RETURN OF rail-
Lines TO BRING
RATE INCREASE
|. c. c. Member Says No Man
Can Predict Apex-Will
Cause Prices to Go Up.
ADDRESSES BANKERS

OLD POINT COMFORT, Va, June
19.-The return of the railroads to
private operation during the readjust-
ment period would occasion the ne
cessity of increased freight rates
which would cause a rise in prices in
this country, the apex of which no
man could predict. Robert NJ. Wool
ley, member of the Interstate Com
merce commission declared in an adj
dress before the Virginia Bankers
Association today.
Owing to reduced railroad reve-
nues and other conditions, Woolley
said, the commission will be forced
to grant increased rates if the roads
are returned to private hands to per
init them a fair revenue.
