Note 421 — Chapter XXXV · HINTS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES.

While this book is on the press, the eighth report, covering 1902 and 1903, has come to hand. More than half the 180 new complaints filed in the 2 years directly relate to questions of discrimination—undue preference, rebates, denial of facilities accorded to others, excessive charges as compared with other rates, etc., and nearly all the 180 cases involve discrimination directly or indirectly. (See Appendix B.)
