WESTERN ROADS GAIN
POINT In RATE CASE
Interstate Commerce Commission viii
Permit Carriers to Adjust Tariff
Now on File.

Permission was granted by the Inter
state Commerce Commission yesterday y
to Western carriers to SO adjust their
tariffs on file with the commission that
they will be in position to increase GER
tain freight rates on September 30 and
allow other proposed increases to be fur
ther considered by the commission.
The action of the commission grows
out of the recent decision of the COM
mission in allowing certain inceases in
the so-called Western advanced rate
Ease. and denying others. The decision
of the commission required the carriers
to cancel the increases that were de-
MED. and permitted the increases al
lowed TO 80 into effect on September 90.
The permission granted yesterday y
leaves the carriers in position TO apply
for rehearinG on the increases denied
up until December 81. 1t is understood
that the carriers will file a petition for
rehearing at an early date. 1t is eX-
planned at the commission that had not
the action of yesterday been taken, il
would have necessftated the carriers 60
inc to the expense and trouble of filing
new tariffs and beginning a new case
before the commission to secure a re-
hearing and this would have taken con-
siderable time.

TO straighten out the confusion which
has arisen with regard to the manner in
which American importers may obtain

fective.
The charge has been made repeatedly
to officials of the State Department that
certain importers are being permitted to
get such goods. now lying on the docks
in Rotterdam, while other importers have
been unable to do so. The State Depart
ment has endeavored to get from the
British government a definite statement
as to the proper procedure for importers
in these cases.
1t is said by some importers that in
terests having legal representatives. in
London are being favored by British
authorities, while importers without such
representation are unable to make
progress.
The State Department is endeavoring
to have the British government agree
to an arrangement whereby American
importers may file their applications for
the release of goods with the British
Embassy here. The British have not
