State Opposed
to Rate Change
Secretary Cochran Fears That Pro
posal Would Increase Cost
of Gravel.
The state department of public
works is preparing to contest the ap
plication of Nebraska railroads for
changes in shipping rates on gravel.
Secretary Roy Cochran Raid Thurs
day. The railway commission is to
i " '
IIOIU
a hearing on the application
May 21.
The highway departments prin
cipal objection to the proposed
change is that it will tend to re
duce competition among the pit own
ers by giving certain owners an ad
vantage over others when bidding on
projects.
Under the present arrangements,
where one railroad owns a spur to a
gravel pit and the main haul is to be
done over another road the latter ab
sorbs the switching charge and the
purchaser pays freight only on the
distance between the switching point
to the destination.
The railroads propose to discon
tinue the practice of absorbing the
switching charge, which averages
approximately $6.30 a car, and ask
that they be permitted to make two
direct line haul charges, from the
pit to the switching point and from
there to the destination, with the
switching charge of 20 cents a ton
in addition. Each pit would be made
a station for rate making purposes.
The public works department con
tends that such an arrangement
would give not only a distance ad
vantage to certain pit owners, but
would In other instances enable some
pifowners to take advantage of the
extra switching charge which others
would have to consider if their pits
did not happen to be on the railroad
making the main haul. This differ
ence of 20 cents a ton would hinder
competition, the department con
tends.
The minimum rate on gravel is 30
cents a ton with the switching
charge absorbed by the railroad mak
ing the main houl. The addition of
the extra twenty cents for switch
ing charges would increase the cost
of gravel to the state approximately
one-third, Cochran contends.
It is also expected that many
gravel producers will attend tne
hearing and enter protest to the rail
roads' application.

Adjustments
are Proposed
Manufacturers' Association Urges
Plan to Avoid Turbulent
General Change
comprehensive
Washington A
program designed to institute a more
stable and permanent method of
tariff adjustment than the existing
practice has been laid before Con
gress by John E. Kdgerton, president
of the National Association of Man
ufacturers, on behalf of that organ
ization. Seven specific recommendations
are contained in the association's
plan. These proposals, according to
Mr. Edgerton, have nothing to do
with raising or lowering any particu
lar rate, but are designed primarily
to bring about a less disturbing
scheme of tariff administration
plan for determining rate adjust
ments without turbulent general re
visions. It is the purpose of the manufac
turers associations to increase the
effectiveness of the Tariff Commis
sion and widen presidential powers,
so that Congress can set up a more
effective agency to carry out its tar
iff enactments.
Seven Recommendations
The seven recommendations of the
association are: To drop the present j
concressionnl rtl.-in which Tin sen ni1 -

industry is demonstrably likely to
be Injured by a prevailing difference
in conditions of competition and
whn cuch industry is
conducted
with reasonable efficiency.
That for the purpose of rate adjust
ment within the rule prescribed, the
President may consider in such rate
adjustment, in addition to the differ
ence in cost of production of the
same or like competitive articles, al
ternative elements or com,;'
which are facts, that is. the diliV
ence in wholesale selling prices ot
such articles, in both the Unite-
States and the principal competing
foreign markets, the invoice prices
of foreign articles or their domestic
values in the United State, the ad
vantage received by a foreign pro
ducer from his Government or other
sources, the transportation cost from
principal foreign production points
to United States ports of importation.
compared with the transportation
cost of domestic articles from the
places of visible production to our
ports of importation, or any other
competitive advantage or disadvan
tage which is a fact.
Commission to Ge Facts
In the ascertainment of the facts
at issue, the President is to have the
aid of the Tariff Commission, which
is to procide opportunities for ap
propriate progress; in connection
with investigations or applications
for ahjustment. and the President
may not issue a proclamation or ad
justment until the commission has
investigated and made its recommen
dation. Substantially urging for the Exec
utive the same discretion is using a
practical system of domestic valua
tion as is recommended by the Treas
ury for the use of United States ap
praisers to ascertain a practical
United Stales valuation where the
foreign value is not clearly reflected
or obtainable.
To make such a concepiton of
tariff adjustment effective it is urged
that the Tariff Commission lie coin
posed of an odd number of members
to prevent deadlocks. The member
ship should be men of high qualifica
tion and compensated equally with
members of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and the body should no

Some of these proposals, partic

agency, have been incorporated in
the new tariff bill.

After Senator Norris had dis
