J THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN. PHOENIX. THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 24, 1921. PAGE FIVE COLORADO joins F8BGES TO FIGHT UflJUSTJATES Hearing On Carriers Appli cation To Be at Helena Tcday and Salt Lake On " Friday and Saturday DENVER, Nov. 21 (Delayed) Colorado today for the first time in tlje history of transcontinental freight cases Joined force with the shippers further West in the inter mediate territory In opposing the pending application of the railroads for exceptions to the long and short haul clause of the transportation act In a hearing before Examiner Wil liam A. Dlsque. The Colorado shippers find that their own interests are Jeopardized and as Paul Smith, rate expert of the Colorado public utilities commis sion, phrasedit, "Will oppose the proposed rate's Insofar as they would result in discrimination against Colo rado manufacturers and Jobbers in the limitation of their distributing territory." And the new rates the carriers want would deprive Denver of the benefits of its geographical location in respect to western markets, would result in the closing of factories and would isolate the Colorado manufac turers and Jobbers, according to the testimony of Harry Dickinson,, com missioner of the Denver transporta tion bureau, and John A. Cook, pro prietor of the Denver Steel and Iron Works company. J. K. Moore, rate expert for the state corporations commission of Oklahoma, testified along similar lines, saying that it is unreasonable for the railroads to establishd west bound transcontinental rates lower than rates to Oklahoma, a midway point on the coast-to-coast rail traf fic. , New Element in Case Mr. Moore likewise presented ex hibits In support of his contention that the proposed rates are not "rea sonably compensatory" and the law declares they must be before the in terstate commerce commission can give permission for their publication. H. W. Prickett, manager of the Utah Traffic Service bureau, intro duced a new element into the case when In reply to questions by Exam iner William A. Disque he suggested: "Let the carriers publish races from ports to ports that can be expected to meet water competition, but stop the reduction of rates at the expense of Intermediate points at the porta The Intermediate territory is asking for nothing more than Justice, and if the carriers are permitted to meet water competition between the ports of the Atlantic and those or the fa. Delicious Thanksgiving Dinner cific it seems to us that the ends of rate Justice should be served." Mr. Hearon testified that the plant of the Colorado Fuel and Iron com pany was closed three weeks ago partly because water competition through the Panama canal from Pittsburg and other eastern steel mills had .driven the Colorado com pany out of the Pacific coast markets. - Dodges Issue EI. W. McCarthy of Salt Lake, pres ident of the Intermediate Rate asso ciation, sought to elicit from the wit ness the fact that whether steel and iron products are sold from Colorado or from Chicago they are sold on the Pittsburg base, and the freight rate from Pittsburg to destination is add ed in every case. But Mr. Hearon dodged the issue. The federal trade commission is now making an lnve stigation of this particular situation in the steel Industry. The suggestion was made again that a possible solution to this prob lem could be reached should the in terstate commerce commission be given Jurisdiction over the coast-to- coast rates charged by the water carriers. This time it was Mr. Moore of Oklahoma who urged this method of preventing an endless and profit less rate war between the railroads and the American merchant marine. Examiner William A. Disque left tonight for Helena where the Mon tana shippers will be heard on Wed nesday, with hearings to follow at Salt Lake on Friday and Saturday. o Disarmament Is Coming By Herbert Johnson OLD 0 G S Served From 3 'Till 8 Bum PJI i BpanRi St? e aneh.

The- Outstanding Significance Of Thanksgiving Day Is the victory of that stout band of Puritans who triumphed over the obstacles of Nature and Redskins. After that first year of struggle and hardship, they knew that determination and an indomitable spirit could win against manifold ob stacles. We see the spirit of the Puritans exemplified in many busi ness organizations today. During the trying year now happily passed, many a struggle for business existence was decided favorably because men used courage, sagacity and unrelenting effort. That this store has been privileged to serve the good people of Phoenix and the Salt River Valley, is an added reason for our being grateful on this Thanksgiving Day.
