   1.4.  Except as otherwise provided below, such
   substituted service or transfer arrangements shall NOT
   result either directly or indirectly in any lessening or

   would have borne had the cargo moved from, to or through
   the port(s) originally intended.
     
c. When rates differentiated ONLY by the transportation
   route or service utilized are named in this Tariff

   service for which is does not have, or cannot obtain,
   suitable or sufficient transporting containers or
   equipment, nor to accept cargo when underlying
   vessel-operating-common-carrier or inland carrier
   services are NOT available.  Further nothing in this
   Tariff Section shall be construed as creating any
   obligation for Danmar Lines Ltd. to institute or
   maintain any service from or to any port or point where
