Railroad Rates Increase Approved by Interstate Commerce Commission
The Interstate Commerce Commission approved higher rail charges to yield about 1.5 billion dollars in revenue. Eastern lines gain 40 percent, Southern 25 percent, Western 35 percent, Mountain Pacific 25 percent, plus passenger and baggage rate rises and a sleeping car surcharge. Rates take effect August 27 with railroads to file schedules. The ruling shifts toward broader powers under the 1920 Transportation Act and signals a turning point in public policy on transportation.
