RAILROAD BOARD
PROTESTS BOOST
IN FREIGHT RATE
larkin Sees No Justice in Pro.
posaI In Light Of Present
Economic Conditions

Steps were taken Tuesday by the
North Dakota board of railroad COM
missioners to oppose a proposal by
the railroads to increase the rates on
certain fresh vegetables and fruits.
On receipt of notification from the
railroads that the rating on vegetables
would be increased from Glass G to
fifth class in western classification
territory, Ben G. Larkin, president OF
the state commission, entered objec-
tons to the proposal.
Larkin said the change In classified
ton would roughly be a Is per cent
increase for shippers of potatoes. cab
bages, onions, beets. carrots, squash.
melons and cantaloupes.
The protest Of the North Dakota
commission was forwarded to r. G.
Fyfe, chairman Of the western CLASH
fication committee at Chicago, who
served notice Of the proposed increase
II the railroads do not voluntarily de-
sist from changing the rates, the mat
ter will come before the interstate
commerce commission.
IN view of the severe economic de-
preston which Is prevalent in North
Dakota and throughout the entire
United States" Larkin said, I'VE car
see nc reason for increasing the pres
ent rating on these fresh vegetables
and fruits at this time"
A hearing has been set at Chicago
for July 81, at which time the objec-
ton Of the North Dakota commission
will be formally entered. Other states
will appear to voice their sentiments
on the proposed change.
while there are numerous COM
modify rates applying on these par
ticular vegetables and fruits in west
ern classification territory. which are
in the Glass 9 basis or lower" Larkir
said in a letter to Fyfe, there are
also many instances where these same
commodities move on the classified.
ton basis, and the proposed increase
would result In heavy additional rate
burdens to shippers and receivers Of
fresh vegetables and fruit in NORTH
Dakota.
with the exception Of a few point.
In our state having through rates or
some Of these commodities from
southern and southwestern producing
points less than the combination
basis, the rest Of North Dakota Is or
the combination basis, over the Twir
Cities, Willmar. or some other juno
ton point to which through rates arr
named. This means that North Da'
kota receivers Of these commodities
pay the commodity rate to the juno
ton point and the high classification
beyond"
The Class G rates are the thirt
from the lowest rate, while the fifth
class is the fifth from the lowest rate
