A rule containing such a discrimination shall not for the fact of such discrimination alone be found or held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, capricious, beyond the authority delegated to the agency, or characterized by an abuse of discretion or clearly unwarranted exercise of discretion.          Section History: Early Form [82 Acts, ch 1245, § 13]          Section History: Recent Form C83, § 93A.12 C87, § 176B.12 C93, § 352.12 Referred to in § 335.27
