that is very difficult either to detect or
prevent. Complaint has been made
unoficially to the Interstate Commerce
Commission by number of independent
shippers who are afraid to let their names
be known, that many of the railroads are
paying rebates to the big shippers just
as formerly under the the guise of DAM
age claims, demurrage and similar
charges. 1t is of course matter of in
difference to the big shipper what the
railroad calls the money it pays him just
so he gets it. And when this amount is
charged to delayed shipments shipments
are always delayed) car demurrage and
damage claims, it is very hard to prove
that they were not legitimate charges.
The only difference is that these claims
are settled promptly and quietly with the
big shippers while the little fellows have
to go to law to get satisfaction, and they
get more law than satisfaction then.
