Southern coal rates to be investigated
Washington March 1 Charges that the Southern railway discriminated against Appalachian coal fields in favor of a coal trust were sent to the Interstate Commerce Commission for investigation. The Senate subcommittee found only a rate question, noted Dulane's evidence of unreasonable rates, but said the Southern had no chance to respond due to funding limits. The report says rates to the Southern territory are higher than those to other lines, and mentions new coal docks at Charleston as part of ongoing shifts in policy and terminals.
