GRAIN HANDLING.
INQUIRY" INTO EXISTING METHODS DEMANDED.
A
AT MONTREAL.
ak
THE CHINA MAIL.
An inquiry into the arstom of handlag grain in Montreal has been- demanded by the Dominion Marine Association representing Canadlar Lake vessel owners. which main tains that foreign boats are given preference over Canadian ahlps at the local elevators, and also de-
clares elevation and shovelling
charges there are unfair: "In a statement recently lasued the asso- ciation cites the case of the Nor- wegian vessel "Porsanger," which was permitted to unload a cargo of Argentine cern while thirty other Lake vessels were held up,
Concerning handling charges the association says: "The elevation charge of 0 cent per bushel and shovelling change, of 2.25 acls, per 1.000 bushels is also felt to be very anfair, particularly the latter !charge, na inquly among loeg) ¿stevedores elicits. the lafamation; that they are ready to contract for this work on the basis of 1 dcl. per 11.000 bushels. The · elevation charge is very discriminatory, as the oume charge is not made to (neena vessels, where three to four times the handling is required, ins eluding the mixing of gradės, weighing up of small parcels, and delivering over the conveyor system possibly a mile in extent,
"The port of Montreal showed a profit of £240,423 on its grain handling system during 1925 Therefore it is felt. In view of the forthcoming elections and the har- bourappointments which will result, that...a thorough inquire into the administration and their tariffs
