took up the cause Of Montana
refiners at the instigation OF the
Rocky Mountain OH & Gas as
ISOLATION. as the result OF which
there has been a reduction OF
apprenticeship 30 per cent in.
the cost OF transportation Of gaso-
line into and in this state.
The 1927 legislature made an
exhaustive investigation into
gasoline prices, finding that the
chief factor was excessive rail-
road rates. The state railroad
commission was called upon to
investigate rates, with the re-
suit that a reduction OF 2s%
in interstate rates was ordered.
refiners appealed to
the interstate commerce commits
sion with the result that the Mon
tana interstate rates were in
creased and interstate rates were
lowered. There have been subse-
quent adjustments, including an
Increase effective Sept. 81, Of
one percent per hundred on dis
tances over SIS miles, however.
