The brief calls to the attention of
the board the Importance of keeping
in sight the fact that the business of
the pipe line company consists of
three separate and distinct opera

which is its sole source of revenue
from the producer; second, its ac-
Icommodation line from Sunburst to
Coutts, Alberta, and third, its free
storage plant at Sunburst.
The refining company contends
that these thre branches should be
separated and each be required 60
