PETITION STATE TO
RESTORE 3 CENT FARE
Alleged UnreasOnably Low Rate
Declared to Have Cut Deep
Into Revenues of Rail-
roads Of Kansas.

Claiming the 2-cent fare to be
the cause Of a heavy loss in annu-
al net earnings, all railroads Op-
Grating in Kansas yesterday filed
petitions with the public utilities
commission asking permission to
re-eStabliSh the Scent fare.
For seven years Kansas has en-
joyed a 2-cent far by agreement
between the railroads in the state
pending a decision in the NebraS-
ka rate case. The Nebraska case
was decided five months ago, re-
storing the Scent fare there.
This move on the part of the
roads has been expected since last
June when the Nebraska decision
e was made. When local officers
Of the Santa Fe and Rock Island
we're asked about it they would
not say positively that an effort
would be made to have put in
force the Scent fare. But they
have contended all along that the
rate was unreaSonably low.
Ask Immediate Hearing.
The roads operating in Kansas
which are interested in a return
to Scent fares are the Missouri
Pacific, Missouri, Kansas & Tex
'as, AtchiSon, Topeka & Santa Fe,
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, St.
Joseph & Grand Island, Midland
Valley, Kansas City Southern,
Kansas City & Orient, Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific, st. Louis
& San Francisco, Kansas South
weston, Leavenworth & Topeka
and the Union Pacific.
An immediate hearing of the
case will be asked by the petition
ers, urging that immediate action
will relieve intensified conditions
in the railroad world caused by
adverse legislation.
Their Taxes are High.
Increased taxes with no ma
terial increase in passenger earn
ings has caused this action, accord
ing to the petition. In its 'annua
statement last month the Santa FL
asserted that taxes during the las
ten years had increased 1SO pei
cent, while its earnings had ShowI
