Senator George D. Aiken announced that the Interstate Commerce Commission discontinued a plan to raise truck rates on southern textile shipments to New England. The proposed 15 percent rise for less than truckload and 6 percent for truckload rates would have affected Vermont New Hampshire and Maine retail prices. He cited the move as discriminatory noting longer routes from Danville Virginia to Bennington Vermont would be charged more than shorter routes from Atlanta to Massena New York. The petition was withdrawn by truckers and formally discontinued by the ICC.
