q Factor
PROM Q s.ar cOrrespondsnt

LANSING. Mich. April s.-The
fate OF the bin providing increased
rates OF passenger fare on Michigan
railways viii be decided. insofar as
the senate Is concerned. today.
The bill viii be taken UP for dis
cussion and consideration in the up
per house AZ O'Clock this after
noon and. rather than risk putting
so important a matter 10 vote on
Friday. when many members would
be absent. Senator Walter Taylor.
OF Kalamazoo. chairman OF the rail
road committee. announced that he
would move to suspend the rules
and put the bill on its immediate
passage.
The bill provides for three rates
OF fare on Michigan railroads. Roads
with gross earnings OF $4,000 or
more per mile must remain on
two-cent fare basis: those with
earnings below $1,000 per mile may
charge two and one-half cents per
mile. and those earning less than
$500 per mile may impose three
cent rate.
Responding to q resolution intro
duced by Senator Robert Walter. OF
Traverse City. the senate railway
committee yesterday afternoon pre-
sented a digest OF the information
which led up 20 the favorable re
port on the graded fare bill.
Easing their argument on the de
cision Of the United States supreme
court in the West Virginia rate
cases. the members Of the commit
tee declared that the question OF
over-capitalizatiou did not enter into
the present consideration. the sole
question being. "Are the railroads
earning an adequate return on their
investment
The graded fare bill. as IL was re
ported by committee, they said.
would provide an increase OF ap-
proximately six per cent on rail
way earnings in Michigan. OF this
amount the Pere Marquette would
receive the most. its share being es-
timated at sll31.7s3.23. The com.
mittee expressed the opinion that
both the Pere Marquette and Ann
Arbor railways would come above
the $1,000 earnings mark after a
few years OF increased fares. Be

crease allowed the roads VIII come
