Cowan efFort } i'Ol'tVorth , Tex : , advocated ( several amendments to the Interstate coni coerce act as a method of reaching com lnatlons or railroads to fix joInt rates. . E. 1\ [ . Ferguson , who represents fruIt and vegetahle shllllmg associa- tions , made a brief speech In favor of the ElkIns hili. He protested against dlgcrlmlnationG In favor of concerns operating private refrigera- tor t cars , and charged that these own- ers get rates of from $100 to $ 'L00 less per ) car than other shippers , and there' fore were unfaIr competitors. Judge Cowan , representing several cattle growers' associations , who was heard hy the house commIttee repeated - lOated ) charges of discrIminations In carr } 'lng cattle to northern poInts , saying that there was an agreement between the railway companies which fixed joint rates hetween various points. Judge Cowan said that no cattle shipper was dIscriminated agaInst , but that comllOtlUon on rates had dls- appeared ) by reason of combination of . railroads and the rates had been advanced - vanced to many ponts.
