Shippers and business men in Austin discussed advancing rates before the State Railroad Commission. A seven member committee was named to form a permanent state organization, potentially the State Board of Trade or State Chamber of Commerce, while railroad officials and shippers negotiated to limit commodity rate changes. The panel favored no general intrastate rate overhaul and urged readjustment tied to Texas rates, with emphasis on securing revenue for railroads and preserving current trade centers, as hearings continued.
