His subject was the Revival at

purposes of God skept on to marvel

Unnecessary Cross
HauIS Are Expensive

Elimination of unnecessary or cross
haul Of commodities by the various
railroads of the state is being sought
by Frank J. Miller, chairman of the
public service commission, who has
taken the matter up with the railroads.
When such unnecessary hauls are made
the consumer naturally has to pay the
freight. Instances of such cross hauls
are cited by the Spokane, Portland &
Seattle railroad company in letter re-
ceived by the public service commits
sion today. This letter says:
From our obNervation the principal
instances of this kind are in the trans
portation of flour, canned goods and
beverages--particularly flour from in
terror mills to Portland and from Port
land mills to interior points, canned
goods for consolidation from Seattle
to Astoria and from Astoria to Seattle,
also canned goods from one producing
to consuming center and in the reverse
direction. A similar cross hauling of
beverages, such as sodas, ginger ale,
ETC., is continuously going on.''
If such unnecessary hauls could be
eliminated, it would be of material
benefit in decreasing the car shortage.
