Senator Miller seeks ICC freight rate probe amendment failure
Senator Miller pressed to widen an Interstate Commerce Commission inquiry into railroad freight rates arguing Southern carriers pay high costs and face reduced public benefits. The amendment sought to ban non compensatory rates and shield water carriers from unfair competition, but it failed after Wheeler opposed and the measure was withdrawn and approved only as a voice vote. Senator Hill defended district service in the rail charge fight.
