 PERIOD"

 Storage Properties.
Little Rock.

Iittte AtGh.-
 The Arkansas Railroad Commission issued an order. effective December IS and operative until February 2S, making radical increases in demur- rage charges with the hope of giving relief from the present car shortage.
 No change was made in the 4S-hour free period" during which shippers do not have to pay demurrage charges. For the first day following the free period" the commission fixed a de- murrage charge of $1 for each car; for the second day, $2; third day, S3; fourth day, $5, and for each succeed ing day $5.
 The present rate is $f for each day after the 4S-hour free period"
 Members of the commission said that they believed the increased de murrage charges would discourage the holding of empty and loaded freight cars by shippers. Many shippers, they said would prefer holding freight cars and paying the present $1 rate than to provide more adequate storage properties to care for their products.
 The application of the carriers re- quested that the new demurrage rules be put in force immediately and be continued iii force until May 1, the same period covered by the Interstate Commerce Commissions order or cars being used in interstate traffic. The commission, however, ordered that the rule be imperative after February 28, believing members said. that the shortage of cars will have been re lieved by that date
