Railroad officials deny crippling unions in Spokane address
Charles Dillon, assistant to the western committee chairman, told Spokane chamber of commerce that railroads are not trying to break unions or cut wages.

Rate reductions mainly reflect savings passed to the public, not broad profit gains.
