That the recent injunction granted by the United States District Court against the enforcement of the Rail- road Commission freight rates, so far is only the beginning of litigation with the Frisco over the rates, may be implied from the plans of the com mission
 May 10 the commission will put into effect Tariff No. 5. The new tariff replaces No. 3, against the en- torcement of which the injunction was granted. It is slightly higher than the old tariff, but 25 per cent lower than the tariff now in force on the Frisco. The tariff will be enforc- ed against the Frisco, and it is be- lieved the road will bring another suit against it's enforcement.
 The commission has announced it will fight the increased rates in ef- feet on the Frisco as long as they are above what the commission believes just.
 "The rates now in force on the frlsco are detrimental to the business Of the state,' said J. Sam Roland. chairman of the commission. "In many cases the rates have been doubled and some of the small fer shippers are suffering heavily. A tie shipper in the northern part of the state wrote us that the new rates in force on the Frisco would force him out of business"
