ZONE SYSTEM is
PROUTY'S PLAN

| Boston, oct CA zone system was
suggested by Interstate Commerce COM

| of the difficulty of increasing freight
rates on the Boston & Maine railroad
, at the hearing in the federal building
to-day
The commissioner suggested that the
territory served by the Boston y Maine
be divided into three zones varying ac-
cotdiug to the density of tho traffic with
Boston as the center As the cost of the
service varied with the density of the
traffi'. ne said shippers in Boston were
entitled to a lower rate than those 80
miles from Boston where tho traffic was
lighter In turn. shippers ." miles from
Boston We're entitled to lower rate than
those 100 miles away.
He said he thought IN. road might
reasonably ask for the increase it had
specified in its proposed schedule in Tn"
territory 100 miles from Boston, but he
thought the increase ought to be reduced
somewhat at points nearer Boston and
further modified within the city
Asked if he had any objection to such
system. Nlce-Prcsident Benjamin
Campbell of the Boston & maine replied
that he saw none except that it discrim-
mated bctwccn the shippers in the three
zones
Commissioner ProutN said that the ship
