New Rates to Griffin Expected by January 1
Griffin Ga September 4 Special A letter to Secretary Royster of the local board of trade from J P Webster of the railroad commission of Georgia says the interstate commerce commission has extended the time for revising interstate rates to Griffin to January 1 1916. Local complaints led by W H Beck special attorney prompted favorable action. An order for revision was issued and the heavy volume of publishing work caused the extensions. Publications are anticipated by January 2 with relief sought. Atlanta rates will rise generally though Griffin should see regulation and removal of prior arbitrary rates.
