Aberdeen and Ashboro railway COM
pany and other lines railroads gener-
ally are severely reprimanded for
their delay in adjusting claims where
there has been palpable overchargc.

finally had filed a formal complaint
with the commission,

The commission expresses the opin-

character should be adjusted and paid
by the carriers within thirty days
and In special cases that no more
than 60 days should be required for
settlement and adds that it will eX-
pect the cordial cooperation of all
