Railroad Heads Say In
creased Cost Will Be Add
ed to Freight Rates.
BANKRUPTCY FEARED
FOR MANY CARRIERS
Boost in Cost of Living Is
Also Predicted as Result
of Higher Wages.

That the passage by Congress OF the
bill providing an eight-hour day for
railroad tranmen Will result in receiy-
erships for many Of the roads and
that it Will necessitate increased prices
for commodities and propel the already
+ high cost of living to new attitudes was
asserted yesterday by railroad officials.
"The eight-hour day would cost the
railroads of the country approximately
+ $50, 00C, 200 year." said Ira A. Place,
vice-president of the New York Central.
whatever is added to wages must be
added to the rates charged by the rail-
roads. Shippers will not pay increased
freight charges without collecting the
extra amount, directly or indirectly,
from the ultimate consumer. SO in the
end, the public will pay for the eight
hour day"
at might seem that the railroads of
the country collectively would be able
to withstand the strain of an extra
S5O,0OO,000 added to operating expense
said A. j. Stone, ice-president Of the
Erie Railroad, but il must pc remem-
bered that some of the roads are run
ming close to the deadline as IT is and
would be forced into receiverships If
called uDon 20 withstand an. extra eX-
pense. Those railroads which are earn
ing fair return for their stockholders
will have to pay the S5O.00O,0O0 out of
earnings. and the stockholders will go
short unless rates are increased by the
roads Any increase in railroad charges
would come out Of the consumers
pocket
AS it has come to pass that railways
in the United States cannot receive
more for their services than the eX
pense of performing such services and
reasonable return on the value of
their property. it follows that any ex-
ira expense must come from the travel
ling and shipping public" aid l.. +.
Loree, president of the Delaware
Hudson Railroad, testifying recently
before the Senate Committee on Inter-
state Commerce.
This makes it apparent that the
present proposition is in fact one TO
increase the cost Of living of the great
multitude of Americans who have in
comes lower than those received by
railway trainmen in order to increase
these higher incomes. If Increases in
wages should be granted. and there
should be no adjustment of freight
rates. or an Inadequate adjustment, the
loss would fall upon investors; that is,
upon the frugal and the saving"
