Lumber Shippers Fight Excessive Freight Rates case
A U S circuit court of appeals in New Orleans voided a 2 cent per 106 pounds rate hike on Southern reads as unlawful and ordered withdrawal of the rate and refund of excess charges. The Georgia lumber trade, handling about $8,000,000 in lumber, faced higher prices pending relief. Judge Speer issued a temporary restraining order and the matter proceeded to the court with a $100,000 bond to secure refunds.
