Griffin Rate Fight Raises New Freight Billing Point
Griffin Georgia March 16 former state railroad commissioner BG McLendon spoke urging the Griffin Board of Trade and city council to press for freight rate revisions before the Interstate Commerce Commission. He urged abolishing compulsory marine insurance in tariffs arguing the charge unjust and based on tonnage, not value, costing southern shippers more. He proposed coastwise insurance at 0.4 percent and noted Savannah cotton shipments illustrate the disparity. The petition aims to remove the insurance feature and the rate tied to it, promising lower costs for southeastern points and possible expansion with other southern cities.
