Filing Codes IC

1. Single shipments which consist of articles subject to only one
   class or commodity rate will be charged at the actual or
   authorized estimated weight and at the class or commodity rate
   applicable, subject to the minimum charge in the appropriate
   minimum charge item in this Tariff. 
   
2. Single shipments which consist of articles subject to two or more
   different commodity rates, when articles subject to such different
   rates are separately packaged, will be charged at the actual or
   authorized estimated weight, and at the class or commodity rate
   applicable to each, subject to the minimum charge in the
   appropriate minimum charge item in this Tariffs. 
   
3. Where different scales of rates are provided for shipments of
   different weights, apply on each article the rate which would
   apply on that article if such article were tendered as a straight
   shipment weighing the same as the aggregate weight of the mixed
   shipment.  Any deficit between the actual weight of the shipment,
   and the weight provided for the next lower scale of rates, will be
   charged for at the lowest rate applicable to any article in the
   shipment. 
   
4. When two or more commodities for which different ratings are
   provided, are shipped as a mixed shipment without actual weights
   being obtainable for the portions shipped under the separate 
   ratings, charges for the entire shipment will be computed at the
   class or commodity rate applicable to the highest classed or rated
   commodity contained in such mixed shipment.  The minimum weight 
   shall be the highest provided in any of the rates used in 
   computing the charges.  In the event a lower charge results by 
   considering such commodities as if they were divided into two or
   more separate shipments, such lower charge shall apply.
