+ WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-There is
growing doubt among both republi-
cans and democrats here that Her
bert Hoover will be one of the mem

three portfolios, the state, interior
and the commerce departments.
No republican will speak for publica-

discourteous for them to do so, but
it was learned in authoritative quar-
tiers there are two reasons why Hoov-

One reason is navy republicans are
known to be opposed to Hoover and
another is said to be that Hoover him

I WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. g
Railroads of the country will show net

ties, as was intended by the Interstate
commerce commission in approving in
creased freight and passenger rates,
the earnings for September should to-
tai about S109,000,O0O. +
The total operating revenue of the
$50 roads shows an increase of APP
proximately Is per cent over the oper-
ating revenue of September, 1919. The
freight rates increases averaged 35 per
cent, while passenger fare increases
amounted to 20 per cent.
Operating expenses for the month of
September increased approximately %
per cent over those of September
1919, and the net operating income in
creased about per cent.
The western railroads show an in
crease in total revenue of approx
maLely 10 per cent over september
1919 the lowest increase in any of the
districts. Operating expenses increas-
ed about "a per cent and the net OPP
Grating income decreased about per
cent.
The roads in the eastern district
show an increase in total operating
revenues Of about 80 per cent over
September, 1919. Operating expenses
increased about 81 per cent. The net
operating income increased about rs
per cent.
The railroads in the southern dis
trict made the best showing, the in
crease in total operating revenues for
September over September, 1919, being
2450 per cent. Operating expenses
increased 22.77 per cent. The increase
in net operating income is estimated
at II per cent.
The complete returns from all Of the
1877 railroads are not expected to
change these estimates materially.
October is expected to furnish bet
ter showing on the exact effect Of the
new rates, all the traffic moved during
that month being carried at the ,ad-
vanced charges.
