The railroads OF the state are
to reduce the passenger rate in this
state from three cents to two or
two and a half cents per mile At
the recent meeting OF the Mississippi
Railroad Commission the companies
produced figures TO show that they
were not making money on passen-
ger traffic in this state at the pres
ent rate and that a reduction OF the
rate would seriously handicap the
roads 1t was also indicated TO the
commission that much of the railroad
mileage built in the state during the
past ten years is practically new and
not safe for heavy or rapid transit.
The rates as now established on both
freight and passenger business In
Mississippi are declared to be as low
as they can be reduced without Grip
pling the companies. since. as they
show, the various roads are still
spending large sums annually on bet
termcnts, branch extensions. etc. The
money which might generally be sup
posed to 60 into dividends to the
stock b olders is being used to i'm
prove the systems in every particu
lar. The companies declare further
that they are actually operating
trains at loss in order to provide
adequate passenger and freight trans
portation.
