RATE EPROTESTSOF
LAKE STATES HEARD
Shippers Argue Against Increas-
ing of Freight Charges by
Eastern Railroads.

Protests OF shippers in the Lake
States to the proposed per cent in
crease in freight rates on Eastern lines
were voiced ay Attorney Rush Butler In
an argument today before the Interstate
Commerce Commission. Mr.. Butler pro-
tested particularly against the proposed
increase in lake and rail rates, de-
clared that they were high enough at
the present time. He disputed figures
of the railroads designed to show that
lake traffic was unprofitable. declaring
that such a showing was made by book
keeping methods which charged boat
lines with terminal costs not properly
chargeable against them.
Attorney Frank Lyon argued against
allowing any advance in rate to the
coal roads of the Pittsburgh districts
presenting figures to show that these
roads have made exhorbitant profits
and are in no need of additional reve-
nues.
Judge J. II. Henderson, commerce
counsel fIowa, did not discuss the
general per cent advance. He con-
nned his remarks to the proposed ad-
vance in the rates on glucose. gluten
feed corn. oil cake and other products,
and held that whether the general ad-
vance is granted or not. there should
be no advance on these commodities.
Grain by-prOducts now carry a higher
rate than grain products. and this dis
elimination would be aggravated. he
declared. If the rate were advanced.
