Senator Carter indicated a willingness to
accept the STnOOt amendment, but Mr..

effect would be to permit the withdrawal
of the funds from the banks-'the very
thing We have been trying to avoid.

The discussion brought out the fact
that IL is not the purpose to convert the

Of assembling interstate freight in large
cities in question, the big railroads in
the territory north Of the Ohio river and
east Of the Mississippi and the forward
ing agencies Of the east are about TO en-
gage in the final test before the supreme
court of the United States Of the rights
of those shipping agencies.
The contest results from the anti-re bate
legislation. The question 10 be decided is
whether the railroads in refusing to allow
the agencies to ship a carload OF mer-
chandise made up Of parcels from vari-
GUS people at carload rates are uniustly
discriminating against them in favor Of
shippers who own the entire carload ship
ment.
The interstate commerce commission,
upon the complaint OF the Export Ship
ping company Of New York against the
Delaware, Laokawanna & Western rail-
road, held that such was an unjust dis
elimination. The commission, however
was sharply divided on the point.
