BENTON TO ACT
FOR THIS STATE
National Association Solicitor
Represents Commission
at Washington
No number of the Oregon public
service commission will attend a
meeting railed by the Interstate com
merce commission In Washington to
morrow, for the purpoae of read
justing freight rate, but John K.
lienton. solicitor for the National
Asaociatlon of Hallway and t'lllity
comtuifaloner. will represent Ore
gon. "We authorise and request you to
represent ua." says a telegram from
the commission to Mr. lienton. "pre
senting such argument as 1j con
sistent with the following eiprea
sions: The Oregon commission Is
opposed to such action as will even
tually result In the application of
country-wide horizontal Increases In
rates. We believe the rountryvahould
be divided Into not leas than Urst
territories as covered by official
western and southern classification,
both for valuation and rate making
purposes, with possible further sub
division of western territory for ad
justing rater,"
The railway act provided that no
rates be reiueed prior to September
of thla year, except upon orders of
the Interstate commerce commission.
It also provides that the commission
may. if it sees fit, divide the coun
try Into valuation and rate making
districts. Apparently the three dis
tricts mentioned la the telegram to
Mr. lienton from the Oregon com
mission would be convenient.
