Minnesota Men Here

Commissioner Ivan Bowen and
Rate Expert A. l.. Flynn of the
Minnesota Railroad and Warehouse
Commission Joined the battery Of
lawyers and traffic counsel resist
ing the Ignite increase. Commits
sioner Bowen said that the Mime
sofa commission opposed the in
CREASE and that if evidence for pro-
testants was presented in the pres
ent hearing he and Mr.. Flynn
would testify in defense of the
present rates.
After, Mr.. Morrison had complet-
ed his direct testimony, Mr.. Houck
began a croSs-eXamination which
continued all afternoon and will be
resumed in the morning. In re-
Spouse to questions. Mr.. Morrison
said that North Dakota Ignite in
1923 was sold in all parts of Min
nesota except the northwestern
part, and that there was important
movement south Of the Twin Cities.
Mr.. Houck sought to elicit infor-
nation that the bulk of the traffic
was moved to points within 100
miles of the North Dakota line, but
was met with reference to exhibits.
Development of State
In delving into the development
of North Dakota since the Ignite
production began to assume i'm
portant proportions about 1910, Mr..
Morrison admitted that during this
period there were decreases in
grain hauling rates made but said
this fact should have no bearing
on Ignite. 49,,
In answer to cross questions
concerning Montana rates, Mr..
Morrison said that transportation
conditions in Montana in general
demand a higher level of rates than
in North Dakota, but added there
was little difference between wes-
tern North Dakota and eastern
Montana. A dock coal rate scale
known as the Hallowell scale, APP
plying to Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, was, he said, some
what lower than in Montana. He
added that Montana rates were too
low.
Witnesses expected to be called
in succession by the railroads.
counsel said, included Henry Blake
~, freight traffic manager, of the
Northern Pacific; 4. F.. Rice, as
sistant general freight agent Of the
500 lines, and p. g. Beidelman.
assistant general freight agent of
the Great Northern.

Introduce Montana Schedule
Testimony was introduced in be-
half of railroads on the opening
day of the hearing on the proposed
increase in frcights on Ignite coal
in an endeavor to show that the
level of Ignite rates from North
Dakota mines is below the rate
level on Ignite coal in Montana
and Washington and generally less
than other commodities. moving in
North Dakota.
This testimony introduced by j..
G.. Morrison, assistant general
freight agent of the Northern Pa
cific Railway, was met in cross-eX-
animation by Stanley Houck, coun-
sci for the Ignite operators resist
ing the proposed increase in rates,
with questions designed to elicit
information that operating condi-
tons differed in Montana and
North Dakota, that competitive
factors and the general relation of
population to the industry made
the comparison of little effect in
the case.
Mr.. Morrison, who was the sole
witness in the hearing yesterday,
introduced a copy of an order of
the Montana railroad commission
in 1921, he said, rejected the North
Dakota basis of Ignite rates as in
applicable to Montana Ignite be-
cause they were too low, said that
Ignite rates were higher in Wash
ington than North Dakota, and
that other commodity 3 rates in
North Dakota, such as brick, sand,
gravel and grain, were considerab-
~ higher than Ignite rates. 1t is
