Rate Cuts May Be
Aid to Coast Mills
HOSTON, Mnss. Oct. IS. Changes!
ero proposed In the lumber tariff
from points on the Canadian Pacific
nnd Canadian National railronds
which will decrease the rates on
lumber shipments to points on the
Boston & Maine nnd the Maine Cen
tral railronds approximately :s
rents and 4 cents a hundred weight.
These changes are staled In supple
ments Issued August 21 and effec
tive September 2:1 until December
81. While the lower ratos will un
doubtedly result In a saving to some
of the Canndlan mills manufactur
ing eastern spruce, pine and hem
lock and hardwoods, the new rates
may not work out to the entire
satisfaction of the shippers and local
wholesalers In the long run, accord
ing to opinions ndvanced here this
week. It can be stated with rea
sonablc certainty that the new and
lower rates will actually help the
aalo of west coast fir in southern
New England and New York terrl
tory.
Through freight rates to points
on the New York, New Haven nnd
Hartford railroad have not been
touched upon in these tariff revis
ions by the Canadian Taciflc and
Canadian National railroads. It has
been a custom generally recognized
here for many years for the market
to be based on Boston rate prices
which are affected by the new tar
iffs. Therefore this means that the
wholesale trade will have to add to
their differentials or arbitrnrles in
making prices delivered in New
York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad territory tho amount of the
decrease in the Boston rate.
As the competition between east
era softwoods and west coast fir in
tho territory served by the New-
York. New Haven and Hartford
railroad has been for some time and
now is very close indeed, the above-
stated addition to the base quota
tlons on eastern softwoods will mean
an added handicap for the eastern
spruce wholesalers and an added
margin of about tl or 1.25 which
the fir distributors can ecure in
competition. 4L Bulletin.
