Harry Wheeler Suggests a
Plan of Settling Much Dis
cussed Future of the Rail
roads.
Especial United Press Wires. J


Washington, July ID. Harry
Wheeler. representing the National
Transportation conference, placed
before congress comprehensive plan
for solving the railroad problem, in
cluding: Return of the railroads to
private ownership as soon as reme-
dial legislation is enacted, consolida-
tion of the existing railroads into
strong competitive system, require
all Interstate carriers to submit as
corporations to federal jurisdiction
and give the interstate commerce
commission additional powers over
rates. Wheeler testified before the
house interstate and foreign COM
merce conference.
He recommended exclusive federal
regulation of capital expenditures,
security issues of all interstate car
riers, enactment of statuary rule of
rate making, designed to yield the
roads a return of six per cent on the
aggregate fair values of their proper
ties, creation of two contingent funds
an individual railroad fund estab-
lished by each road to support its
own credits and a general railroad
fund, maintained by contribution
from all prosperous roads. All eS-
cess of the general railroad contin-
gent fund above $3.50, 100000. to be
used for general development of the
cOnntry,s transportation system.
The adjustment of wages and
working conditions would be in the
hands of boards consisting of an
equal number of employees and rail-
road officials. with the transporta-
tion board as referee.
