Interesting Comparison Given By Rail
way on Effect of Neyr Rates
Washington, D. C Just what the
s
Increased freight < rates will mean
to the average consumer in the way
of contributing to the cost of neces
sary articles-of clothing and standard
food products Is shown In some inter
esting illustrations made in a state-1
merit issued by the Southern Railway 1
fNrfteni:
The old rate on shoes from Boston to'
Atlanta was $1.64 per 100 pounds, mak
ing the transportation charge of a pair
of shoes, which, with Its share of the
packing weighs three pounds approxi
mately five rents. The new rate is
$2 18 1 2 p«*/ 100 pounds, making Ihe^j
tr*ns]»ortaHon charge of the same*
pair of shoes approximately 6 2 3
cents. Everyone known that the pair
of shoes which formerly sold for $7 00
Is now welling around $lS.oo.
Shirts were shipped from New York
to New Orleans by freight fur $1 M
per 100 pounds, making the transput
ib
NIW
Cluirgr
a half
2 urr
shirt about two-thirds of ooo cant. Tbs
old $1.60 shirt Is soiling for $1.00 and
up. t
Clothing manufactured In Chicago
could be shipped to Jacksonville for
$1.83 |»er hundred pounds or less than
11 centr for s suit which with Its
share of the packing weighs six
pounds. - The new rate Is $2.38 1*2 per
hundred pounds or about 14 cents on
the six pounds ready-made which for
merly was,offered for $30.00 but now
cannot be taken home for lers than
$60.00. '
Coming to articles of food, the rate
on fresh beet from Chicago to Bir
mingham was 82 cents per hundred
pounds, less than one cent per pound.
The new rate is $1.06 1-2 per hundred
pounds or slightly more than a cent
per pound. Beef that formerly sold
for twenty cents per pound has been
bringing 35 cents.
Sugar was shipped from New Or
leans to Greensboro, N. C, for 55
cents per 100 pounds or Just about
half a cent per |K>und. Th^ new rate
Is 69 cents per hundred pounds, still
less than thr*»e-?ourths of a cent per
IKNind And sugar which formerly
•old for five cents per pound has been
selling above thirty cents per pound.
These illustration* which are of
article* and commodities, taken at
random, may be considered as fairly
representative of the addition to 'he
