Among the charges preferred AGAINST
Speer by Alexander are these:
That the returns made by the indi-
vidual collectors of internal revenue
have not been properly examined at the
treasury department.
That the assessments of tax on the
face of returns made by individuals
were not worked out on scientific or
practical lines Failure to do so mas
resulted in a tremendous loss to the
government.
That the field forces have not been
directed in such way as to obtain the
best results.
That many firms and individuals
have been favored particularly by the
field forces. in special Investigations
1t is said in behalf of Speer that the
time allowed for the assessment WORK
last spring was too short to handle IL

under existing conditions. The field
force, it is pointed out, was put to WORK

PASSENGER FARES UP
Central Traffic Association Lines In
crease Interstate Rates to 21a Cents
Per Mile. on Suggestion of Commerce
Commission.

Chicago, Now S.-The Interstate
commerce commission handed down
decision in July advising the railroads
to look to their passenger tariffs fer
increasing their revenues rather than
to changes in freight rates.
The commission pointed out that the
passenger business was unremunerative
and that reports showed an actual loss
to the carriers for twenty five years.
The railroads in Central Passenger
Association territory yesterday gave
their answer to the commission by fill
ing advances in Interstate fares which
will put the charges on > y cent per
mile basis.
The new rates are to become effective
Dec. and affect all railrods operating
in the territory north of the Potomac
river, east OF the Mississippi river, and
west OF Buffalo, Pittsburgh. and Wheel
ing.
Public Given Thirty Days.
The public is given a thirty day Pc
riod to file complaints or to ask for a
suspension OF the rates and investiga-
7ion. While there is q possibility OF
some such action the railroads feel the
commission would refuse to suspend
the rates because of their statement in
the recent freight rate advance case.
The new rates, as filed with the COM
mission. show an attempt TO put the
tariffs in Central Passenger Associa-
ton territory on an even basis of 22
cents per mile as substitute for the
present system Of charges, which range
from cents per mile to ~ cents. The
increases will add more than 81. 100000
to railroad revenues annually. it IS
estimated.
The new rates do not change in any
way the rates now effective between
points within a particular state.
No changes have Yet been filed for
increases in rates between the Central
Passenger Association territory and the
trunk line territory, including the
points east Of Buffalo. The rate be-
tween New York and Chicago, which
falls under this heading. probably will
be increased from $40 and $21, effective
on Dec. Is.
The passenger fares west of the Mis-
sissippi river are not likely TO be in
creased within the next few months.
