INVOKE INTERSTATE BOARD Xutionnl Commission to Bo Implored for Stay of Proposed New Rate. Tho Interstate Commerce Com mission will bo asked by the Oregon Railroad Commission to investigate tho proposed ndvanco on lumber rates from the Pacific Northwest to tho East, and to postpone tho in auguration of tho schedule until after that Investigation. The State Commission flatly expressed the be lief that the advance is unwarranted. This body Bets forth fully to the In terstate Commerce Commission tho extent of the lumber industry In Ore gon and shows how severe the blow to the Industry will be If the in crease In rates is made. The Commission held a meeting last night at tho Commercial build ing headquarters and received J. N. Teal, attorney, and A. B. Wastell, secretary for tho Oregon & Wash ington Lumber Manufacturers' As sociation, which Is vitally Interested in maintaining the present lumber rate3 to tho East. The Commission received a petition from tho associa tion, asking that a petition be filed by tho Oregon Commission with the Interstate Commerce Commission, asking for an investigation of the ad vances In lumber rates to determine whether they are just and equitable, and further asking the postponement of tho Increase In rates until after such investigation. It is charged that tho proposed increase is in vio lation of the act of 1887. The railroad Commission decided favorably upon tho petition and de cided to act at once. Tho following telegram was prepared and sent: Text of Telegram Sent. Interstate Commerce Commission, Washington, D. C, On petition of lumber association of this state this commission will forward to you peti tion asking for Investigation of rea sonableness of proposed advance in rates on forest products from Oregon to other states. Approximately 40, 000 men are engaged in thi3 Indus try In Oregon. Capital Invested about $50,000,000. Proposed ad vance as announced will increase rates In some Instances 25 per cent over prevailing rates, and If made will seriously injure business of this state. In our opinion, proposed ad vances are unwarranted and we ask you to make Investigation thereof. If possible, have railroad companies refrain from putting rates into elfect until investigation is made. Railroad Commission of Oregon. By Thomas N. Campbell, Oswald West, Clyde B.
