DIRECTORS HOLD MEETING

The directors of the Missouri Valley Car
Service association are meeting in Kansas
City to consider the many protests made
by all branches OF the wholesale traders
change made Januar l, in rule 4, section l,
| in the associations rule book. be recon
sidered. Under the rule previous to the
first of the year consignees were allowed
forty-eight hours free time in which to
notify the railroads of the disposition to
be made of car load lots OF freight receiv-
ed he-e and an additional forty-eight
hours after the car had been placed
where ordered in which to unload it.
After that time had expired if the car
had not been unloaGed a charge of 81 per
day per car was made until the con-
signee was ready to turn the car over to
the railroad company Under the revised
rule the consignee is required to file an
order for the disposition of the car with
the agent of the road before the car ar
rives and is not allowed the former first
forty-eight hours. In the absence of the
order for the disposition of the cad previ-
Gus to its arrival the car is considered
placed at the first a. m. after its arrival
and in case it is ordered changed to an
other road for switch delivery the first
agent handling it will assess car service
charges from the first a. m. until order
ed switched without allowance for any
free time. After the car has been finally
placed where ordered the former forty
eight hours for unloading will be al
lowed.
The trade accepted the ruling in good
faith and gave it a thorough trial to see
il it could be maintained, but they have
found it utterly impracticable and now
ask that the change be modified. There
are cases, they say, where the consignee
can not give advance notice of disposition
desired and in such cases they ask the
association to leave the matter to the
discretion of the consignees who will do
al. in their power TO facilitate the hudling
of freight and make the unloading as
speedy as possible.
One of the instances given where the
new ruling would be impracticable is this:
a car might be consigned to shippers or
der In that case the consignee must
take the shippers draft or have his per-
mission to examine the ear and after the
contents had been inspected the con-
signee might not accept the car. 1t
would therefore be an injustice to ask
that the car be previously ordered to ITS
destination without giving the consiSnee
free time in which to make an inspection.
The shippers and consignees all agree
on the expediency of the new ruling
where it can be carried out without work
ing an injustice but they are not willing
To abide bv it where it is not practicable.
