Sweeping Cuts Proposed in Express Rates Across Nation
The Interstate Commerce Commission released a lengthy report proposing drastic reforms in express rates, aiming to cut small package rates by about 25 percent. It finds major carriers are interlocked, suggesting a few groups control most express business, and recommends a scientific, weight based scheme to shift costs more equitably from shippers to consumers. The plan targets small parcels under 2 pounds with substantial rate reductions and anticipates beneficial effects on farm-to-city trade, with over 300 million parcels handled annually and an October hearing for a follow-up order.
