they take away from this city the adj
vantage of its seaboard position in
competing with the Middle West for
Pacific Coast trode.
The hearing is expected to develop
controversy between representatives
of the railroads and the coastwise line,
on control of water rates by the Inter
state Commerce Commission or the
Shipping Board. In tho recent weak
ness of the intercoastal conference,
with keen competition for cargoes,
rates have been slashed far below the
rail tariffs. According to the railroad
officials this has "cut the heart out of
the transcontinental business The
rail lines are unable to take speedy
action to meet reductions by water. but
must apply to the commission for au-
thority to disregard the "long and
short haul" clause of the Interstate
Commerce act. which forbids the charg
ing of greater amount for short
than long haul. According to the
railroads they would like to make rates
cifc Coast to attract business. but that
corresponding tariffs cannot be APP
piled to shipments to the interior with
out bankruptcy.
The opinion of many rail men is that
the problem of water competition should
be met in one Of two ways-by having
the coastwise rates fixed at definite
figure under the rail charges by the
commission or Shipping Board. or by
giving the reads blanket power TO make
rates at fixed figure above water
charges at any time.
The position of New York CONNER
cia organizations is that the proposed
rcadjustments Of transcontlnental
rates would give Chicago and other
interior cities an advantage over this
city on shipments to the coast.
