Supreme Court hears fruit and vegetable rate dispute
Washington January 15. Arguments before the Supreme Court on Florida East Coast railway rate disputes may shape Interstate Commerce Commission methods for fixing rates. Attorneys for the railroad contend the commission set too low a return on invested capital while shipper spokesmen push against paying a return on funds spent extending the line to Key West. Florida railroad officials supported the commission’s reasonableness, and ICC counsel urged using cost of service from railroad annual reports rather than evaluating each rate individually.
