A MESSAGE IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST
about repeal of the 1913 Excess Freight Train Crew Law
being considered by the 1965 Legislature.
him mm
with other states unless the
1913 Excess Freight Train Crew Law is repealed!
What's your business?
LUMBER?
When southern lumber ship
pers get a lower freight rate
to prime midwest and eastern
markets, and you still have to
compete, what happens?
LIVESTOCK?
You have asked the railroads
to reduce westbound feed rates
so you can compete with grow
ers in other states. What if the
I.C.C. should deny the reduc
tion because of railroad costs?
Oregon Is one of only two states west of Chicago In
which an archaic law saddles every consumer with the
burden of paying for unnecessary firemen and brake
men on freight trains. This burden amounts to over
$5,000,000 a year. California repealed a similar law
last year.
it it . &
j
GRAIN?
If railroad competitors are suc
cessful in persuading the I.C.C.
to suspend recent railroad rate
reduction, and you still have
to compete, what happens?
ORDINARY CONSUMER?
Much of what you buy is made
elsewhere. What happens when
the trains carrying goods to
you have to stop at Oregon's
border to take on an excess
fireman and brakeman for the
ride through Oregon?
VOU PAV THE FREIGHT
Freight Rates Are Based On Railroad Costs
All railroad freight rates are subject to approval of the
Interstate Commerce Commission which can investi
gate, suspend, and in some instances prescribe specific
rates. Since the Interstate Commerce Act was
amended in 1958, the primary consideration of the
I.C.C. in arriving at rate case decisions has been actual
railroad operating costs.
Old Oregon Law Now Inflates Railroad Costs
The operating costs of Oregon railroads today are in
flated by about $5,000,000 each year for unneeded
firemen and brakemen required on freight trains by
the 1913 Oregon Excess Crew Law. Repeal of this ob
solete law is now being considered by the 1965 Oregon
Legislature. It puts an unnecessary cost burden on
every consumer and shipper in our state. In all the
nation only four other states still have laws requiring
six-man crews on freight trains.
