Onion freight toll suspension saves growers in Texas
The Interstate Commerce Commission will suspend six months of freight rate increases on onions and vegetables, protecting Laredo growers from over $50,000 in extra costs this season. The move follows a coordinated effort by the Laredo Chamber of Commerce, local vegetable growers, and Texas shippers led by J. Davis, S. Johnson, and K. Christen, with legal work by Judge Cowan and assistant Byars begun in January. The case will be heard in Chicago this month and next, potentially extending the relief to Texas hearings if permitted.

Will Appeal Shoe Machinery Case In Supreme Court
Washington reports preparations are under way to appeal to the United States Supreme Court the government dissolution suit against United Shoe Machinery Company. The Federal District Court in Boston dismissed the suit for violation of the Sherman act, after a trial that began in May 1913 and cost the government between 30 000 and 40 000 dollars.
