! Chicago, March 30.--Testimony that
the western railroads have in the last
! five years earned more revenue than
ever before in theft history, was Of
fered at the Interstate Commerce
commission hearing today of the for
! ty-one western roads pctitioning for
higher rates on certain commodities.
Appearing in opposition to the rail-
roads plea that they be permitted to
charge rates that will yield them at
least $l0000,000 year more revenue
Wayne Ellis, statstiean of the Iowa
railroad commission, asserted that the
railroads, judged by statistics which
he compiled, were prosperous.
Get Better Revenues.
Their net revenues for the last five
years have been greater than ever be-
fore" said Mr. Ellis. Compared with
1900 the last five-year period showed
net increase of IS per cent Less
taxes, the total net shows a CORE
spending increase The railroads
claim that operating expenses have
increased at greater rate than net
revenue but this is true only of the
last five years. The cause Of this is
that the railroads have charged 10
operating expenses large amounts in
connection with additions and better
ments. The western roads are being
improved from operating expenses
Maintenance Expenses.
1T is also significant that the total
maintenance expenses per mile Of line
in the western district were greater in
both 1913 and 1914 than 1910, and in
1914 the gross revenues were reduced
by 4 per cent, as compared to 1913
but the maintenance charges were re-
duced only one-sixth of per cent,
and the maintenance of equipment
was actually increased"
The witness asserted that the rail-
roads were now paying more divi-
dends than ever before and that the
rate at which they were able to Dor
row money compared faVorably with
the rate which industrials had to pay

who appeared as an agricultural eN-

You seem to think there is bad

railroads. ...
You can put your own interpreta-

fA'Your theory is that the bigger the
crop the worse off is the farmer?"
THAT is the effect. The farmer is
not getting enough for his crop
In other words the cost Of living
ought to be increased to those who
buy farm products so as to increase
the prosperity of the farmer-that
would apply to other industries
would it note" .-..
Perhaps" said Mr. Wallace.
