Armour Car Lines president George B Robbing testified before the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee that private cars are not used to obtain rebates and that after the Wheat law they instructed staff not to take rebates. He blamed commission merchants for attacks, noted the code book theft claim as revenge, and argued rates are fair and service strong though car shortages occurred in North Carolina and Georgia fruit shipments.
