SMALL EARNINGS DUE
 TO COSTLY SHORT HALLS

Washington, Dec 15.-Costly short hauls combined with many shipments of small lots of manufactured goods were attributed by representatives of the New England railroads in testimony be- fore the interstate commerce commission today to the inability of the carriers fh that section to earn during the past fis- cal year more than 1.U4 per cent. on their invested capital
 The testimony of the carriers was presented to the commission at it's initial hearing on the request of the New Eng land railroads for a readjustment of the division of freight rates on through traffic between those roads east and those west of the Hudson river. Appli- cation for the readjustment recently was filed by the Bangor and Aroostock rail road, acting in behalf of the New York, l New Haven and Hartford, the Vermont l Central, the Boston and Maine. the Cen tral New England. the Maine Central and l the Rutland railroads.
 l W. J. Cunningham, a statistical expert l told the commission that at the request 1 of the New York, New Haven and Hart l ford, he had made a thorough study of the economic problems of freight ship I ments in New England and had found that the compactnesS ot Ihe territory and l the close proximity of the stations had
 made the money costs of freight trans portation great deal higher than ir l other parts of the east.
 1 Charles F. C..oate, of Boston, counse for tie carriers, presented statistics tc l show that three-fifths' of the entire l freight shipments in New England wer, l interclls nges between points in that re, 1 gior. He said that in the last fiscal 1 year tie business of the roads amounted to $54, ,UU0,OJJ and of this amount, S34, 100000 was. on interchanged shipments.
 MT. ChItte further asserted that tn
 1.D4 per ce7it. earning last year on tn
 total investment of $S3S.274,76S of tn
 New England roads should be sufficien
 evidence that the loss was mainly Gu
 to unfair adjustment of divisions for in terchanged freight with other trunk line l and urged that new ratio be decide by the commission

New York. Dec. 15.-The Bethlehem Steel Corporation will refuse to sell fab ricated steel to builders and contractors in the New York and Philadelphia dis trscts to be erected on union shop basis. This policy was disclosed by Eugene c. Grace, president of the corporation, who testified today before the joint legislative committee investigating the alleged building trust" replying to charges that his concern was sponsoring the "open shop" movement by withholding steel from builders employing union E1en.
 T think 1t is a proper thing to pro- tect the open shop principle" declared Mir Grace who explained that his stand would not be changed even if building operations in New York were to be sus- pended because steel could not be ob- fainod by union erectors.
 whefhsr the corporation win extend it's policy to other parts of the country, the witness said depends entirely on what effect I should expect 1t to have on our general labor situation"
 The steel inagnate who was on the witness stand nearly an hour. was sub jecied 10 a severe grilling by Samuel Un- tcrlneyer. the committees counsel, who has stated that he is the largest stock holder in the Bethlehem corporation.
 Charging Mir. Grace with fencing and evading his questions. Mir. Untermeyer several times during the examination sprealed to Senator Carson. acting chair man of the committee, to order the wit ness Co answer his questions.
 "You are not in the office of the Beth iehen Steel corporation. you Are before a legislative committee" Mir. Untermeyer reminded the witness several times. add ing that 'the president must not have his own way an the time
 While his corpofation was a member of the National Steel Fabricators' Asso- ciation. Mir. Grace declared 1t had acted Independently of the association's "open shop" program and had not entered into any agreement with any other interests
 Asked if he believed the Bethlehem corporation big enough 10 carry out its open shop principle if every other stee company decided otherwise the witnes: replied that Is a matter of judgment"
 Denying that he had attempted to die tate to union builders as to how they shouid erect steel. Mir. Grace asserted T told them they cannot have our fabri caled steel"
 When the witness denied knowledge oi the movemsnt among fabricated stee manufacturers In the United States t withhold steel from union shop builders Mr. Untermeyer asked:
 Do you think 1t Is a proper thing fo manufacturers throughout the country t get together and to dictate to the build ITS in the different cities of the coun try whether or not they shall erect stee on union shop principles?'
 As 10 the question of getting togethe do not know" replied Mir. Grace. 9Th uuts.ion of whether 1t would be goo principle. I should say 1t would be"

and protect the open shop principle of giving service by any character of labor ing man in this country, Is very good thing"
 Now, can't you set what an arrogant and indefensble attitude it would be for the manufacturers of. this country to try and force their point of view of what you call the open shop in the erection of their steel when other people might be- lieve it was to their best interest to erect 1t by the union shop?" asked the com mittee's counsel
 "If they thought it was to protect their intereSs, in line with what they con sidered the right policy for their interest l would not consider it arrogant, but self protection" replied MT. Grace.
 The steel head admitted that the struc- tural iron workers union had not dis criminated against the non-union pro duct of the Bethlehem corporation, but said ''it may happen"
 Facts and expectations and delusions are different things" retorted MT. Un- | termeyer.
 Declaring he never liked the term collective bargaining, MT. Grace said he believed in system of employees rep resentation." He explained that tht Bethlehem employees elected their repre- sentatives to deal with the management of the company, fin all phases affectins lthe servlce rendered by them" and tha the plan is working very satisfactorily.
 If 95 per cent. of the men in you shops were union men they would no have anything more to say as uniol Imen?' asked MT. Untermeyer.
 "We only recognize them as employees, replied the witness
 During the examination of the stee head MT. Untemeyer told him that h
 disagreed with the corporations polio
 and methods and "hoped they woul
 change them.'
 Mr. Untermeyer said that if Charles N Schwab chairman of the directors of tn , Bethlehem corporation desired to appea , before the committee and make a state ment, they would be glad to hear him. Additional testimony was heard toda l by the committee from contractors show 5 ing that building costs had been increas
 ed by the action of the fabricated ste . manufacturers compelling builders to lt 7 ltheir steel erection contracts to member i of the National Erecto g. AssociationsS { : the Iron League of New York.
 Union structural steel workers als { testified they had been discriminate 1 against by the American Bridge con 9 pany, a subsidiary of the United Stat' . Steel corporation.
 The books and records of the Nation T Erectors' Association were taken over 0 the committee for examination and pr E cess servers were sent out to find Ca - tain Robert Foster, alleged head of u ] detectivs organization of the asisociatio
