R|GHTSOF RIVERS
 SAME AS CARRIERS
 USING SALT WATER
Manager Bum Makes Plea for Equal Treatment of h. land Waterways Before
 Commission

"Ihe interstate commerce commis- sion can't logically escape the in vincibility of the claims of the Mis-. sissippi and Warrior rivers for the same treatment as common carriers as are accorded railroads" said o. l. Bum, manager of the traffic bureau
 MT. Bum made the closing argu- ment for the inland waterways al the hearing in New Orleans this week on the appeal of the inland water ways to force the rail carriers to is- sue through bills of lading on rout- ings via the rivers and to allow the river carriers a fair proportion of the joint through. rate.
 'One of the contentious of the rail carriers said MT. Bum, "is that, in event of through rail and water rates being declared, the rail carriers shall not receive proportion of the rail and water rate, which is less than the all-rail rate. but that in case of establishment of rail and water rate under the aIl-rail rate. their share be based on the all-rail charge. That means that the rivers would carry the load and the rails not stand their part of the reduced rate.
 "To this we answered that the rail carriers now operate in conjunction with steamship lines from New York to Savannah and Brunswick on a rail and water rate less than the all- rail rate and that their proportion is based on the rail and water rate and not the all-rail rate. We do not see why fresh water transportation should not have the same treatment as salt water transportation.
 "The rail carriers will have their innings at Chicago April Is at the Great Northern hotel. Only the river interests were heard at New Orleans hearing.
 Galveston Opposed
 Galveston was opposed to our pe- tition for the very simple reason that. if it Is granted, lot of business from the middle and far west now going through New Orleans and other gate ways to Galveston for export might be diverted to port Of Mobile. Of course, Galveston Is looking out for the interests of Galveston and for that I cannot blame that city. At tha same time right is right and the Warrior has as much right to be treated as a common carrier as any rail line.
 "It is a big live question with inn portant bearing on the welfare of Birmingham and Alabama and we are going to follow 1t through every stage of the proceedings until the interstate commerce commission passes on it.'
