Railways Agree To Cut Freight Rates In United States
President urges a sweeping plan to ease freight costs as the Interstate Commerce Commission orders a 10 to 10.5 percent cut across most commodities. Agricultural goods and Western grain face exemptions.

The commission also sets a 7.5 percent return on capital, adjusting earlier 6 percent targets after tax considerations.
