BALTIMORE VICTORY
SEEN IN RATE FIGHT
Decision q I. G. G. on Iron and

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, November 9.--Local
shippers have won another victory
through decision by the Interstate
Commerce Commission. according to
Charles r. Seal, director of the trafiic
and transportation bureau of the As
ISOLATION of Commerce.
The commission denied the petition
OF other North Atlantic port cities to
reconsider its ruling that the distance
scale of rates shall hold for carload
lots of iron and steel articles between
points in Official classification territory.
The ruling was handed down early in
1929.
These cities desire the continuance
of. the former differential rates, and
were supported by some of the rail-
roads serving New York and Boston
and by the Philadelphia Chamber of
Commerce. The distance scale in
creases Baltimores rate advantage as
much as 100 per cent In some instances.
For example the present difference
between the rates from Pittsburgh Is
3 cents, and the difference under the
commissions distance scale would be
6 cents. The commissions order fur
ther provides that its original order as
modified to become effective December
20. 1929, shall remain in full force and
effect.
A petition filed on behalf of the port
OF New York authority sought to have
the commission reopen the proceedings
for the purpose Of giving special con-
sideration to the rates to be applied Ia
trafic for movement in intercoastal
trade The commissions denial of this
petition, along with others, would seem
to remove doubt that may have existed
heretofore as to its intention that the
prescribed distance scale should apply
to this traffic. There is a large move
ment of intercoastal iron and stee
trafic through the port of Baltimore
proceedings will be of material aid IL
the port in further building up thi,
tonnage, Mr.. Seal said.

The problem Is not whether man can

If he can and will June Moon" has a
bright. future: It is made up almost
sayings. They are worthwhile. But
diet of dialogue alone, with a plot
that is as inevitable as death itself
and a scarcity of action that amounts
almost to starvation is putting a rather
heavy burden on the dialogue.
Ring Lardner's, of course, can stand
1t as well as anybody's. In June Moon"
he is at his best with characters that
have stepped from the now faded
pages of You Know Me. AL" But
instead of the base ball diamond, they
transfer their activities in June Moon"
to New York Tin Pan alley, and instead
of hero who knocks home runs, we
have one who puts over song hits. The
story is peculiarly Lardneresque in its
use of his Enthusiastically refreshing
naivete against background of world

gentle and not too uproarious satire
on the complicated business of writing

Set against background of bro
