Three witnesses were examined by the interstate - commerce commission yesterday afternoon In the attempt to get. at tne reasons wny Portland's dis tributive rates are kept so high that this citvis placed at a serious disad vantage in the fight for trade with the east The. witnesses were A. J. Kings- ley, a chair manufacturer; H. Witten berg, of the Pacific Coast Biscuit com pany, chairman of the transportation committee of the chamber of commerce, and J. R. Bowles,' a structural steel manufacturer. . In every case the testimony was to the same "effect that Portland's dis tributive rates restrict "the territory that this city can ship to, and that they are unreasonably high, as compared with those of similarly situated cities in the east and middle west. The point that Portland does not wish the old rates to Spokane restored necessarily, but does wish a corresponding cut In rates to coast terminals, wss emphasised.' Mr. Kings ey said tnat aa compared with Grand Rapids, Mich., It cost him about three or four times as much to ship chairs out of Portland for th same distance. Portland ought to be a very desirable place for manufactur ing chairs, said Mr. Klngsley. but the excessive distributive rates make it im possible for him to ship more than 10 per eent of his product eaat of the Cas cades.
