Charles Webster will establish an office in Chicago to secure cars directly from railroad heads for Iowa shippers, with orders routed through local agents and Webster. The Interstate Commerce Commission backs the plan, noting near term relief as 150,000,000 bushels of grain await shipment and livestock stalls.
