The embarrassment OF the Minneapolis &

stion ofthe Minnesota Observation-Disclosures.
The road is largely dependent upon
the ira tfic between Chicago and Min.
neapolis end St. Paul. It is! part OF the
Rock Island route, and is controlled by
that company. Although it is almost 100
miles longer than competing routes it was
enabled to secure enough through traffic
to make both ends meet. Under the op.
peration Of the Interstate law it wal una.
bile to meet the rates OF the Minnesota IL,
Northwestern. and Burlington a Northern.
To do 80 would involve q reduction
Of local ratesfs3 below o. paying basis

siderable amount 81 through business. al.
though IL had beenable in the past to meet
