NO DISCRIMINATORY RATE.

D
The Inland Empire and the

between the Rockies and the
Cascades from the Canadian to

OF the interstate commerce COM
mission to permit transcontin-
enal railroads to reduce rates to
and from Pacific coast terminals
on traffic originating from the
east or consigned east from the
Pacific coast. The decision was
announced at Washington.
The decision is regarded as
the greatest commercial and in
dustrial rail rate victory ever
achieved for the western inter-
mountain territories, according
to Spokane dispa tches. Fol-
lowing are some of the points
which will result from the deci-
sion:
Establishment in general of
rail rates to the western interior
on mile-for-mile basis, instead
of on a district to district basis.
Permanent relief from dis
criminatory freight rates favor
ing the coast on westbound traf-
fic from the east and easthound
traffic from the Pacific coast.
Relief to western wool ship
pers through equalization of in
termediate and terminal rates.
Saving of millions of dollars
which consumers of the interior
would lose through inability of
interior merchants to sell at
prices as low as coast merchants
favored with lower rates.
Extension of territory served
by the interior merchants by en-
abling them to compete with
coast merchants.
The ruling. announced at
Washington, denied the applica-
ton of transcontinental roads to
reduce rates to and from Pacific
coast terminals without making
corresponding reductions.
