Increased Railroad Rates
 Raise Transportation And Freight Taxes $6O, ,OOO, O,OOO

$1S,700,000 on passenger and S3,5OO- 900 on Pullman charges.
 Another source of revenue would be from income taxes against railroad corporations. Railroad executives eX- pect many carriers to earn sufficient ly large returns under the new rates to compel payment of income taxes for the first time since pre-war days. It is from this source that the treas ury expects to obtain a large portion Of the remaining S40000,0OO of their s1O0,000,000 estimate. Officials place the amount from income tax conserv- atively at $30000,000 a year.
 The wage award of s6OO,OOO,O 900 a year will produce a certain return to the government for it places most railroad employees under the income tax laws. Amounts levied on most workers will be small, but. it was pointed out railroad employees num- Der more than 2,000,0OO. From this number, officials believed the taxes would aggregate ''pFobaly $10,000, ,000."
 Officials also are studying the indi- rect effect the rate increases will have on revenue produced by the eI- else and miscellaneos taxes.

 to Poland
LAssoeiafed Press Leased Wiye)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-With the desperate plight Of Poland empha- sized in dispatches foreshadowing the imminent fall of Warsaw and tell ing of the proclamation in Polish districts of a Soviet government, the position of the United States toward the swift development of events in Europe today engaged the serious consideration of government off cials.
 Refuses Moral Support
 Despite reiterated appeals to the United States by Poland for exten- sion of moral if not material aid, there has been no disposition shown among officials to reflect a depart ure of the United States of it's neu- tral position.
 Officials have held that inas-
 much as the conflict originated
 from causes to which the United
 States was not a party, this coun-
 try should continue it's present
 position. Whether the United
 States might be moved to depart
 from this position in the event
 of anything approaching crisis
 in the relations of Russia toward
 Europe officials refrsinsa teddy
 from indicating.
 On one occasion at least, it was re- called. this country was moved to take hand for Poland in insisting that Czecho-Slovakia impose no ob- stacles to transportation through her territory of supplies destined for Po- land This action, however, was de- tended on the grounds that the SUD- plies were purchased from this coun- try by Poland prior to the outbreak of hostIlities with Russia.
 Latest information as to military operations received by the depart ment indicated that Bialystok, north east of Warsaw, has been lost.
 The Red army was reported to have passed Bransk, southwest Of Bialystok.
