/ Eernardino will be 21 cents. Such
traffic is considered interstate matter
and can be governed and controlled
Ly the interstate commerce commis-
sion, according to the late decision
of the supreme court of the United
States.
"Now, Mr.. Barnwell and Mr.. Luce
are asking that the representatives
of the shippers from all OF the in
terror points who were active in the
matter of bringing about the rulings
Of the interstate commission and the
decision of the supreme court of the
United States, to meet in Chicago on
the sixth of October and thoroughly
go over the whole matter with view
tc agreeing on some plan where it is
fair tc the shippers and to the rail
roads. They also state that on all
interstate freight, whether moving by
water and rail or all rail, the inter-
state commission is the sole rate MAX
ing power and that they will be sat
isfied with whatever local rate the
commission decides is right and just
for the shippers and for the carriers,
between coast points and intermediate
POINTS.
eve must all recognize that the
carriers of this nation are an import
ant factor in its prosperity and up
building, but they are not the whole
thing. The producers must be taken
into consideration in order to reduce
the high cost of living. For the last
three years the orange business Of
Southern California has been in the
red ink, owing to frosts and other
conditions. / personally feel that if
the railroads can make a rate of so
cents from Chicago to the coast ter
minals in order to meet water COM
petition on westbound heavy goods,
it would be no more than fair for
them to make rate Of IS cents per
100 pounds to Chicago on eastbound
fruits such as oranges and deciduous
green fruits. The present condition
of he citr-x- industry of Southern
California needs and must have very
careful management and it is just as
much to the interest of the railroads
to lend a helping hand in order to
again place the business on strong
financial basis. The matter which /
personally object to is that the car
riers be allowed to charge any back
haul on any heavy goods originating
in the western zone or such goods rs
are included in the 130 commodities
for which they are going to ask the
commission for relief, such commodi-
ties as nails, steel, iron, coal, ETC.,
originating in Colorado or any other
intermountain section. I feel that
where the rate from any intermoun-
tain section to tidewater in New York
with the steamer rate included more
than equals the all-rail rate to Pa
cific coast points, it would be unjust
and unfair for the carriers to expect
the interior shippers to agree to pay
any back haul, it matters not how
small it might be. A also fail to un-
derstand how they can figure water
competition on any goods originating
where the rate to tidewater in New
York and the steamer rate to Will
mington more than equals the all
rail rate, say from Colorado common
points to coast terminals or Califor-
MIA intermediate points. Yours re-
spectfully,

Back Freight Haul Again
Involves Local Merchants

Months ago the Interstate Commerce
Commission issued an order forbiddine
hack haul charges on both class and
commodity shipments. The courts sus-
tanned this order, but the commission
has reopened the case for further hear
ing.
Local shippers are much interested
in this subject and the following let
ter to the San Bernardino Sun will
be read by them with interest:
"To the Editor of the Sun: | feel
that the shippers of the interior coun-
ties freight bureau should be advised
of the proposition that the transcon-
tinental railroads will submit to the
Interstate Commerce Commission at
| Chicago on the sixth of October next.
"On last Saturday Mr.. Barnwell of
the Santa Fe and Mr.. Luce of the
Southern Pacific drove out to my
ranch and we went over the whole
question of freight rates very care
fully, and | wish to state to the ship
Irers of our organization that this is
the first time in the history of my
business career and my connection
with freight matters for the last
twenty or more years, trying to bet
ter our condition and rid ourselves
of the obnoxious back haul, that the
railroads through their representa-
tives have ever shown any disposition
to take the shippers into their con-
fidence. They now have this propo-
sition to submit to the interior ship
pers:
"On all class goods they will deliver
goods moving on class rates to all in
termediate points on the main lines
at the same rate as they do to the
coast terminals, whether they origi-
nate in the western zone or in the
eastern zones.
"They also are going to ask the
Interstate Commerce Commission to
allow them to make rate of so
cents per 100 pounds from Chicago to
the coast points in order to meet the
Ascent rate which is now bein. aade.
by the A. H. S. S. Co. through the
canal. This rate of cents applies
from Pittsburg to Wilmington, Cal
They are also intending to ask the
commission to allow them to make
this 5O-cent rate upon about 130 COM
modities, comprising nails, iron pipe,
sheets, coal and all such heavy goods
as IAN readily move by wather
through the canal to Wilmington or
to other Pacific coast points. I wish
to state to the shippers of our or
ganization that the railroads have so
arranged their tariffs that practical
ly all of the heavy goods which yield
the greatest revenue are shipped un-
der commodity rates. The class rates
only include the lighter class of goods
which cannot readily move by water
"On the 130 commodities which can
readily move by water through the
canal they will ask the commission to
allow them to establish a 5O-cent rate
from Chicago. They will also ask the
commission to allow them to charge
6 back haul from tidewater at Will
mington to the interior points, such
hack haul to be established by the
commission, as all interstate freight,
whether moving totally by rail or by
rail and steamer to Pacific coast
points is governor by the interstate
commission. In other words, car
of pipe moving from Pittsburg, where
the rate is 16 cents f. o. b. New York,
the steamer rate from New York to
Wilmington will be 80 cents and the
railroad rate from iWlmin pton tn San
