Criticizes Railroad
Advertizing Campaign

Farmers and small businossmen,
ong concerned about railroad fr.

railuoads,: the biggest lobby in
Washington, has for months been
onducting a huge adventising campaign, to convince the public that
government regulation of railroad
and a long list of other magazines.

A full-page ad in LIFE alene
costs $20,350. When the railroads
spend that kind of monéy to advertise, not to win more passengers
or more freight, but to win political adavntage, the public has a
right and a duty to be suspicious.

The railroads are trying to promote the so-called ~Weeks Report~~.

It was the report issued last year
by a government ~Advisory Com.
mittee on Transport Policy.~ Secretary of Commerce Sinclair Week
a former Pullman Company direct
or, was chairman of that commit- |

tee. The main point of ~these railroad-inspired tecommendations is

|Dr. Hil! yroved himself t> be an

ale speaker and -hologian. His
subject was, ~~Five-fold Jesus~. He
discussed Jesus as ~ih2 working
man, the social workers the patriot,
the suffer:ng servani, and the joybringer.

Amonz those introduced as members-of the Wilberforce Choir, was
Miss Glo ix Marsh of Flint. She

is the diuvrhter of Mr. and Mrs.

Cooper Marsh of,712 Pat.erson St.

The Weeks Report, and the bill

Weeks Report into effect, would
allow railroads to lower

truckers were driven out, we can
