Look for Green Sign MUST BE CONTENT U'WITH-HALF LOAF Railroads' Prayer lor Freight Rate Incrtase Partly Granted DECISION AFTER LONG DELAY Interstate Commerce Commission Grants Rate Increase In Central Freight Association Territory The Three Big Trunk Lines Will Dene tit by Decision Fewer Passes Are Suggested. Admitting that railroad revenues are insufficient, the interstate com merce commission has handed down a decision grunting an inoreaao In rates in Central Freight association's territory, but refusing all increases elsewhere. The district that receives the Increase is that lying between Pittsburgh and Buffalo vn the east, the Mississippi river on tlit west and th'j Ohio river on the south. No Increases are allowed In terri tory east of Pittsburgh and Buffalo, In the territory between Pittsburgh and Buffalo and the Mississippi rivci and north of the Ohio river, known as the Central Freight association terri tory, the commission tinds that tho carriers ara -entitled to an increase not exceed'ng 6 per cent on all class and commodity rates on shipments wholly wit'iln that territory, exctut the rates on coal, coke, Iron ore, ce ment, bricic, tile, clay, starch and plas ter, as to which the carriers did not sustain their burden of proof. The commission recommend that the practices of granting free trans portation of passengers nn:5 privale cars should bo further restricted by the carriers and calls utU'titton to the fuct that the-passenger miles repre sented by trip passes alone would have yielded in passenger revenue $18,520, 000. The commission suggests that prop erties acquired by the carriers which are not used for transportation pur poses be sold, adding: "It appears that the aggregate cost of such In vestments was more than $6S4,000,000. Included in these are properties of the aggregate cost of $183,14,5l9, from which no net Income whatsoever was received In the year 1913. These in vestment!, through Increasing the amount of capital required to be raised, Imposed lu many cases a great and unnecessary strain upon the car riers' credit, with the result of an in creased charge on all new capital Be- BIG MID-SUMMER.

The com mission suggests that all expiring c. n tract, with sleeping car companies should be carefully re viewed. The decision says further: "The contention of the railroads that their revenues are inadequate is sus tained. Tho operating income of tl railroads i.i ollicial classification ter ritory, taken as a whole, is smaller than is demanded in the interest of both the general public, and the ra ' roads. 'The present financial difficulties of the railroa-'s are recognized as a prob lem not only of the railroads, but of tho public, which it 13 the duty of the commission to help to solve. "It is our purpose to aid, as far ps we legally may. in the solution of the problem as to tho course carriers may pursue to meet the situation." The three great trunk lines, the Pennsylvania, the New York Centr 1 and the Baltimore and Ohio, have each a large mileage in Central Freight as sociation territory, so that their reve nues will be augmented by rate In creases in that territory. Thus, of tin New Yorl. Central system's 12,690 miles of line 8,938, or more than two thirds, are In association territory. Nearly one-half of the Pennsylvania mileage is also in tlmt territory and more than one-half of the Baltimore J and Ohio. The Erie, Chesapeake and Ohio and the Norfolk and Western also have important mileage In cen tral association territory.
