1T WILL Intervene.
Kansas Utilities Commission Object to
Freight Rate Raise.

The public utilities commission an
nounced today that it would intervene
before the interstate commerce COM
mission in the application of Arizona
millers for an increase in freight rates
on Kansas flour to Arizona points.
Judge A. E. Helm, as attorney for the
state commission, will at once prepare
petition asking for the protection of
Kansas millerS against the increased
rates.
Under the present freight schedules,
Kansas millers are able to ship -four
to Arizona and compete with the mills
in that state. Arizona millers are eX
tenslve users of Kansas wheat in the
manufacture of flour. So, after view
ing the Kansas-Arizona freight rates,
they devised a clever little scheme.
They went before the interstate COM
merce commission with a petition ask
ing that the freight rates on Kansas
wheat be left as at present but request
ed an increase of II cents ON flour To
put this proposed rate in effect meant
the right to compete for the Arizona
business and today a delegation of mil
lers appeared before the utilities COM
mission asking them to aid in the fight
to protect their interests.
After hearing their story, members
OF the state commission were convinc-
ed that the proposed change in rates
would prove an unjust discrimination
against the Kansas millers and at the
same time allow the Arizona millers to
buy Kansas wheat under the old freight
tariffs. The state will now take a hand
in the fight and will aid the millers
OF Kansas in their fight to keep in
force the present rates both on flour
and wheat.
