Sweeping Reductions In Express Rates

A Washington dispatch reports sweeping reductions in express rates nationwide effective today by order of the Interstate Commerce Commission. Reductions run from about 16 to 125 percent on many packages, with 50 pound shipments greatly reduced while 100 pound rates largely remain unchanged. The changes will operate for two years and may become permanent if the commission finds them not too harmful to express firms competing with parcel post. The commission believes the lower rates will attract sufficient business to offset the travel and rail costs involved.
