   underlying vessel operating common carrier to another
   and/or to substitute 1 (one) mode of transportation for

   transportation deemed appropriate by the Carrier, within
   the range of ports named in Rule 1.1 or 1.3.  Except as
   otherwise provided below, such substituted service or
   transfer arrangements shall NOT result either directly
   or indirectly in any lessening or increasing of the cost
   or expense which the Shipper 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 utilized
   are named in NRAs and Carrier, pursuant to the provisions of

   the transportation route selected by the Shipper or Consignee, or the
   freight charges applicable via the actual route of movement, whichever

   Lines, Inc. to transport cargo or furnish service for which it 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 shall be construed as
   creating any obligation for Demo Tariff Lines, Inc. to institute or
   maintain any service from or to any port or point where it is
   impractical, unsafe or unlawful to operate transportation services
   or if strikes, labor disturbances, civil commotion, military actions,
   or riots are occurring at the time shipment is tendered or delivered.

   port congestion, strikes or labor disturbances,
