as there is no such public utilities COM
mission to so order and will not pc Tor
more than a year, at the earliest, and
not then in case said public utilities COM
mission act dis not approved by vote of
the people, / believe it is my duty. as
Governor, to ask your company. through
you, to provide the people with such
five hundred mile mileage book as the
Legislature provided for, and which
vetoed as above stated.
You will remember that the bill came
within one vote of being passed over my
onl bill was introduced and passed by
very large majority in the House and by
a. considerable majority in the Senate, and
which | neither vetoed nor signed, and
which will become law on the third day
of the session of the next Legislature, by
special provision of the Constitution
I trust. in consideration of this record.
in this matter, that you will feel 1t your
duty to follow the clearly expressed
wishes of the people, through their rep
resentatives expressed and issue said
five hundred mile mileage book in the
very near future.
notice that the Boston d Maine Rail-
road Company has already ordered the
cage book in the State of New Hamp-
shire, to comply with recent legislation
in that state, and | know that the peo-
pie of Maine will not feel satisfied unless
they are used as well in the matter OF
transportation as are the people of New
Hampshire. With kind regards, | re-

Portland, Aug. Is. 1918

Portland, Aug. IS, 1918.
Hon. William T. Haines.
Governor, State of Maine.
Augusta, Maine.
Dear Sir:
have your favor of the 18th inst in
regard to 500 mile mileage ticket books
and referring to this subject in connec-
ton with our telephone conversation will
advise that we have been authorized to
place on sale 500 mile book good in the
state of Maine. effective September l.
1913 at a rate of Pa cents mile or $l1.21
book.
We have rather believed that the sale
of this book at two cents mile would
not be warranted as this would result in
drawing much revenue from local
tickets, which are now based upon a rate
of two and one-half cents mile on main
lines and branches on the Old Road. So
called, that is not including former
Washington County, Somerset, Sebasti-
cook and Moosehead, and Rumford Falls.
| testified before the Legislature last
winter on this subject, stating that our
passenger train service was not at the
present time self-supporting, and could
not in fact afford the present rate of
mileage ticket books.
Our passenger train earning for the
year ended, June so, 1913. amounted to an
average of s1.S6 a train mile, while our
average operating expenses train mile
without including taxes or bettefments,
amounted to $1.50, by which you will see
that even under present conditions our
passenger service is not Sef-supportfng.
Moreover our density of passenger
traffic was only about $500 per mile of
road compared with 5000 per mile of
road on the Boston and Maine railroad.
which is another reason why We cannot
afford as low rates as roads having
greater density of traffic.
Under these conditions | trust that the
mileage book as we propose to issue It
will give you and the public satisfaction.
Yours truly,
General Manager.
