PASSENGER FARE BILL
MIGHT BECOME LEGAL
Plan to Report Measure Out to
be Passed by Senate-IS
Sliding Scale.

LANSING. April 2.-That the slid
ing scale passenger fare bill agreed to
by the joint committee of the house
and senate Will be reported out and
passed by the legislature, is the opin-
ion of Sen. Taylor, chairman OF the
senate committee, and the leading
spirit among those who have demand
ed from the first that the legislature
be shown sufficient reason for the
authority to increase passenger fares.
The joint committee met informal
" Wednesday morning and consider
ed the two amendments suggested by
the Michigan Central counsel, Henry
NJ. Russell, and while no action was
agreed upon, the sense Of the two
committee was to ignore the sugges-
uons Of the Michigan Central and re-
port the ~easure in its original form.
The present plan as tacitly agreed
to by the committees is TO have the
measure come out in the senate and
pass that body before coming before
the Eouse The plan, which prob
ably will be adopted, is 10 report out
the sliding scale bill Thursday after
noon, with a recommendation that it
be passed, and that 1t be made a spe
cial order for Tuesday or Wednesday
of next week.
Rates Provided For.
This is the bill putting all roads
earning $4,000 gross per mile on a two
cent basis, establishing a two and
half cent rate on roads whose gross
earnings come between $500 and
$4,000 a mile. and all below that on
three cent rate.
Mr.. RusSells argument that the
Michigan Central was on the way to
receivership TO trot in double harness
with the Pere Marquette did not make
any profound impression on the COM
mittee apparently.
State Sen. Walter Taylor. the Kala-
mazOO man, who heads the senate
railway committee, for instance,
points out that there is a little road
running out of Bay City called the
Detroit, Bay City & Western. which
according to its reports earns only
about 800 per mile. And upon this
small passenger earnings it has been
able TO paw an annual dividend of six
per cent on it's investment.
Sen. Taylor says he cannot UNI
derstand how this little railway with
such modest equipment and limited
serving purely local traffic
and earning only 500 a mile, can
struggle along and pay a six per cent
dividend. while the Michigan Central
is threatened with a receivership with
a system that is earning a total OF
s 500 per mile in Michigan.
