and Mrs. John McGee with an at-
tendance of 26. Three groups dis-
cussed the' ways in which freight
rates have affected farmers and
what arrangements would lower
transportation costs. The groups de-

had increased the cost of production

stock and produce to market, and
suggested that all duplication of
transportation services be avoided.
