Hastings Interests

HASTINGS, Neb.. Jan. 16.-(8peclal
Telegram.) neallzing that It means life

tho Hastings Chamber of Commerce has
appointed a committee with authority to
employ counsed tn an effort to prevent
the operation of the Iowa freight rates
recently ordered by the Interstate Oom
morco commission. Unless the order can
be revoked or parity rates established In
Nebraska, the Iowa and Missouri Valley
shippers will have an advantage over In
terior points In shipments to westorn
places.
The discrimination comes from the fix
ing of zone rates on fourth-class frelgnt
by which eastern shippers can make de
liveries to western points at lower rates
than those In the west can.
As viewed here the Jobbers of tbn In
terior towns will cither have to move
farther east or go out of business if the
new rates are allowed to go Into effect.
