WILLARB CROSS-EXAMINED IN RATE INCREASE BEARING: Baltimore and Ohio President Main tains That Cincinnati. Hamilton and Dayton Deal Had No Bearing on Present Need of Railroads » By i wieitli# Prm.

To-day's hearing before the Interstate Com merce 1 oramieeiou on the applies tion ot' the eastern railroads for iu creased freight rates on their conten tion that financial exigencies brought on l»y the KurouiMre war make them needfiH. was devoted largely to a cioas examination off Resident Willard. of the Halt .more and Ohio, on the rela tions of that system to the Cincinnati. Hamilton and Dayton. /Louis 0. Brandeis, special counsel for the Com mission, 'aid stress on his ipies tious on the Ratlimore and Ohio invest a,en; of more than $20,000,000 in the Ohio line and its assuniptiou of obliga- Non* of a like amount. The witness said the investment represented only au interest charge of $1,000,000 annually aud iusisted that it would not have af i fected the present situation of the line. "If you did not have the Cincinnati. Hamilton and Dayton vou would ha\# the money you invested, would you not? suggested I ommisaioner Meyer. •'Certainly,'.' answered Mr. Willard. IHe added that he still maintained the Cincinnati. Hamilton sn\l I'ay.ton ileal 1 had no bearing ou the present need of i the railroads for added revenue. He declared the present condition of all railroads was such that they were com . pel led to allow their rolling stock and roadway* to drdp below standard. "How have you speut on the i Cincinnati. Hamilton a:id Dayton in tne last eighteen monthsf" asked Mr. Brandeis. He added that the Ohio line had showed an annual deficit for years before its purchase by the Baltimore j aud Ohio and last year that had total | led more than $3,000,000. Mr. Willard again replied his road was not .urging t:ie status of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Daytou as a reason for granting J a rate advance. i otuinissioner Meyer also sought to draw from the witness information as | to what railroad stockholders demand ied iu ash ;u< payment oa their invest J tnents and with what proportion of new i work accomplished along the line they I would he satisfied. Mr. Willard argued tiia: substantial payments on invested capital were necessary to insure credit j of railroads and enable them to bor ■ row the money needed for improve ment work. Takiug up statements filed by tho I carriers to support their plea. Clifford | Thorne. appearing for several Stare j ra.iroad commissions and shippers' as | sociations asked Mr. Willard if it was ' not true that the years picked* by the j railr>a is for comparison to show fail j ure of new investments to earn any return were the only years that would show that result. The statement com pared figures for 1910 and 1913. Mr. Thome read figures for 1913 and sev | eral other ye As both before and after 1910, which showed earnings on near capital. Mr. Willard did not challenge the figures read and his croes-elamina tion closed.
