communities as well as to Ohio, |
Michigan, Illinois and Wisconsin.” |
Mr. Arnett charged freight rate | changes sought by Southern states would give them an unfair ad-| vantage in shipping products North, and would penalize northern industries. He called the move an “effort to | induce removal of industry from | the North to the South,” Mr. Arnett said: “In addition to the freight rate | advantage it seems a very strong | and energetic movement seeks industrial development at the expense of the northern cities and communities.” Governors of eight southern | states have filed a complaint be- | fore the I. C. C. seeking rate changes.
