VlRGINIAN EXPLAINS
| CAROLINA RATE FIGHT
Ketner Declares Petition Is Revolu'
tionary and Would Delay Case
Before I. C. G. for 10 Years.

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, February fl. E.
Ketner, counsel of the Virginia Corpo-
ration Commission, today characterized
the North Carolina petition IN the Caro-
lima class rate case as revolutionary, IN
that it demands, he says, class revl-
sion not only for Virginia but for most
of the territory east Of the Mississippi
River.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion is to hear the Virginia complaint
against North Carolina intrastate class
rates in Washington tomorrow. Mr..
Ketner contends that If the Carolina
petition, requesting that its complaint
be Joined with the Virginia case, is
granted, the case could not be settled
within the next 10 years.
The Virginia complaint already is FIVE
years old. 1t holds that North Carolina
| interstate rates-that is, rates between
points within Carolina-are in many
| instances less than one-half as great
as rates between Virginia points and
| North Carolina points.
| This condition. 1t is asserted. Is un-
fair and illegal. in that it puts Virginia
shippers at O disadvantage In compe-
tidon With Carolina shiNers.
