Of RATES
WILL HURT NORTHWEST
Meeting at Portland Asks
State Commissions to Fight
Against 1t

Portland, Or, April 2S.-Practically
every industry in the Pacific north
west particularly the lumber industry,
will suffer severely if the proposed
general 10 per cent increase in freight
rates is allowed by the interstate
commerce commission.
This, it is evident, is the consensus
of opinion of prominent business men
and shippers and members of the public
service commissions of Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho, who met here. The
following resolution, introduced by A.
c. Dixon, of Eugene, was passed after
some discussion:
"Resolvcd, that the shippers present
at this place and date, appearing be-
fore the commissions of Oregon, Wash
ingtOn and Idaho with regard to the
possible percentage advance in trans
portation rates, request the federal
commission to appoint a committee to
consist of one member from each COM
mission, or such other member as they
may designate, to appear before the in
terstate commerce commission for the
purpose of protecting the industries of
the northwest and the states affected
particularly, from any unjustifiable
advance in freight rates and the ship
pers further pledge support of the COM
mission and agree to cooperate with
then"
The committee will be announced at
a later date by the state commissions,
which also at that time will announce
arrangements for representation at the
conference of state public service com
missions called for Denver, May second
to consider protests against the pro-
posed increase in rates.
Mr.. Dixon, representing the lumber
men at the conference here, declared
that some mills would be unable to sur
vive a general 10 per cent rise in
freight rates. lie declared that many
contracts for the delivery of lumber to
eastern points, not fulfilled because of
the failure of the railroads to deliver
cars, would have to be carried out al
though the mills based their price on
the old rates. He also declared that
the proposed increase would make IT
difficult for Pacific coast lumbermen
to compete with southern mills in the
Mississippi valley and middle west be
cause the proposed Increase would give
southern mills handicap of $1.l3 a
thousand feet. He said it would be
impossible for the mills to absorb this
$1.13 under any circumstances.
Representatives of other industries
declared that they will be similarly af-
! fected.

Eastern Ford Man. Makes
Huge Deal for Maxwell Cars

Contracting for $4,000 worth of
Maxwell pleasure cars and trucks and
bringing to a close with T. j. Toner, di-
rector of sales for the Maxwell Motor
Sales Corporation. the automobile in
dustry s record distributing transaction
for the size of the territory involved,
Charles f. Fay. formerly manager Of
the Ford assembling and distributing
plant in Cambridge, Mass, and one of
the widely known motor ear men in
New England, has Just taken over for
a term of years the distribution Of
Maxwells in eastern Massachusetts,
and Rhode Island, the Maxwell com
pany has made known.
Taking the lead of the field in New
England automobiledom with this trans
action, Mrs Fay asserts that his change
was made because of the certainty of
n further expanding popularity among
buyers for a completely equipped,
light and economical car of the Max
well type. In the investment of SlO,-
600 900 on this conviction, his step, it
is held will have influence among buy
ers, throughout the whole country.
Mr.. Fay, who only recently gave up
his Cambridge assembling and distri-
buting plant managership to join fore
es with the Maxwell has been identi-
fled with motor cars in New England
for years and his business acquaintance
throughout his field, as it applies both
to the whoesaling and retailing OF
cars, is unsurpassed. In contracting for
the sale in his territory of so many
Maxwells he becomes the ranking auto
mobile man in New England, the size
of his investment and the volume OF
cars he is to handle surprising any
thing east of New York city.
The new contract calls for the dis
tribution by Mr.. Fay of Maxwells in
the territory east of Worcester county
in Massachusetts and. the whole of
Rhode Island, and it brings into affil-
iation with the third largest producing
factories marketing organization OF
unusual strength, initiative and re-
source
"'Mr. Fay and his organization have
built up in New England an acquaint-
ance and business standing second to
none in the United States, says Wal
ter f, Flanders, president of the Max
well. Every big distributor of motor
ears in this country either knows Mr.
Fay personally or knows of the success
he attained in the managership of his
assembling and distributing branch. In
this work he stood near the top of the
list in his field
He brings to the Maxwell an ag-
gressiveness and business ability
coupled with an initiative that are val
Iuable in any line, The firm will be
more than successful with the Maxwell
| in New England, because its success
there will reflect with benefit to every
other Maxwell distributor Dor dealer
anywhere
''Mr. Fay will be successful within
his own organization because he real
ICES that the buying public IS with
each passing month swinging more aud
more to the popular priced and eom-
Iplete car. He sees bigger and bigger
market for the light ear of complete
equipment and standardized parts, and
( in this he is in harmony with Max
we'll His Investment of $l0,000,000 is
