A letter from President Perkins of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy argues for cautious freight rate reductions to move surplus corn, suggesting a gradual test of lower tariffs to avoid locking in low rates. He notes railroad managers fear popular clamor if rates rise again and outlines a strategy to balance market needs with property protections.
