GEORGIA RAILROADS
GET RATE INCREASES

ATLANTA, Dec. 20.-The decision
Of the Georgia Railroad Commission
zlanting substantial increases in the
freight rates to the railroads of this
state is considered by Atlanta ship
pers to be in line with the general
policy OF other state commissions as
well as the Interstate Commerce Com
mission in Washington, which has re-
Gently granted increased rates t.
practically all railroads in the coun
try on interstate traffic.
Mounting costs of operation, coup
led with the tremendous demands laid
upon the railroads by the war, have
made increased revenues absolutely
necessary in order to enable the rail-
roads to do their part in winning the
war Every one realizes the funda-
mental Importance of efficient and ad-
equate railroad transportation, from
President Wilson on down, and the
view taken by the Georgia Railroad
Commission comedies with that Of
other public service commissions
throughout the country.
One of the remarkable features Of
the war has been gradual increase
in freight rates in all the affected
countries, including those where the
transportation lines are owned by the
government The French govern
mont has recently proposed a general
increase Of Is per cent in its rail-
raods to meet the deficits for which
the government has assumed respon-
sibility Freight rates In Italy, Swift
erland, Russia, Norway, Holland, Aus
tria-Hungary, Prussia and many 9TH
or Eu opean countries have iqewise
been increased The war Is imposing
the greatest economic burden Of his
terry upon all civilized countries, and
tho railroads cannot escape the con-
sequences.
