UNFAIR FREIGHT RATES TO GO FEB. 15

The actual wiping out of the freight rate discrimination between Indiana and Illinois will take place Feb. 15. E. I. Lewis, chairman of the Indiana Public Service Commission was informed officially yesterdtiy • _ On that date the Central Freight Association rates and official classification will be effective in Illinois, thus pushing back the discriminatory freight rate line from the Indi-ana-Illinois border to a line from Chicago to Peoria, thence along the Illinois River and the ‘ Mississippi River, and including St. Louis and other cities and towns pn the west bank of the river. A copy of the new Illinois tariff has been received by O. P. Gothlin, rate expert of the commission, from the United State railroad administration. At present the Illinois in-tra-state shippers are ehjoying rates lower than in Indiana, but under the new tariffs the Illinois rates will be the same as in Indiana and the other states comprising the C. F. A. territory. —— —- Nearly two years ago the Indiana commission took up a fight in the interest of the Indiana shippers who have for years 'tried to bring about a reform in the freight rates between the two states so that ike Hoosier commercial interests oculd compete with Chicago and Illinois firms in territory that was within geographical trade radius of the Indiana shippers. The fight was bitterly contested by the Illinois interests and was carried through several lengthy hearings and was finally brought before the Interstate Commerce Commission. In the fight against the unfair Illinois rates, the commission co-op-erated with the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce and a number of Indiana shippers.

HOME TALENT PLAY TO BE GIVEN NEXT WEEK

Rehearsals have been under way for the past several days at the Ellis theatre for the staging of the play, “The Giri In the Attic,” which is to be shown Friday and Saturday evenings of next week. The cast is made up of local people, and is being directed by Miss Hughes, a professional actress who played here recently with the King players. ,The play is .to be given under the auspices of the War Mothers and the money derived by the play will be applied to the fund which is ultimately to provide the county with a community building. In the cast will be found six ex-sol-dier boys and three young ladies, the sisters of soldiers. The names of those in the cast will not .be published- at this time, but will be published some time next week. However,/ the War Mothers state that all are very clever performers and that the play is bound to please as home talent plays have pleased in the past. ■ Tickets will be placed on sale early next week and the undertaking should receive the hearty support of our citizens, as the proceeds are to help fill a long felt want.

HIGH CLASS PRODUCTION AT ELLIS TONIGHT

In securing “Friend Wife,” for an engagement at the EMis theatre this Saturday evening, Manager Hill feels that he has made a ten strike and that he has secured one of the highest class companies ever to appear in the city. The company, twelve in number, arrived this morning from Bloomington, Hl., where they had just finished an engagement. It was only through a break in the company’s playing dates that Mr. Hill was able to secure them for tonight's engagement, as they play only the larger cities. At the present time they are on their way to the Pacific coast to play the coast states. “Fair and Warmer” follows tonight’s production on February 4.
