HOLD Terminal.
FACILITIES D. K.

mission today held that the rail.
water terminal facilities at north

ports are not shown to be in.
sufficient or inadequate to &C.
commodate the export. import,
coastwise and intercoastal traf-
fic offered for movement through
those ports. On the contrary,
the commission said, existing IA
cilities are shown. on the whole,
to be reasonably adequate to
meet normal traffic needs.
Other findings of the com.
mission in this case, which has
been under investigation for sew,
eral years were:
That the record is insufficient
to establish that the charges on
the traffic under consideration
are so low as to impose a our.
den upon other traffic.
That the record does not war
rant the prescription of a tariff
rule requiring the accessorial or
terminal charges to be stated
separately from the line,haul
rates on export, import, coast
wise and intercoastal traffic TO
and from Atlantic and Gulf
ports.
That every effort should be
made by the railroads when leas
ing their warehouses to shippers
to obtain terms no less favor
able than would be obtained,
under similar restrictions and con,
ditions of use. were the ware.
house owned independently Of
the railroad.
That the practice of according
