Freight Rate Reduction..

Unofficial reports circulated in rail-
road circles to the effect that the Inter-
state Commerce Commission had deter
mined on a reduction of 10 per cent. in
class and commodity freight rates. ef-
fective not later than July /. and that
the committee of rail executives organ
lied as a result of the White House
conference Is negotiating with the COM
mission looking to notifications of its
decisions. under which the reductions
would be restricted to basic commodities.
leaving the class and less than carload
rates unchanged. Some railroad officials
are confident that the commission will
take into full consideration the 16 to 20
per cent. reductions effected in January
on agricultural products and that the
impending reductions will not average
higher than per cent. Railroad men
also incline to the view that reductions
ordered will not be effective until July
1 or August 1, by which time it is ex-
pected that the Railroad Labor Board
will have cleaned up the carriers appli-
cations for wage cuts.
