INCREASED FREIGHT
RATESARE REJECTED

The decision points out that the
carriers comparisons have been
made largely with those of 1916.
which was the banner year in rail-
road earnings and adds that the
1917 income might be considerably
diminished without necessarily indie
ating danger point in earnings.
Commissioner Harlan in a con-
curing statement declared that
should the next few months show
that the railroad mems fear were
well founded, the commission would
be ready to grant relief. He also
made a plea for better equipment
and service.
The commission found in general
that the effects of the Adamson s.
hour basic law and of the increased
cost of fuel, supplies and materials
had not affected the southern and
western carriers as greatly as 1t af-
fected the eastern carriers.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 3d.
The interstate commerce commission
yesterday denied the plea Of the
railroads of the United States for a
horizontal increase of fifteen per
cent in freight rates.
In its decision the commission in.
dicated willingness to increase class
rates in the eastern district approx
imately fourteen per cent. Since
about one-fourth of the freight hand
led Is moved under class rates, the
decision virtually allows the eastern
lines about four per cent increase
in gross freight revenue. Increases
sought in rates on coal, coke and
iron ore will be granted.
The commission found as a result
of extended hearings that the car
riers generally show a substantial
and increasing property and that
they have ample resources with
which to conduct transportation.
Little sympathy was given the ar
guments of the roads that they we're
victims of war prices, the commit
tee holding that the carriers have
profited by the mobilization of
troops.
The commission suspended the pro-
posed tariffs until October 2S, but
1t indicated that no rehearing of the
case will be of value at this time
and suggested cancellation of the
tariffs.
The committee finds that the
gloomy forecasts of ieopardized in
comes, seen by railroad officials
early in 1917 have not been borne
out by the figures available fol
later months.

Minor Economies

In his appeal to the people of the coun-
try the President observes that every
housewife who practises strict economy
puts herself in the ranks of those VINO
serve the nation" This truth has been I'M
pressed with growing intensity on all the
nations at war. 4 writer lately returned
from Germany has published a curious ac-
count Of the many petty economies OBJ
served at the dining tables Of the most
fashionable hotels of Berlin, but though IN
some particulars these are unique. 1t IS
certain that equivalent phenomena are not
uncommon in the chief towns of France
and England.
Frugality is no longer a matter OF per-
sonal discretion in Great Britain. Restric-
tons have already been imposed by order
in the hotels and restaurants, and meat
less and potatoless days are now generally
established. 1t has been estimated, by the
way. that the supply Of potatoes in the
country amounts to little more than eight
pounds head, and this must suffice until
the new crop is available.
To enforce economy in private homes is
more difficult, but the Food Controller has
lately circulated a paper by a physician
showing the public how they may save If
only they will. In the first place it IS
pointed out that three meals day are quite
enough for the average man. Afternoon
tea is too well established a ceremony IN
England to be abandoned voluntarily, but
it is intimated that bread and butter might
safely be omitted on that occasion. Among
many other suggestions the following are
offered:
Meat should be carefully carved and
served. There is no excuse at present for
anv food whatever being left on plate.
Except for an occasional roast JOINT the
best way of cooking meat is to stew IT, espe-
cially + the meat is fried first.
Bread or cake should b, cut on the table
according to the needs Of each person.
Fat left on dishes should be collected ana
melted in jar in the oven, passed hot
through muslin or a sieve and put IN the
oven again in a jar with little water Inc
clarified fat rises TO The top and may pe
used for pastry, puddings or frying.
Cabbage and potato left over, when fried
together in dripping, make an excellent dish.
So do potatoes, turnips and parsnlps when
boiled in stock
These are small savings, but if COM
monty observed by all they count for much
in the long run.
