HEARING HELD
ON FREIGHT RATES

An order has been issued by the
public service commission, holding
open for continued investigation the
matter of unreasonableness and dis
elimination in freight rates to points
on short line railroads connecting with
the Southern Pacific.
Following the filing OF complaint
by the Independent Cantaloupe
Growers Of Fallon against the Ameri-
can Railway Express company, the
commission on its own initiation
started all investigation into rates
charged for service over the Southern
Pacific, the Nevada, Northern. Vir-
ginia & Truckee and Tonopah &
Goldfield railroads. In Commissioner
Shaughnessy's opinion it is stated that
the hearing developed the fact that
rates to branch line points are unreas-
onably high. AS examples are cited
the rate of II cents per hundred
weight on certain products from Fal-
lon to Yerington, distance by rail of
73.9 miles, which is contrasted with
the 66 1-2-cent rate to Carson City, a
distance Of 81 miles, and much more
reasonable rate than either from Fal-
lon to more distant point on the
Southern Pacific main line.
The commission found that fourth
class freight rates from Fallon to Ton
opah and Goldfield on less than car
load lots are higher than parcel post
rates. The same is true OF the rates
from Reno to the mining towns
named The fourth-class freight rate
on less than carload lots from Reno
to Tonopah is $l875. The parcel post
rate is $l0S per hundred weight AS
result it is said that 90 per cent. of
the goods shipped from the largest
wholesale grocery house in Reno to
Tonopah go by parcel post

CATTLE MARKET
WILL IMPROVE

All Treloff who probably knows the
cattle game as we'll as any man i'll the
state, as he made himself comfortable
buying and selling. spent the day in
Carson, says the News.
In speaking of the. cattle situation.
he is of the opinion that cattle will
come back to their own He says that
while there is slump i'll the market
people will have to eat and that cat
te as well as everything else i'll the
market must come to level. At the
present time. according to his view.
the cattle market is simply going
through the change that has been not
ed in all lines of business.
He cited the fact that farmers and
cattle men made money at far low
er price than is quoted today and
that hay is coming back to level
where it will pay to feed for the mar
ket.
He believes that the sheep market
will also adjust itself and that the
conditions of range and pasture war
rant holding on to his interest. lie
regards the situation in Nevada as far
better than in many sections, and
while he does not look for any war
time prices. he is con- in'cd that tn,
market is gradually coming back To
normal.
While he is out OF the business dur
ing this readjustment period. he prom
ises to get back into the game, which
is one of the best indications that Al
can see profits ahead. IT was always
business proposition with him and
he keeps just few steps ahead OF the
situations and markets.
