every rate and every character of ticket

the subject Of vigorous attack and of
careful investigation, scrutiny and finding
in the Bitter case. But a few of the
rates were scrutiniZed in the report there
on. and these not because they We're eX-
cessive. but because they seemed in some
particulars to be out of lin. with the bu X
of other rates. These discrepancies were
pointed out and ordered rernedied by this

There has been no advance In rates of
