He discussed freight rates between Oregon and Cali fornia points that were upset last winter by an Interstate Commerce commission ruling. i Hogue said his committee has been conferring with Southern Pacific representatives about the j present freight rates, but feared if the lumber industry had to j take its case to the ICC it would be over a year before the prob i lem was resolved.
