More than 1,000 let tera of invitation will be sent out this week from the headquarters of the as sociation here. . The conference has been ealed to eon- aider the attitude to be taken by the ahippers of this State toward two pro poaas that have beea eubmitted by the railroads to the interstate commerce Commission. The first proposal is for aa abolition of the recently cstabished import rate from Western points to the port of Wil mington. Any more of this kiad will be bitterly resisted by North Carolina interests. The seeond proposal ia for aa ad justment of tali rates. Shippers are agreed that a higher rate should be paid carriers, but are anxions that the increases allowed be reasonable aad that the aew schedules shall aot dis criminate against North Carolina. It has beea suggeated to Mr. Ireland that he invite the three candidates for governor, two of whom will probably still be ia th race June 8, to attend the conference and express their views on the subjects under consideration. Governor Birkett will also be invited to address the conference. Other speak ers include Mr. Matthew Hale, presi deat of the South Atlantis Maritime Association, and Mr. J. H.
