LUMBERMEN WILL
FIGHT INCREASE
Continued from Page l..

advance to the consumer would
amount to between 81 and So a thou
sand
The lumbermen are basing their
hopes of winning their case before the
Interstate commerce commission on
the ground that several years ago the
southern railroads advanced their
freight rates 2 and 3 cents a hundred
and the United States supreme court
promptly forced them to put the old
rates into effect
There is little question but that if
the railroads put the new rates in over
the middle AMI northwest states and
can make them stick with the inter-
state commerce commission and the
United States supreme court, the roads
operating in the southern and eastern
states will promptly raise their rates
and there can be but one result-lum-
Der prices will experience an advance
of from 81 to $3.50 a thousand feet
throughout the entire country. There
is only one alternative situation-that
the southern roads will not raise their
rates, but bid against the roads of the
middle and northwest for the lumber
business of that territory and secure
it, for the western mills could not
compete with them, having, as they
would, 20 per cent higher freight
charges to contend with.
The case promises to be bitterly
fought before the interstate commerce
commission by both the lumbermen
and the railroads, as each side feels it
is sort of a last stand. Local lum-
Der dealers, retail and wholesale, are
anXiously watching developments in
the situation.
