Respondent railroads sued in the Court of Claims to recover from petitioner United States, as shipper, the difference between actual tariff payments and those allegedly due on shipments of aerial bomb cases containing napalm gel.

It was claimed that the defendant was not entitled to the money because of his misstatement of earnings.

Michigan Law Review
In order to operate in interstate commerce, motor carriers must obtain a certificate of public necessity and convenience from the Interstate Commerce Commission and must obey the Interstate Commerce Act. However, motor vehicles used in carrying " . . . agricultural . . . commodities (not including manufactured goods) . . ." may operate free of the act. The commission on its own initiative investigated the meaning of the term "agricultural commodities," and after two years published a seventy-one page list classifying certain commodities as within or not within the exemption. Petitioner, an interstate trucker of various commodities listed as …
