KANSAS CITY MAY LIFT
BOYCOTT ON THE KATY
Kani'art City Mar. 22. In view of
the fact that damage may result to
Kansas City commercial interests in
Oklahoma through the misrepresenta-
tion of Kansas City's attitude toward
the Missouri Kansas fc Texas rail-
road and the further fact that the
fight now being made by Kansas City
for a proportionate reduction in rates
from fi'aheston may strengthen the
hands of competing roads in their de-
mand that the rate be withdrawn the
Kansas City merchants probably will
lift the embargo on the M. K. & T.
early next week.
It Is probable that the next step
will be a fight before the inter-state
commerce commission for the exten-
sion of the reduced rate to Kansas
City Columbus Haile vice president
of the Missouri Kansas & Texas says
that the rate to Oklahoma City was
fair and reasonable and that a pro-
portionate reduction to Kansas City
would be fair and reasonable. That
admission will be used as the basis
for the suit.
