Portland Victorious in Interstate Rate Case
Washington dispatch reports Portland won a rate case before the Interstate Commerce Commission. The decision voided several inland empire rates while sustaining others. Findings show certain class and commodity rates from the inland empire south of the Snake River to Portland and Vancouver were unjustly prejudicial, with specific reductions to align charges. The ruling notes Portland would see overall lower rates on many routes, including a 10 cent differential on south-of-Snake River commodities.
