COMING TO SEE MARYLAND.

That the advantages possessed 10y

EXPRESS Rates Lowered
Ry Interstate Commerce Com
mission. Almost Equal 10
Parcel Post Rates.


Sweeping reductions in express rates
on parcels all over the United States
have been ordered by the Interstate
Commerce Commission. The new rates
become effective October 18th, and the
reductions range from about 10 to 60 per
cent, relieving shippers from exorbitant
charges.
The express companies vigorously OPP
posed the rate reductions, first ordered
June 8, 1912. The rates were suspended
pending further investigation. Monday
of this week they were finally ordered to
go into effect. The companies originally
alleged that the new rates would reduce
their revenues 80 per cent. Later they
said the loss would be l5s per cent. De-
spite this opposition, the commission Or
dered a two years trial.
The order was the result of broad in
vestigation of express rates begun over
wear ago. 1t forces direct and close
competition between the express compa-
MES and the Federal parcel post. In
many instances the new express rates
are much lower than the parcel post rate.
Practically all rates on parcels under
SO pounds are radically lowered. On
small packages carried more than 200
miles and less than three miles, the new
rates are nearly all lower than the par
eel post rates.
That express rates shall not be higher
in one direction than another is also or
dered. This eliminates the present prac-
tice of charging more for carrying par
cells in one direction than another, altho'
between the same two cities. Even If
two or more carriers participate in such
service, the commission declares the rates
shall be uniform.
