LANSING. Mich, Jan. lS.--Although
a majority OF the members OF the leg
islafure appear to be willing TO do
anything within reason--even to rails
ing rates OF passenger fares-to aid
the Pere Marquette railroad, strong
opposition has already developed 10
the all-too-apparent plan to use the
p. M. as the opening wedge to pro-
cure the repeal OF the present Two
cent fare law. ).
The general belief, and, indeed, II

OF Michigan.
No attempt to bring about a gen
eral increase in fares can be success
ful That much is certain.
Several plans making 1t possible TO
take care OF the Pere Marquette nave
been advanced by members OF potn
houses. but the one apparently most
feasible. is that OF Senator Louis IL
Kelley. OF Farwell.
Senator Kelley's idea Is 10 pass a
law basing rates OF fare In Michigan
ON the earnings per mile OF the vari-
ous systems. sworn statements 10 De

Tbis system, he says, would protect
struggling roads by allowing rate In
creases to them, while denying them
TO through roads having volume OF
tra ft,c sufficient TO show a profit at
the lower rate.
Senator Kelley pointed out that
even before the present law Was
passed the Grand Trunk. Michigan
Central and one or two others OF the
larger roads. were forced to carry pas
seneers at rate of two cents per
mile the rate being based on their
comparative passenger earnings.
A hill such as the one he proposes
he said. could be put into operation
without added expense 10 the state,
the entire matter OF administration oil
the law being vested In the state rail-
road commission with which the
sworn statements would be filed and
which, when earnings went below 2
certain figure, might grant authorlty
TO charge higher fares.
Some such bill will undoubtedly DC

houses as the only reasonable solu
