ALLOWS RAILROADS
TO CUT LONG HAUL
RATES TO PACIFIC
Commerce Board Holds Re-
duction Necessary to In
sure Competition With
Water Lines.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 11.-Because OF
competition through the Panama Canal
transcontinental railroads today were per-
mitted by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to charge lower rates from East
ern points to Pacific Coast terminals than
to intermediate points. With few spe-
clfc exceptions the decision permits re-
duction in the long-haul rates.
The decision was in what was known
as the intermountain rate case, and was
regarded as second In Importance only to
the per cent increase case The de-
cIsion was the second big victory for tho
railroads in their appeal to the COM
mission for relief from threatened imam
cial difficulties.
The commission recognized "the revo-
lutionary effects OF the Panama Canal
upon transportation" and declared that
'the shrinkRge of rates via the canal
from New York to San Francisco put the
transoontinental carriers in serious
straits"
The commission points out that in
reaching It's conclusions II recognized
these salient points in the case as pre-
scented by the railroads:
That under existing rates the railroads
could not compete with the water lines to
the Pacific Coast that should the whole
mountain points, be reduced 20 meet the
water rates. the earnings Of the railroads
would be swept away; and that unless
some adjustment could be made, the
great Industries around Chicago and In
the Mississippi Valley would have to lose
their Pacific Coast customers or migrate
70 the Atlantic seahoard,
In this situation the commission de-
clarss IL was necessary to lower the
through rates to the coast to insure
competition without lowering the rates
70 intermountain points ON the same
scale.
The principal railroads involved are the
Northern Pacific. Union Pacific. Atehisou,
Southern Pacific and Western Pacific,
The new rates win become effective
within 30 days after the fillng by the rail-
roads OF tariffs containing them.
The action OF the commission permits
the railroads TO violate the long and short
haul clause OF the fourth section OF the
commerce act,
