P4 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 193 RAILROAD COMMISSION WOULD IRURALISTS PLANNING DENY TRUNK LINES’ REQUEST |) 5 FARM PROGRAM North Dakota Board Estimates| New Rates Will Save State $5,000,000 Denial of the western trunk line railroads’ petition for reopening of|charging gasoline was blamed for the the class rate case is asked in a brief forwarded Saturday to the Interstate) 4, Commerce Commission by the North Dakota board of railroad commission-| ers. | ‘The new class rates are to become; effective Dec. 3, unless the I. C. C.| reopens the case. The state com- mission estimates that, under the new, tariffs, North Dakota will save ap-; proximately $5,000,000 on shipments! to and from the state of commodi-} ties affected by the new rates. | The western trunk lines seek a} employment from the city of Mandan | southern editor reopening, rehearing and modifica-| tion of the report and order of the Interstate Commerce Commission. | “If the class rates are to be rein- vestigated,” the North Dakota com- mission's brief says, “then the grain,) livestock, petroleum and other rates will have to be reinvestigated. Report Is Cited “The carriers make quite a point of the age of the record and allege changes in conditions, particularly in the carriers’ financial condition. An adequate answer to the carriers’ plea of general insufficiency of revenue is the commission's report in the 15 per cent increase case. Certainly,! general lack of revenue cannot be urged as grounds for continuing un- reasonable class rates to and from North Dakota. “The carriers do not allege any change whatsoever in the relativity of conditions as between North Da-! kota and other states in western trunk line territory, for the reason that there is none, so that the record! is absolutely up to date so far as this feature is concerned. “The carriers’ statement that ‘they are merely asking that the commis- sion restore the revenue which its or- der takes from them’ is not accu- rate. If the commission restores the present adjustment after Dec. 3, 1931, (assuming that the new rates will become effective on that day) it will restore an adjustment against which we have fought for years, and that} is unreasonable and unlawfully dis-} criminatory rates to and from North Dakota.” i Deny Reduction Argument The brief recites that while the new rates make some substantial re- ductions to and from North Dakota, this is not due to the low character} of the new rates, but is due to the fact that the state's rates are now on high combination bases. ‘The state commission stressed that; there are material increases in the} western trunk line territory as a} whole, and that there are substantial increases in certain rates to and from; North Dakota. i Between Fargo and the Twin Cit-| jes, the brief says, first class is in. creased 9 cents per cwt., second class! 8 cents, third class 6 cents, fourth) and fifth classes 5 cents, and canned} goods, carloads, 7 cents per cwt, Simi- Jar increases are made between the) Twin Cities and Wahpeton, Grand) Forks apd Valley, City. ns “Even between the Twin Cities and! Bismarck,” ithe brief continues, “there are iticreases, such as three cents on first class and seven cents on third and fourth classes. There also are a number of increases be-; tween Chicago and eastern North) Dakota, such as 10 cents, first class; | 9 cents, second; 7 cents, third and; fifth, and 5 cents fourth. To Wah-j peton the increase is 18 cents on) . fourth class, 4 cents on agricultural implements and 4'2 cents on canned Potato Rate Increased “On such an important agricultural commodity as potatoes, serious in- creases are made, for example, 6% cents from Arnegard to Sioux City, and 3% cents to St. Paul. Arnegard is in the center of an important po- tato-growing territory. Additional instances of increases would only be redundant.” The state commission contends that the relativity of rates prescribed by the I. °C. C. as between North Dakota and other western trunk line states “gives us some relief to which we are entitled, and we stren- uously object to anything that will deny us our rights. “We have already paid rates for over a year, which the commission has condemned as unreasonable, and| =. D.C! we deplore the carriers’ efforts to continue or ‘restore’ this situation.” Emmons Court Term Scheduled for Dec. 1) Linton, N.

But this time, in- 1 o | stead of dealing with the mad frenzy of stampeded humanity who made an Empire overnight, he had to do-with @ pécture which has an English mil- lionaire clubman in New York City who wanted to outwit a manwise show-girl. Louis Sarecky is the man who su- Petvised the all-Technicolor comedy, “The Runaround” for Radio Pictures. It comes to the Capitol Theatre start~ ing Monday, with Geoffrey Kerr, Mary Brian, Joseph Cawthorn, Johnny Hines and Marie Prevost heading « cast of featured players, William J. Craft directed the picture. Sarecky is thoroughly trained in production, having supervised more than 21 talking photoplays for Radio Pictures. Among them were “Rio Rita,” “The Cuckoos,” and the great “Cimarro! He has worked himself up from the bottom of the ladder holding all positions from location man to production manager. His work in “The Cuckoos” gave him just the right comedy angle for “The Runaround,” he said. “Cimar. ron” provided the dramatic experience necessary to give this current picture Hand the right amount of suspense, he felt.
