In regard to the recent granting Of
increases to railway workers, the
Guaranty Trust Company says that
the increase in the price Of foods be-
cause of the railroad pay boost will
be so negligible as not to be noticed,
if any profiteers who use the increase
as an excuse for price jumps, says
New York dispatch.
"The new rates will go into effect
September 81. and the various rail
roads are now preparing the detailed
schedules under which the increases
will be applied. 1t is generally
agreed that bv its decision the COM
mission has given great impulse to
the process of REIMBURSEMENT in this
country, and it is regarded as es-
pecially significant for the light
which it throws upon the future at
titude of the commission toward its
greatly enlarged powers and response
bilities under the Transportation Act
of 1920. The business interests are
convinced that the policy Of thescom-
mission will lean to the constructive
side. In this the commission appears
likely to have a stronger public sup
port than heretofore because of the
experiment in government manage
ment and the widespread reaction to
tie prevailing lack If railroad equip
ment. tt has cost the people millions
in taxation, hut there seems no doubt
that wholesome lesson in the inn
portancq Of an efficient transporta-
ton system has been taught during
the last two years.
What the effect 81 the increased
rates on prices Of commodities will
be only the facts Of the future can
determine. Some of the railroads
themselves have undertaken to
show that there should be no large
increases and that in many cases the
increase In rates per pound or per
dozen or per quart win be so small
as to be practically incalculable Upon
this point Vice-President Dixon, Of.
Pennsylvania system, says:
"The public should be forewarned
and forearmed against any attempts
to take advantage Of the freight rate
advance for the purpose Of justify
ing profiteering. While it is true that
in the case Of some few articles and
commodities small increases in price
may be justified, nevertheless, the
amounts which in any instance could
fairly be added to the present prices
are very small fraction Of the whole
and in the case of practically every
article or commodity Of daily con-
sumption the increases in transpor-
tation charges are relatively so small
as to be practically negligible"
The National Security League
sums up its warning to the same,
effect with the following: I
"The $1,500,000,000 advance in
freight and passenger rates may
seem huge sum but when it is con-
sidered that this is not more than
two per cent. on the annual pro-
duction Of the farms, factories and
mines in the United States, a proper
perspective can be obtained of how
slightly the advance effects the cost
and price of any particular COM
modify"

Joe HUTCHINSON, aged about so
years, was struck and instantly
killed by No 2, fast Chicago passen-
ger train Thursday morning about
7:45 o'clock, just inside the south
yards of Covington. No. 3, the train
from Chicago, on account of heavy
traffic. was divided and run in two
sections. The second section Of this
train was due in CovingUon at the
same time as No. going north.
From accounts Of eye witnesses to
the accident, Hutuherson, who was
walking the tracks going north to
Covington, was on the southhound
track, and on the approach Of No. 8
going south, he crossed over to the
northbound track to allow This train
to pass. 1t is thought that The south
bound train made so much noise in
its approach that Hutcherson did not
hear the whistle of the northbound ,
train and was struck
HUTCHINSON was badly cut and
mangled. both legs being broken in
several places and his skull crushed.
He was dead when the train crew
reached him. The train was stopped
and Hutcherson's remains were placed
aboard and brought to Covington and
turned over to R. S. Maley's under
taking establishment to await word
from relatives for disposition.
FROM statements made by The train
craw on No. 2, the accident was I'M
avoidable, and that every effort was
made to stop the train, but owing to
the speed of the train this was i'm
possible in such short distance.
HUTCHINSON was born and reared
in Mississippi and came to this county
about two years ago This past year
he worked on Tom Parker's place on
the Mason road and boarded at
Parker's home.
Hutcherson is survived by one
brother, who lives in Arkansas, and
two sisters, who are residents Of
Memphis.
