The new express rates which went
into effect January 2nd in South Dakota
will bring material increase all along
the line. While an advance is more
generally throughout the country, it will
be felt more in this state for the reasons
that South Dakota, for long time, has
been operating under express rates es-
tablished by the South Dakota railroad
commission, which were far lower than
the rates elsewhere in the country. OF
course, these rates applied only to inter
state business and hence it will be in
that line of express shipments that the
advance will be particularly felt. The
advances on interstate rates will range
from 5 to 10 per cent above the existing
rates.
