' The Maritime Transportation Commission made the recommendation to a royal commission investigating agreed charge contracts between Canadian railways and shippers. Agreed charges are special low contract rates given by the railways in return for a guaranteed percentage of a shippei"s business. Rand H. Matheson. executive manager of the commission, said Canada's transportation picture has changed since the last investigation by I royal commission between 1948 and 1951. The changes included in- creased competition between the railways and trucks. the bid of the! railways for greater freedom in setting rates. actual rate wars be- tween carrlers and the delegation. to the provinces of control over in-1 ter-provincial motor vehicle trans- port. ANOTHER COMMISSION Th investigation. Mr. Matheson said,' could be carried out by an- other royal commission or some. other investigating body It was al matter of studying the transports-l tion picture in order to decide a proper transportation policy whichi would be equitable in all parts of. the country. ”it appears to this commission that changed conditions...tvill re-i quire very soon a more searching analysis than that which appears erence of this royal Mr. Matheson said. commission," proposals for a great relaxation of control and the highly competitive situation which has been develop- ing with its actual rate wars and clisturblnc consequences emphasize the need for a most careful study in the public. interest.

Other lovernment proposals cov- ered increased financial stability, freer trade, continued support for NATO and the UN, and closer harmony with the United States. The state opening held all its traditional splendor. The House of Lords was packed with brightly- rnbcd peers. their furred-and bo- jeweled ladies and sombre-suited commoners. The Queen wore .1 white and silver lace gown and, for the third time in her life, the heavy imperial state crown. She was escorted by the Duke of Edin- burgh ln the dress uniform of an admiral of the fleet. The sparkle of the pageantry was shaded alightly by the day's other big event.
