States Favor Rail Rate Cut SEATTLE tm Washington and Oregon favor the railroads' plan to cut transcontinental "class rates" on miscellaneous freight, spokesmen (or the two states told an Interstate Commerce' Commis sion examiner Thursday. Bartlett Burns, ot the Washing ton Public Service Commission, and Clifford W. Ferguson, director of rail transportation in Oregon, out lined their views at opening ses sions of an ICC hearing on pro posed revision of Western rates. Idaho was slated to explain its stand Friday. Ferguson said while his state had 'little opposition" to the class rate reduction, it was concerned over any proposal to cut present com modity rates which he said ap ply to about 90 per cent of Ore gon's .shipments. ..... Both men said their states will oppose a proposal for a uniforn) rate structure applied to freight moved only in toe West. Utah has taken a stand for mis plan ai earl ier hearings. -1 ' Under the plan, the ICC would extend to the Mountain States and the West Coast mileage class rates previously placed in effeot east of the Rockies. While the plan would cut some 30 million dollars from the re gion's freight bill, opponents con tend railroads would try to raise the commodity rates, to make up tho last revenue. , Lumber, grain, livestock, farm produce and metals come under the commodity rates, which are generally lower than , the class rates. Ferguson argued a mileage rate "would be ruinous to Oregon's economy." .He said the ICC should continue the present rate scale. Bums offered an alternate pro posal suggesting a rate between reductions under the uniform plan and the railroad plan. Burns also cauea lor aiuujr class rates eastref the Cascades in the two states, ne saia muss generally are "reasonable" west I .... r. r- r a .4 M hilt U M hfl WAS convinced they are too high on the. east siae.
