STATE OPPOSES
PETITION FOR
RATE INCREASE
State Presents Case in Oppo-
sition to Boost of Intra-N
state Rates.

Bismarck. n. D., Dec. 9.-Contend-
ing that the intra-state freight rates
Of North Dakota arc untustly higher
than those of other states in the west
n northwest. the state today pre-
scented its case in opposition to the
petition of railroads for an increase
in iutra-state freight and passenger
rates sufficient to bring these rates to
the level Of rates established by the
Interstate commerce commission.
The states case rested chiefly on a
showing made by the traffic depart
ment of the state railroad commission
n the contention of William Lemke.
attorney general-elect, that any in
crease should be based on. the North
Dakota maximum freight rate law.
1t developed during the hearing,
when Mr.. Lemke asked thai the rail
roads supply certain information,Sthat
he had not read the transcript in the
first hearing of the a case, held last
August.
Railroad attorneys commended that
to entirely comply with. Mr.. Lemke's
request would only delay the case and
that most OF the Information he de-
sired was included in the transcript
Of the previous hearing. which the
railroad attorneys sent to Mr.. Lemkc
on November 5. Mr.. Lcmke said that
it was received at his Office when he
was busy. that he had not read it and
that he did not know it was in his
office until he got n letter from the
railroad attorneys requesting it's re-
turn.
Information asked for by Mr.. Lemke
included information as to how many
corporations from which the railroads
bought materials were subsidiary COR
porations of the railroads. This infor-
nation, the attorneys said. was in
cludcd in the records of a hearing be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion, which was a part Of the tran
script mi to Mr.. Lemke. The special
assistant attorney general asked for
such information after May 81. 1920,
the information for these months not
being included in the transcript. The
answer of the railroad attorneys was
that such information was only cumu-
1ative. but that they would furnish it
if it did net occasion too great delay.
They complained that the case al
ready had been delayed months.

Northwestern News
Show Volume And COATS,

Before the railroad attorneys closed
their case last evening they presented
documents as to the volume of intra-
state and interstate business and the
difference in rates. They also intro
duced documents showing cost Of ma
%terials. such as steel rails, ties and
coal. In answer to suggestions Of
lowering costs they claimed tina the
contracts on which they are now and
have been purchasing these materials
give them a lower price than the pro.
ducts command in the open market
today.
The contention of the state that the
intra-statc rates are much higher than
in North Dakota was not disputed by
railroad attorneys. Their answer to
this contention was hat Minnesota
iptra-state freight rates always had
been lower than North Dakota's. and
justly SO. because of the more dense
population and larger volume of traf-
fc of Minnesota.
The states contention is that the
intra-statc rates of North Dakota
should be no higher than those Of
Minnesota and that the state is dis
eliminated against in the building of
industries by the disparity in the
rates of the two states.

BANK AT GREENBUSH
IS CLOSED; DEPOSITS
WILL BE MADE GOOD

Greenbush. Mimi, Dec. s.-The
State bank Of Grenbush was closed
yesterday by the state banking board
OF the state Of Minnesota. The condi-
ton Of the bank warranting the clos
ing was occasioned by the inability OF
the bank to collect farmers paper.
Last spring there was a change in
the directorate Of the bank. and the
institution was known to be in good
condition at that time. It was be-
lteved that the bank was progressing
nicely insa business way following the
change. It u stated by those IN au-
thority that the institution will pay
one hundred per cent on the dollar

State Likely To Appeal
From Nuessle's Injunction

Bismarck, N. D.. Dec. s.-An appeal
probably will be taken o o by the
state from the temporary injunction
granted by Judge w. L. Nuessle, of
district court. against enforcement of
certain classes of minimum wage
rules. according to Benton Baker, one
of the states attorneys. The injunc-
ton was granted on the ground that
the order was illegal because the
board was not properly constituted
when it was made.
Three cases involving minimum,
wage rules are on the calendar of the
district court here for trial at this
term on the merits of the minimum
wage rules.
