vlth those assessed by ruilroad llnei
', In Washington and elsewhere. After
Isi'ch Investigation, we are satisfied
'sufficient grounds exist for an Investi
gation," said Commissioner Corey.
; "There is considerable public Interest
' manifest In a comparison of railroad
ates In eastern Oregon with those In
I Washington where. It Is alleged, opor
ntlng conditions are more difficult.
Illustrating the prevailing grain rates
we cite the lollowing figures: Walla
; Wulla to Seattle 215 miles, rate IS 3-4
; cents.
t "La Crande to Portland 302 miles,
rate 17 -l-2 cents."
