Railroads' $500 Freight Increase Suspended by ICC
The Interstate Commerce Commission suspended a proposed $500 freight rate boost sought by U S railroads, which would have averaged about 4.5 percent nationwide. The ICC found the carriers failed to justify a selective increase up to 10 percent and extended the Feb 6 surcharge for freight rates. The extension remains until a final ruling on the permanent increase is issued. The Price Commission had urged suspending the request for several months.
