Barlow Traffic Director of the Chica
Association of Commerce He said that
the railroad contracts call for an aver
age Of 80 per cent of the gross receipts
of the express company business han
died. This, he thought, unfair, for, as
he pointed out, whenever the express
companies raised rates they had TO
double the raise TO include the rail-
roads share i'm the rise 1T is always
the shipper who suffers" ne declared.
There should be a contract arrange
ment between the express and railroad
companies based upon tonnage or
space" he continued. 1T is no more
difficult to arrive at a tonnage basis
of settlement from the way bills than
II is to arrive at a percentage share Of
the same bills. Another phase of the
business is the graduate scale. I
