Commission Rules On Southern Rates
Washington May 7 The Interstate Commerce Commission rules on deviations from the long and short haul provision affect southern railroads seeking higher charges to intermediate points. The decision grants relief in many cases and denies it in others, altering rate structures across the South and to Gulf ports from New York, Cincinnati, Louisville, and New Orleans to Atlanta, Athens, Cordele, and Birmingham among others. The report notes the Southeast’s navigable waterways and dense rail network shaping pricing and competition, with adjustments intended to create a more stable, reasonable rate system.
