Glow went to Omaha and was

Pacific officials. He there met with
General Supt. Thurston, discussed
the whole situation with him and as
a result an adjustment was reached
that took the whole matter out OF
the courts and gave the people re-
duced rates. He believes the same
thing could have been done If the
commission had gone to San Fran

he says the commission were afraid
of the charge that they were sure
would be made that they were
merely on junketing tour, and sc
did not go. The commission If
