High Freight Rate
On Whisky Is Held
Justified by /. c. C..

Even legitimate whisky ship
ments cause so much trouble and
expense to railroads nowadays that
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion held today that extra rates
for its transportation are justiti
able.
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe and other railroads which
moved 43 carloads of whisky to
California points from Kentucky
during 1923 and 1924 were held to
have been right in collecting more
than first-class rates from the
shippers, A. +. Green and Maurice
Selig.
Every carload of whisky has a
special guard riding it, the decision
said, and extra guards are pro-
vided at all terminal and switching
points.
Most dangerous ages for children
as regards death from automobiles is
between five and nine. says the Ma.
tional Safety Council.
