Independent refiners fear rail rate move in Kansas
Topeka March 7 Railroads operating in Kansas plan to drop transport of crude and refined oil at the maximum freight rates set by a state law. Independent refiners and producers say the rates are discriminatory and confiscatory and would force losses. The law cut rates in two, aiding independent producers to reach markets and compete with Standard Oil.
