COMMODITY RATE ADVANCES
PROPOSED BY THE RAILROADS

WASHINGTON. Oct. i7.--t:ast"rn
railroads ar preparing I" rIac" before
the Interstate Commerce commission a
program to provide general relief IRON!
their financial difficulties. Executives
"t the roads so notified the commission
today when they appeared in connect" n
with proposed Increased rates on Il long
list OF commodities not Included III TN"
raise granted in the - per cent rat" ad-
vance case last June.
What form the railroads. program will
tax. was not disclosed. although 1t was
broadly inttmated that the commission
would be asked TO authorize Il general
rate advance.
Notification Of the roads' intention
was Incidental to a conference among
the commission. the roads, : Shippers.
state railway commissioners and other
interested parties At which the QucS-
ton OF specific advances was taken up.
The broad features of the whole rate
revision program remained in the back
ground. Discussion conferred almost
wholly on the technicaliticS OF proccdur"
involved in obtaining what the roads
characterized Us temporary relief.
This temporary relief. the commission
was told. was desired in the form OF in
creased rates on long list of comnodi-
-.
dressed meats. petroleum. grain and
grain products. sand. stone. cement and
copper. The proposed increases would
apply TO traffic east OF the Mississippi and
north OF the Ohio river. The would not
affect. except indirectly and by COM
bination. rates in other sections OF the
country.
IT is the opinion OF the gentlemen I
represent" said George Stuart Pattcr-
son. spokesman for the roads, that any
relief which will be- secured for per-
permitting increases In rates on these
commodities will be only temporary re-
lief. and that 1t is only a QUESTION OF a
short time when the needs Of the east
ern carriers will be brought to the at
tention of the commission in a much
more general and more specific way than
is contemplated In these particular tar
IFS"
After the commission disposed last
June Of the IS per cent case the TAll-
roads in many instances promptly Med
Individual tariffs proposing Virtually the
same increases that had been denied.
The docket has mary such applications
and a number of the proposed tariffs
are under suspension.
Chairman Hall OF the commission Sug-
ecstcd at the close OF the hearing that
the roads notify the commission for
mally of what they desire in the way or
temporary increases. and said that the
commission would confer over methods
OF procedure suggested by the roads and
communicates it's decision To the carriers.
Representatives of shippers asked that
they also be notified Of further develop
ments in the case. Chairman Hall told
them Il would be done.

CREDIT FOR SYRIANS :.
IN LOAN CAMPAIGN
Chairman of Committee Says They Will
Subscribe More Per Person Than
ANY Other Nationality

The SrrianS uf the city arc determined
to let no other nationality Surpass them
in their subscriptions to the lIlhcrtE
Loan. Charles Amicu. chairman OF the
Syrian committee, IN letter sent 10
InrnJ urwsnaprrs yesterday. points out
tina, there arc only about five hundred
Syrian families in the city and that
practically every adult. Syrian has al-
ready purchased bond. many OF them
having subscribed heavily to the hrst
issue.
II became known Yesterday that Mr..
amirn's son. James. aged .. hns sub
scr,brd for n $50 bond and expects 10.
pay for il by selling newspapers
Mr. Amicn's letter follows:
Editor. The Intelligcn"rr.
Sir:
IT note by one of the local papers
that the Greeks had raised more money
for the Liberty Loan Bond that any
other Americans of foreign nationality.
Perhaps they have in the sum total th"t
has been raised by them. hut then I'M
dcrStand that there are about five thous-
and Greeks in this city. ana many OF
them arr business men. While the
papers are giving credit why not give.
credit L. the people who have come from
SYRIA. There are only about five huns
drcd Syrian families in the city. and
they are mostly employed in the mills
and factories about the town. Not only
have they been compelled for the past
three years tn send thousands OF dollars
to their poverty stricken and Turk
cursed relatives in Syria but up to date
they have raised more money per capita
than any other people of foreign birth
In the city. There Is hardly an adult
Syrian in tho city who has not puT-
chased q bond.
I'VE are going to make an effort to
see that nj the end Of the campaign the
Syrinns vii! have raised more money
FOR Uncle Sam in this bond campa gn.
per person. than even tho native Amor
leans"
