Reasons Warranted Increase.
IMcChord held that the reasons
which the majority held to warrant
an increase west of Pittsburgh, where
rates are the lowest in the country,
warranted an increase.
While the opinion held that the
income of the eastern railroads is
smaller than demanded, in public in
terest, no showing had been made
warranting a general increase. The
real relief, the commission held, is
for New England roads and those in
the Central Freight association ter
ritory. 1t is held rather than raising
freight rates, the railroads should
discontinue the costly free services to
shippers and develop efficiency of
personnel and of equipment and stop
giving passes, and possibly increase
their passenger fares to keep pace
