Rose Hill, today told an Interstate
Commerce Commission Hearing in
i Washington, D. C, that his comp
any is "wholeheartedly" in favor
I of low-cost multiple-car grain rates
,rropose1 by Southern Railroad Sys
i tern and that the rates will enable
small users to buy i;i ain at lower
, prices.
Johnson said that Southern's pro
' posed rales would result in annual
savings in transportation costs of
$45,000 to $60,000 to his company.
He also said "we will get a cheaper
and steadier supply of grain and
we will lie able to put out a cheap
er poultry product".
Nash Johnson & Sons Farms, IrK

turkeys, making 200 tons of feii
daily. The company keeps one to
two million broilers on feed all the
time and hatches out 6 or 7 hun
dred thousand turkeys annually.
Its inbound grain arrives "Mostly
by Gypsy Truckers which don't
