MALT FREIGHT RATE
In WEST INCREASED

Washington, Aug. 5.-Railways IN
the northwest and middle west a
been permitted by the Interstate Com
merce commission to advance their
freight rates on malt from Minneap-
oils, MINI, to Kansas City, Mo-, and
between other similarly situated points,
an average OF 3 cents per 100 pounds.
The increase originally was suspend
ed, but on investigation the commits
sion found hat the malt rate was
lower h the rate on barley and that
the increase was mad to place barley
and malt on a parity. The order Of
suspension has been vacated.
Glass and commodities tariffs of mid
die western railways, which would ma
terially increase rates on shipments
from Alton, ILL.,, and other points, to
Henderson and Greensboro, KY, and
beyond were suspended today by the
Interstate Commerce commission unit

proposed advances is in progress.
