0neCOnfroIO on
Freight Rates
BY LYLE DENNISTON'
Star Business Writer

The Interstate Commerce
Commission voted, in effect.
to give up one of its controls
on freight rate cutting by
railroads.
That was the meaning Of Q
commission decision made
known yesterday. By a s-to-1
vote, the agency decided 1t
would not try any further to
get the courts to approve one
Of its 1861 rulings.
In that ruling, ICC made Q
policy forbidding railroads to
charge less than a minimum,
or floor rate, to carry ship
ments Of mixed freight.
This floor rate was an aver
age Of the separate rates that
would have been charged II
each Of the items in the mixed
shipment had been carried
alone.
ice said 1t had no choice
in the matter, that Federal
law compelled 1t to keep in
tact the system of rates based
on separate "classifications" Of
freight. The law, as ICC read
it, prohibited rates on mixed
shipments that undercut q
classification" rate.
If railroads wanted the law
changed, they would have to
go to Congress, the commits
sion commented.
This ruling, railroads felt,
would keep them from bidding
freely for mixed shipments
the kind Of traffic they have
steadily lost to trucks.
With the new know-how In
packaging freight in containers.
rails could haul a variety Of
goods for the same cost. They
wanted more freedom to set
albright" rates low enough
to attract mixed shipments.
So the New Haven Railroad,
involved in the 1861 case. chal-
lenged ICC in court.
A three-judge Federal court
in Connecticut last July upset
the agency decision in July.
the agency decision.
The average or classified
ton" rate rule in the law, the
judges held. was to be used
only to maintain rate ceilings.
not floors.
Railroads, the court declared,
should be free to cut their
rates on mixed shipments to
as low a level as they can
and still meet their costs.
The commission has until to-
morrow to carry its case to
the Supreme Court. The vote
this week against an appeal
suggests ICC will abide by the
law as the three-judge court
interpreted 1t.

High Demand
For Big Gems
Cited for Theft
BY PHIL KEUPER
AP Business News Writer

NEW YORK. Diamond ex-
perts point out that Manhat-
tan's So million jewel robbery
came at q time when large
diamonds were being sold here
for as much as is per cent
above their normal price.
Large-Scale buying Of dia-
monds Of two carats or more
by foreign dealers has touched
off strong demand, dealers said.
But one expert doubted the
thieves had the high level Of
diamond prices in mind when
they timed Fridays holdup of
a jewelry delivery truck.
For one thing" said a
spokesman for DeBeers Con-
solidated Mines. Ltd, the
level Of the market probably
wouldn't do the thieves much
good. On an average. the thief
gets between 5 and 10 per cent
Of the insured value Of the
stone"
Would the high market make
1t easier to sell the stones7
II don't know" he said. I'VE

nation about what the loot
really was. Most jewelty uses

There's q steady demand for
them. yes. but not to the point
where anybody would be glad

Insurance sources had q
simpler explanation for the
timing Of the robbery: Most
jewel robberies, they said, &C.
cur during the pre- Christmas
season.
Jewellers do their biggest
business at this time Of the
year and trucks are moving
stones everywhere" said a
spokesman for the Insurance

New York dealers pay the
highest insurance rates also
said the spokesman, but the
cost varies from dealer to
dealer.
A major problem IN tracing
stolen jewelry, especially dia-
monds, insurance men said, is
that few stones have identi-
flying marks.
you can't tell diamonds
apart unless you have a par
ticularly unusual stone" one
industry source explained.
There have been efforts to
mark them but they haven't
worked because there is no
central agency to catalogue
them. Besides. they are con-
Stantly being traded"
