Rates for livestock moved by rail denied by ICC
Washington March 20 the interstate commerce commission ruled livestock rates across the western half of the United States are not unreasonably high and dismissed complaints by the American National Livestock association and others seeking lower rates. Apart from minor schedule tweaks in the southwestern territory the commission left current cattle shipment rates in place and rejected the claim that reductions would harm carriers by causing annual losses. The decision dismissed a major case under a congressional resolution about whether railroad rates impose an undue burden on agricultural producers.
