FREIGHT CHARGES
UPON Pines MAY
NOT BE RAISED

"Had hearing. Believe pineapple
freight increase will be suspended"
Received by the chamber of COM
merce this morning from Washington
the cable above brings good news to
the pineapple packers of Hawaii. 1t
means that the new and higher freight
rate on their product will probably not
go into effect until January; that they
may have a chance to move the pres
ent pack on present rates; that they
may make money instead of losing it
on this years crop.
Coast shippers of canned goods can
move their product before September
] and thus avoid the increased rates,
but lack of bottoms will prevent the
pines from moving so fast" said Ray
mond G. Brown, secretary of the cham
Der of commerce, this morning. Con
tract prices on canned pines are based
on the present cost of getting them to
market. If this is increased before
this years pack is moved it means a
serious loss to the packers"
