OPINION GREETS
RATE DECISION

Omaha daily bee., 1917-03-14

OF the Missouri river to Arizona
points on all items found unreasona-
bly, low at present should not exceed
the rates from the Missouri by more
than Is, Is and IS cents from Chi
cago, Pittsburgh and Atlantic sea-
board territories, respectively, and
should not exceed certain maximum
rates hereafter prescribed"
In detailing the maximum rates an
opinion is given as follows:
"In our judgment the rates on
these less than carload commodities
from Chicago, Pittsburgh and New
York to all territory more than 900
miles west of the Missouri river
should not exceed the rates to the
same points from the Missouri river
by more than 80, 50 and 70 cents
respectively on articles classified as
first class and rs, 40 and S. cents on
articles classified as second, third or
fourth class.
present less than carload COM
modify rates from eastern defined ter
ritories to Pacific ports which are
higher than $3.50 per hundred pounds
are not unreasonably low. Present
less than carload commodity rates
from the Missouri river to Pacific
coast ports which are not higher than
$3.50 per hundred pounds are not un-
reasonably low.
Rates on barley, beans, canned
goods, asphaltum, dried fruits and
wine from Pacific coast ports via rail
and water routes through Galveston
to the Atlantic seaboard should be
revised to accord with the require
ments Of the long and short haul
clause"

WILL STRIKE TIE
RAILROADS HERE?
Trainmen Hold Their Peace
Road Officials Believe Strike
Order Will Be a Failure.
BUCKING ADAMS0N LAW

Telegraph reports that the mem
bers of the big Four" represent
ing the four brotherhoods OF rail-
road trainmen, will call a general
strike Saturday night on eastern
lines and having it apply to all sec
,ions of the country by Wednesday
q, next week, were received with
considerable surprise here by both
railroad officials and employees.
Members of the brotherhoods who
were approached said they knew
nothing OF the plans now being made
by the Big Four" committee.
Railroad officials here assert that
so far as the roads are concerned
everything in connection with dealing
with the men has been left to a com,
mittee and that they will be governed
by the action taken by that COM
,littee. However, they take the posi-
ton that now would be most mop
perfume time for the men to obey a
strike order in the event one 81 ould
20 out from the Big Four" In max
ing this assertion they point to the
TACT that the question OF the legality
OF the provisions Of the Adamson
law is now in the hands of the courts
and that it would be bad policy to,
fiaunt a strike order in the face OF
this court.
II the strike order comes, Union
Pacific officials are of the opinion
that not more than 5 per cent Of the
trainmen would respond. On the Bur-
lington. Northwestern and Milwaukee
il IS asserted that 10 per cent would
probably be the maximum.
Railroad officials, too, take the posi-
ton that a strike order issued at
this time could have no legal stand.
ing and that before one that would
be obeyed would 60 out another vote
10 strike, or not to strike. would have
to be taken.

ticles Of west-bound trans-continental
freight to Pacific coast ports.
Existing rates on wide range OF
commodities from eastern cities to
Pacific coast ports are found unrea-
sonably low and adjustment would be
effected under the proposed plan by
raising through rates and prescribe
ing proportional rates to intermedi-
ate points.
Present through rates on a long
list of other articles, including brass
bronze or copper goods, electrical
goods, certain iron products, pulp
wood, lumber, wheat, rice. tea and
tobacco are found to be reasonable
and adjustment Of rates to interme-
date points would be made by re-
ducing the present rates where they
exceed through rates.
The railroads are given until April
2 to submit proposed changes in the
plan. The case will be argued before
the commission April and 4 and
will then be taken under considera-
ton for final decision
Water Competitors Negligible.
Tentative findings reached after
long and painstaking investigation,
include the following:
Existing water competition is
found to be a negligible factor in
affecting rates by rail between Allan
tic and Pacific coast terminals.
Rates on commodities from east
ern territory to Pacific coast termin-
ais lower than the rates on like traf-
fc to intermediate points are not
justified undsr existing conditions.
Present rates on specified COM
modities from all eastern defined ter
ritories to Pacific coast terminals are
found not unreasonably low or not
| to have been induced by water COM
petition.
1.-THE rates to Arizona, New Mex.
leo, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho
Colorado and Montana, as well as to
California, Oregon and Washington
should be adjusted at this time as fully
as now can be determined, The facts
do not admit OF such finding as |.
sought by the carriers, the coast cite.
and the eastern shippers, namely, thai
present conditions justify lower rates
to the coast cities than to inter
mediate points. Nor do the facts al
together admit of such a finding az
lis sought by the representatives o.
the intermountain states, namely, thai
all OF these rates to Pacific coast cities
are reasonable AMI fully remunerative

not unreasonably low. !
Rates from all eastern defined ter.
ritories to all points west Of the Mis-
souri, river should be so adjusted now

tons in rates to the Pacific coast. the
rates to intermediate points need mo-
be disturbed, except the point tc
which rates may be affected by com
bination on the coast.
| Missouri River Rates.
The suggestion is made to carriers
that carload commodity rates iron
the Missouri river to the intermedi
ate territory west thereof be gradet
with distance, applying rates no
higher than IS, 70, 80 and go per cen
OF the present coast rates to the ter
ritory within 900, $50, 1900 and l,6s
miles from the Missouri river cities
respectively.
