 This" said Mir. vandiver yesterday. was the third argument have made on this subject and I feel greatly en- couraged in regard to the situation. have positive assurance that a good many changes in rates will take effect within a short while. I am daily ex- pecting notice of considerable reduc- tions to Montgomery.
 Tt should be understood that 1t re- auires a great deal of time for railroad companies to provide for any changes of rates great or small. There is a vast amount of detail that their rate departments must compile before get ting the matter in shape to be con sidered. There Is a great amount of work in compiling these figures and presenting them intelligently to the general managers for their action. Then when the changes are agreed to it takes a long time to get them in condition to place them in operation Every tariff has to be abandoned and a new one substituted where there are any considerable changes to be made and when all of this is accomplished 1t
 then has to be submitted to the Inter- state Commerce Commission before be- | ing issued and put into effect by the | railroads.
 T mention these things to show to
 the public why 1t is that these matters move so slowly.
 T do not believe I violate any oon- 1dence when say thatS have been as-
 sured by several prominent railroad officials that Montgomery will secure | substantial reductions in the rates on a great many articles.
 Railroads Show Good Spirit. .~rhe spirit in which the railroad of dcials are meeting the efforts of our Freight Bureau is entirely satisfactory | in fact 1t Is very gratifying and I have no doubt that we will secure reductions on every item where I have been suc- cessful in establishing the fact that relative adjustments are an injustice to Montgomery. In other words, 1 be- lieve that the railroad officials are talk | ing up this matter with the idea of working 1t out in such a manner that
 tion to compete successfully with any
 and all competitive points and trade centers." MT vandiver said that the whole matter had been referred to a special committee composed of the executive officers of all initial railroad lines out of Montgomery. of which c. B. Comp | ton, Traffic Manager of the Louisville
 and Nashville Railroad Company. Is
 chairman. MT. Compton assured MT vandiver in Atlantic City that every
 effort would be made to get the mat | ter arranged by or before the next
