Speed Prmram For Equalizing Freight Rates

OTTAWA, Jan. 10 - (GP) -. A st--jiped-up program for equalizing iiciglit. rates in different parts of Canada was outlined today by the Board of Transport Commissioners.

Expectations were the boards new rrocedure would sharply reduce the time for putting the rate-equalizii- lion plan into effect. Up to now official estimates of the time need- czl have rim as high as five years.

Under the plan laid down at to- ti.-tyiit brief hearing. the board uould have a tentative equalized rate scale drawn up within a few months.

It would subject this scheme to country-wide criticism and suggest- .uns.in a tour of Canada and then with its experts would draw up a iinnl plan. Parts of the plan would be implemented as they were de- rided upon. without waiting for the v.'ill')Ie to be completed.

While the board set no deadline. iiit-.re appeared good prospects that segments of the vast jigsaw puzzle of rates might find their place in the equalization structure before the end of the year.
