Denials by Armour Lines Challenge ICC Jurisdiction
Armour Car Lines challenged Interstate Commerce Commission authority over its refrigeration charges. It states it is not a common carrier nor the agent of railroads, and that contracts with Southern Pacific, St. Louis and San Francisco, Central of Georgia, Southern, Atlantic Coast Line, Seaboard Air Line, and Kansas City Southern show no links to railroad transportation or rates. The lines ice cars at local points for shippers under private contracts, and rates are set and kept for Armour Lines’ benefit. The reply asserts no agreement with railroads and no undue favor among shippers, and that the commission has no jurisdiction over its business or refrigeration rates.
