The "baby clinic" cartoon shows that transportation costs in relation to freight rates have outgrown their "britches" â€" to the point where many items have increased more than 50 per cent over pre-war costs. The same unprecedented increase is true in such important items as rolling stock units as well as in materials and wages. In the latter two categories costs have jumped over 65 per cent and 70 per cent respectively since pre-war days while the price of most freight transportation items has gone up only 21 per cent.
