   letter "W" appears next to an article or commodity,
   weight rates are applicable without regard to measure-
   ment.  Where the "Measurement" or the letter "M" appears
   next to an article or commodity, measurement rates are

   with storage, handling and receipt of cargo before
   loading on the vessel shall be for the account of the
   Cargo, and if such charges are assessed against the

   same charge in its full amount from the Shipper.
