Baits the Railroads at Illinois Manufacturers Dinner
At the Illinois Manufacturers Association dinner in Chicago the shippers and railroads clashed over who should bear costs and how much freight rates should change. W C Brown urged railroads' role in national prosperity while Ohio C Barber urged rate cuts to aid shippers. Barber criticized Brown and called for a federal corporations act with railroads under one umbrella and government guarantees. Brown reviewed ten years of price trends noting freight rates lagged behind other costs and cited savings if 1957 expenditures matched 1997 prices. A Christmas tale note follows.

Limiting Oil Production Contracts Highlight 1904 Case
Frank B. Kellogg cited 1904 Pacific Coast contracts by Standard of California with two firms that controlled crude output, arguing evidence of restraint of trade. Moritz Rosenthal described noncompetitive terms as equitable, while Tilford admitted a 600000 barrel yearly Union Oil contract may be genuine. The trial shifts to economic principles and corporate profits with expected testimony from professors and top Standard officials.
