EXPRESS COMPANIES
ASK ANOTHER INCREASE
OF PER CENT IN RATES

Washington. Sept. 1S.-Application
for another ten percent increase in
express rates has been made by the
american railway express company
to Director General McAdoo, who
now has the proposal under consider
alton. The consolidated express
company specifically asks to apply a
fiat increase of ten, cents per l 20
pounds to existing commodity rates
and to advance first class rates about
16 cents and second class rates p
cents pc 100 pounds.
The new scales would add to the
company's annual revenue s24.000,00o
a year, and since tn in ;reases would
be fixed amounts without regard to
distance, most Of the burden-prob-
ably $4,000, 000-would fall on short
