rate expert of the Nebraska railroad
commission. was subjected TO pro-
longed discrimination at the Inter
state Commerce commission hearing
of the western freight rate case today.
He appeared In opposition to the for
ty-one western roads petition for in
creased freight rates on certain COM
modities. These increases, the rail-
roads say, are necessary to eaualize
rates and to increase their revenues
in order TO maintain their properties
Mr.. Powell presented figures In
tended to show the roads were gener-
ally prosperous and that they aver
aged in earnings more than 6 per
cent. Certain OF the roads which
would participate In the increase, If
granted. he said, were accommodating
SURPRISES.
"As an expert Of the Nebraska COM
mission haven't you always opposed
Increases in freight rates." asked C..
C.. Wright, general counsel for the
railroads.
Il can't say that ! have always OPP
posed them. The commission in
structed me to get the facts said Mr..
Powell
You have always been on the OPP
posing side, haven't you?'
Yes"
The witness said that in arriving at
his figures he had not had time to
consider all the roads involved, but
he had taken q representative list, he
thought of the strong and the weak
ones Among the strong ones he in
cluded the Chicago, Burlington and
quincy Atehison, Topeka and Santa
Fe, the Sunset lines Of the Southern
Pacific, the Chicago, st. Paul, Mime
apolis and Omaha, and the Chicago,
Milwaukee and st. Paul. He included
the Kansas City Southern among the
weaker ones.
The contention OF the railroads was
that Mr.. Powell's figures showing a
prosperous condition were based on
majority of the stronger roads, rep
resentin 1900 miles. while the ones
he called weak represented only H.
600 miles.
you call the Kansas City Southern

ings are $4,000 a mile, among the
