HIGHER RATES NEEDED
Further Advance In Freight Charges
to Offset Increased Expenditures
Durjno Federal Control

1t has been estimated in the financial
district that the total of new capital put
into the railroads Of the country since
they were taken over by President VIII
son in 1917 dmounts to some 81 $50.
100000. This is pointed to as one
of the reasons why corporate managers
Of the carriers have insisted that the
government reconsider the question of
further increase in freight rates to
offset the increased expenditures which
have occurred during federal control.
In 1917, when the standard return
was based upon earnings during the
test period of three years, it was equal
to approximately 5.22 per cent on total
capital investment in the carriers.
At the present rate earnings arc
running at less than 3 per cent on total
capital investment, and the feeling is
growing more general that the govern
ment should equalize income and ex
pendtures before the roads are turned
back to their owners.

BUSINESS NOTES

Dates Of the two remaining London
wool auctions have been changed, the
next series taking place from October
q to November Il. and the final series
from December ! to 10, according TO a
cablegram received by the Bureau of
Foreign and Domestic Commerce.
There is a heavy demand for crude
drugs, Drug and Chemical Markets will
say today. but few price changes have
taken place. This was partly due to
the effect on business of the Interrupt
tion,of the holiday. Mcnthol and cam
phor continue scarce and high, but a
further drop in quicksilver was re
ported.
National blouse week. which starts
on November 10. is being watched with
interest by factors outside that trade.
Chief among the people who regard the
success of this movement as n gauge TO
their own prospects are the manufac-
turers of suits.
While the demand for silk hosiery is
so far in excess of the supply that allot-
ments are being made by the mills on
