SCORES RAILROADS
AS UNJUSTTFTED IN
HIGHER RATE PLEA
Clifford Thorne Condemns
Carriers for Taking Ad-
vantage of the Situation
Produced by European
War"

WASHINGTON, Oct. SO.-Scoring the
railroads in Eastern classification terri
tory for taking advantage of existing
conditions to force the Interstate Com
merce commission to grant fiat In
crease IN freight rates of per cent, 70
meet the situation produced by the
Europesn war" Clifford Thorne, chair
man Of the Iowa State Railroad Commits
sion, today charged that the railroads
were unjustifled in their demands
He declared at the reopening of the
rate advance argument before the COM
mission that the plea for more revenue
TO pay dividends to bolster UP American
railway securities was not proper ar
gument to submit to show that railroad
property needed Federal help.
1.-THE question in this hearing" de-
clared Mr.. Thorne, "is whether or not
the commission will go outside Of its
Jurisdiction to grant an increase in
rates to the railroads.
Mr. Thorne said that the commission s
authority only extended to a point of
declaring what was reasonable rate.
SHOULD it be ascertained that the pres
-ent rates are not reasonable in view OF
the situation created by the European
war; them" said Mr.. Thorne, 1.-The COM
mission has proper authority to con-
slider the railroads application for tho
increase"
He added that an increase in rates was
not justified on the pretext advanced by
the carriers.
"REHASHING OLD ARGUMENTS"
Most of the lines in official classifica-
tion territory" said Mr.. Thorne, "are
distinctly prosperous. Hardly had the
ink dried on the decision printed by the
Commission several weeks ago in the
Eastern freight advance case when the
railroads come again asking for addi-
tional help. Today these self-same roads
are rehashng their old arguments of in
adequate revenues. There Is absolutely
no evidence of any fact since the record
In the former case was concluded showing
r. falling off OF any special commodities.
Their securities are selling at better
prices than before"
Mr.. Thorne introduced a petition from
merchants of st. Joseph, Mo-. opposing
the granting of the increase. 1t de-
clared the carriers had no more right
for an increase than Individual shippers
had for Federal help.
Mr.. Thorne declared that to grant tho
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1914-10-30

railroads application would be nae
tional calamity.
"The year 1913" he added, "was one
OF the most prosperous years for the
railroads Of the East, but maintenance
accounts were so manipulated that net
revenue accounts showed only small re-
turns" He accounted for the alleged
loss in revenues by the greater expen-
ditures for maintenance
BRowNBLLE DEFENDS RAILROADS.
George r. Brownelle, counsel for the
Erie Railroad, following Mr. Thorne, de-
clared that since the former hearing
facts and circumstances had arisen which
had materially changed the situation Of
the carriers, which would fully justify the
granting of the advance asked for
"The effect Of the European war on
the supply of capital available for in
vestment would be serious and Increase
the difficulty of the railroad companies
in securing the new capital necessary for
refunding, for improvements and for other
purposes" he said.
1t Is Obvious" MIR. Brownelle con-
cluded, that the railroad and trans
portation interests of the country lie at
the basis of our industrial and financial
fabric, and that unless those interests
can be made reasonably prosperous
through adequate revenue, their financial
necessities relieved and confidence In the
stability of their securities restored and
maintained no permanent relief from ex-
listing conditions can be expected.
I'VE hope and believe that upon all the
facts which the whole record now con-
tains the Commission will find that the
proposed rates are no more than just
and reasonable and allow them to become
effective"
The Commission adjourned for consid-
Grafton of the case. 1t Is probable that a
decision will be reached by the latter
part of November.
