ASK LOWER FREIGHT RATES
Representatives OF Circuses and Car
nivaIs Go Before p. u. c.

Representatives OF CtrcuseS and Car
nivals Go Before p. U. c.
Representatives of circuses and
street carnivals today appealed to the
public utilities commission to help
them in a fight for lower freight
rates. They asked the commission
for class rates and fixing of uniform
regulations affecting all roads. The
action was directed mainly against
the Rock Island and Katy lines.
Witnesses for the railroads freely
admitted that the circus and carnival
business was not the most desirable.
They asserted that individual con-
tracts regarding the hauling of vari-
Gus shows was the safest method OF
protection.
Most of the complaint was lodged
by the Brumadge shows which oper-
ate some seventy-six shows and con-
cessions. Their attorney minated to
the commission that competitive in
terests-particularly the motion pic
ture producers-were interested in
keeping circus and carnival freight
rates high.
The application for a class rate Is
the second move of this character IN
the last couple of years. The case was
taken under advisement.
