the keeping of records. And in many instances there are ■no records kept or those available are inadequate.
