"Uivcti the necessary facilities, says the Tc]:- that they are discriminated against because ex- port grain rates are so iiittcli lower than the rates for domestic consumption, is no new thing; it has been the subject of argument and repres- entation many tinies before this. But the fact that the live stock people of this country are being urged to raise tiiore pork to assist in the supplying of the United Kingdom during the present crisis presents an opportunity to bring home to those who control the freight rate structure the unfairness of the present situation.
