RATE DISCRIMINATION IS
SCORED BY CANBY CLUB
I
CANBY. June 6. Charges that the
Southern. Pacific Railroad company j
-..-....., t, r 1
had discriminated against the city of
Canby in the matter of week-end and
.seven day special rates, were made
by A. F. Rosecrans at the regular
weekly meeting of the business men's
Booster club held in the Cottage hotel.
The Railroad company declared the
speaker, were making special rates
to the various small towns along their
line, but had so far omitted Canby
from the list. In view of the fact
that Canby was one of the principal
shipping points in ClacKamas coumy,
the speaker held that this was a de
cided injustice.
After considerable discussion by the
members present, M. J. Lee was ap
pointed to interview representatives
of the transportation company with
the object of having Canby included
in the same rates and favors as were
extended to other towns in the valley.

Intended Change
In Rate Powers
Decried By Club
Vigorous protests against the pro
posed legislation to curtail the au
thority of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and place power to regu
late interstate rates in the hands of
the different public service commis
sions, is voiced by the local com
mercial club. In letters to senators
and representatives at Washington
from Oregon, Ralph L. Shepherd,
chairman of the transportation divi
sion, of the Commercial Club, brands
the projected changes as a misconcep
tion of the true operation of the pres
ent law3 and urges the defeat of the
amendments.
The specific bills to which it is re
ferred are Senate Bill 1150, by Sena
tor Capper of Kansas, and House Bill
6861, Representative Sweet of Iowa.
They would amend sections 3, 13, 15
and 15A of the interstate commerce
and transportation act of 1920.
Action similar to that of the com
mercial club has been taken by the
industrial plants in this city. The
communications point out that single
jurisdiction over rates affecting dif
ferent states is vital to uniformity of
charge. They state that -the present
powers of the public service commis
sions are sufficient to amply cover all
cases where single state jurisdiction
is desired. Givng of the state bodies
jurisdiction of interstate rates would
make a chaotic condition, they claim,
because of the fact that in establish
ng a rate through six or seven states,
that many diferent bodies would fix
the charges which would, instead of
being uniform, be twisted to suit the
individual needs of every locality.
Nearly 90 percent of the shipments
made are of an interstate nature, Mr.
Shepherd points out, stating that on
thi3 account uniformity of charge
through an entire line of transit is
vital to the conduct of shipping busi
ness. FARM COMBINES IT BY
LABOR UNION DECISION
WASHINGTON, June 7. Decision
by the United States supreme court
that a labor union can be sued under
the anti-trust law, admitted by labor
leaders to be the greatest single -blow
ever experienced by organized labor,
was held today to be equally menacing
to the organized farmers' movement,
which has been growing in the United
States at astonisbng speed in the last
few years.

Murdered Man's
Mother Is Sought
By Local Police
Search for the relatives of John
Carlson, whose decomposed body has
ben located near Sam Louis Obispo,
California, was begun here Friday by
Chief of Police W. May. Telegraphic
advices telling of the discovery of the
man under conditions which give rise
to the theory of murder, were receiv
ed here from Charles R. Nelson, as
sistant district attorney at San Louis
Obispo. -
The dead mam is believed to have
relatives, including his mother, re
siding in Oregon City. No trace of
anyone who might bear any relation
ship to him has been found.
The theory held by the California
police, according to. the telegram, is
that the man is one who had been re
ported missing or lost. The condition
of his body, Chief May says, would in
dicate that he had been dead for a
considerable period.
The information so far received
from the south is brief and none of
the details concerning the occasion
of the discovery of the corpse have
been sent here.
As far as the local authorities know
at the present time, no man by the
name of Carlson is missing from this
district, and no relatives of any man
by that name who might have been
in California have been located.
The telegram from the district at
torney reads: "Have you any record
of John Carlson reported lost or miss
ing? Mother reported living in your
city. Secure data as to when last
there, when and where last heard of,
and description of manj with any dis
tinguishing marks to identify him.
Body is decomposed. Suspect? murder
here.
"Charles R. Nelson."
