RAIL ADVANCE:
3 CENTS TO RIDE
McAdoo to Announce In
crease, Forced by Boost
in Wages, Next Week

Washington, May 25.-A huge in
crease in railroad freight rates and
passenger fares is to be announced
by Director General of Railroads
McAdoo early next week, almost
coincident with announcement OF
wage increases granted all railway
employees receiving less than $3.50 a
month.
The wage increases to be granted
will aggregate $500, 100000 and pos
sibly more. The freight rate and pas
senger fare increases are to be made
on a basis of return which will not
only absorb this wage increase, but
heavy expenditures for locomotives
and cars that may run 10 5000, 000,-
600.
Advance Totals. $500 100000
This means rat anr fare advances
aggregating half million dollars.
In the % per cent case the railroads
received about $6O,OO0,O00 from the
so-called 5 per cent advance. 1t ap-
piled, however, only in Eastern ter
ritory, and principally on commodity
rates.
There is little doubt passenger
fares will be increased to cents a
mile, and perhaps 3h cents a mile.
At present the mileage basis is II
cents a mile. Glass freight rates
are expected to bear the brunt of the
increase. These rates apply largely
on Manufactured articles that go in
less than carload shipments. They
necessitate greater service than coal,
ores and other heavy commodities.
Though some rates will be in
creased more than others, in a level
ing deemed advisable from the eX-
perience of the Interstate Commerce
Commission in rate making, it is
not likely that single commodity or
article will escape.
Under the railroad control act
President Wilson has full power to
fix and review rates. This power
has been delegated to Director Gen
eral of Railroads McAdoo. All rates
made are subject to review by the
Interstate Commerce Commission if
protest is filed. but with the Govern
ment as arbiter of the rates it is
fixing, there is little possibility of
any reduction.
With the Government guarantee
ing returns to the railroads under
Government operation it is essential
that increased charges put on by
such operation be met They must
be paid either through rate returns
or from the Treasury, as railroad
earnings are guaranteed.
1t is Director McAdoos
view that the persons and business
interests getting the service should
bear the burden, even though it will
be distributed to the people.
