<£ I C-7S0S Weights - Basis of Charge - O ils & Products, Los Angeles, C al,, Nov, 8th, 1915, Mr, George ,T* Vogt, Aud.Prt,& Pass.Aocts, pear s i r :- Returning herewith papers accompanying your le tte r of the 5th in at,, your P ile No,33-262, In my opinion the t a r if f requires you to assess the rate upon the gallonage - f u ll capacity of the tank car. In view of the pederal regulation which operates to lim it the loading to 98^ of f a l l capacity* and in view of the recent amendment to your t a r if f providing fo r the assessment of the rate on that basis, it is suggested that application be file d -b y us with the Interstate Commerce Commies ion, as to shipments in terstate, and with the State Commission -in respect to those in tra -sta te , fo r leave to make reparation down to this basis. The amendment necessarily implies that the old basis was erroneous and unreasonable. Yours very truly, K-M. I
