The Southern, Alabama Great Southern and Mobile and ohio, on which the new rates under the deci- sion in the Meridian rate case apply say they are no more pleased with the rate muddle issuing out of that order than the shippers.
 But" said local traffic official there remained nothing to do eX- eept put the rates in effect as ordered by the Interstate Commerce eommis- sion and wait on its finding of their utter ineongruity
 Tn fact, we asked for suspension of the rates and, pending suspension, asked for an intelligent adjustment We were turned down cold. The rates were ordered put in effect April D., and there they are
 The Southern Is losing business between points in the o0mile terri- tory from Meridian other railroads touching those points This neces- sarily follows the discrepancy Tn rates We charge under order of the commission and the old rates enarged by competitive railroads not affected by the decision.
 We will lose around ss0,000 year In business between Birming- ham and Tuscaloosa alone
 The Interstate Commerce commis- sion will hear loudly from the af- fected carriers as well as the ship pers according to indications.
 How It Works
 Here are some of the new rates applying to the Southern and auxil- iaries and the old rates still apply Ing on the Louisville and Nashville from Birmingham to Tuscaloosa:
 Rarbed wire-OVer Southern less than car loads, 40 cents A hundred pounds: over Louisville and Nashville, 17h cents.
 Cast iron pipe-over Southern, less than car loads So1a cents; by Louis vile and Nashville, 17h cents.
 Lumber-over Southern car loads 1ls cents; by Louisville and Nash vile, Gia cents; less than car loads, by Southern s01k cents, by Louis ciile and Nashville 24 cents.

 Only Roads Affected
 Chamber of Commerce is preparing brief showing that the new rates are out of proportion to rates in re- mainder of the country.
 Southern and it's auXiiiaries are the only roads affected because they were the only party defendants in the ac- tion brought by city of Meridian to force Alabama commodity rates to level of rates into Alabama from Meridian.

This is status of the Meridian rate case decision in practice today with shippers and railroads affected by if alike objecting to the muddle created
