United Grain Growers president Mac Runciman says he concurs with the Hall commission on branch line treatment but laments the report's lack of clear dispositions for lines under review. He faults the analysis of the Crow rate and livestock grain freight parity, and questions use of government terminals while urging careful study of specific lines and dates. He notes the report focuses too much on peripheral issues and offers little economic justification for its conclusions.
