Iowa Protest Over Livestock Tariffs Proposes Stock Valuation Rule
The Iowa commerce counsel filed a protest with the Interstate Commerce Commission challenging rail tariffs that set livestock transport rates by declared stock valuation. It argues valuation dependence is unreasonable, urges suspending the schedule, and notes proposed penalties for underdeclared values along with the Cummins amendment limits. The issue ties to Iowa’s large livestock interests and the new guard reorganization plans.

Indorse New Rate Bureau Faces Iowa Insurance Shift
Iowa mutual and mutual companies notify Insurance Commissioner Emory English they plan to meet Iowa Rating Bureau requirements. A Tuesday meeting of Iowa Mutual Association officers discussed policies and guidance for writing policies before the law takes effect. Indications show at least two rating bureaus will operate in Iowa with Cedar Rapids hosting a new bureau for Automobile Fire Insurance, while most firms plan to accept the Des Moines bureau’s rating. Berry growers in Kansas move to pack berries in pint and quart boxes while selling as full quarts, provoking complaints and a pending investigation by the state pure food and dairy commission.
