SOLDIERS FURLOUGHED

the market recently arrived III the rail
road yards at Atlanta. Ga. Despite
the offer of fancy prices for labor,
through the Georgia food administra-
ton, men could not be found TO do the

quantity OF foodstuffs would so de-
teriorate during the night as to be
practically a total loss. DR., Soule' s

ALEXANDER FORWARD
Wins RATING FIGHT
Shows That Discrimination is III Favor
Of the Large Manufacturer and De-
structive TO Industrial Activities.

Alexander Forward. of the state
corporation commission, has Just re-
turned from New York where he APP
peared before qthe examiner Of the
interstate commerce commission, and,
after a long and tedious fight sue
ceeded in obtaining a change in the
rules of procedure in order that the
question relating to rate classification
on carload and less than carload
shipments might be heard fully on It's
merits.
Mr. Forward urged that the CLASH
ficatlon committee be cited 10 explain
the reasons for its action in increasing
the spread generally between car! load
and less than carload ratings He
further insisted that The mem 0Srs Of
the committee present themselves for
cross examination on the stand before
the interstate commerce commission.
His motion is given in full below:
Motion made before examiner of
the interstate commerce commission
at 244 Madison avenue, New York,
n Y, August 6. 1918, in consolidated
classification hearing. by Alexander
Forward OF the Virginia state corpo-
ration commission:
In view OF the fact that the CLASH
fication committee has quite evidently
creasing The spread between carload
and less than carload rating / re-
spectfully request that the rules of
this hearing be amended 10 the extent
Of permitting discussion Of this general
subject Unless this is done it viii be
impossl BILE to deal with subject in
comparison with which all details OF
the proposed consolidated classified
ton are of mere minor Importance
1t cannot even be handled by a
brief under the rules, since IT is pro-
vided that briefs must be based upon
the facts In the record. and under the
ruling of the examiner we cannot get
this general subject in the record The
examiner has kindly suggested bring
ing up a specific item but such pro-
cedure will be unavailing. Members
of the classification committee, with a
quite natural pride of authorship, re-
gard each protest against any feature
| of their work as a personal affront;, in
some instances their attitude toward
witnesses is unreasonaby hostile: IN
some cases they are only restrained by
the examiner from interfering with a
witnesses method of presenting his
case and they combat discussion OF
specific items by comparing them with
other items in a plausible but trrele-
want manner. Under the circumstances
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1918-08-09

consideration OF such gravity and i'm
portance as the general increase in the
difference between carload and less
than carload rating cannot be ac-
corded the dignity 1t demands by
speaking to a specific item. Besides,
the classification committee has acted,
and upon il and not upon the people
should be the burden of explanation
and discussion.
The tendency manifested in recent
years to increase the spread between
carload and less than carload ratings
is fraught with the utmost danger to
ordinary business interests and to the
ultimate economic safety OF the nation
In Enthusiastically thousands--of
instances, In the proposed consolidated
classihcation, the spread between car
load and less than carload has been
Widened, while in comparatively few
instances IL has been lessened I am
not aware of reasons for a diffeffrence
between carload and less than car
load ratings, aside from the additional
! expense TO the carriers of warehous-
ing. loading and billing, and the
spread IS already evidently far beyond
the point necessary to care for these
items. IL there are any other cost
items We should be informed what
! they are. | do not care whether the
less than carload rating is lowered
or the carload increased, If we can
only get them closer together instead
of further apart.
Certainly, 1t is wrong in principle
TO build up artificial jobbing interests
by the classification method. no matter
how essential it may be to have job
bers under natural conditions. l SUBJ
nit that If 1t is right to build up big
manufacturers and big iobbers at the
expense of small manufacturers. small
johoers, retailers and consumers. If If
Is right to Cypress the weak to build
up the strong, then we are fighting for
the wrong thing in France today.
I respectfully ask that the inter-
state commerce commission request
the classification committee TO submit
in writing reasons for its action in
increasing the spread generally be-
tween carload and less than car-lcad
ratings and have them put into the
record. and that the members OF the
committee be placed on the stand and
cross examined in regard thereto
