Idaho in Washington by Ralph M. Olmstead
Idaho shippers face limited relief under the interstate commerce commission decision on surcharges. A 10 percent increase on existing rates applies with a 6 percent rise on most commodities, while coal and iron ore stay unchanged. Idaho's William E. Lee opposes raises on lumber, agriculture, and live stock, arguing agriculture should not bear extra rail costs. The piece covers wool loan programs, CCC camp reductions, and inane business humor from Howard Bros. magazine.

Agricultural Notes on Los Angeles Flood Livestock Market
The March 12 report shows 6543 cattle, hogs and sheep received by truck out of 7738, as rail service was disrupted by floods. Despite higher fat stock prices, overall market values rose only modestly and consumer pork remained relatively affordable with potential wider price spreads between best and plainer cattle.
