R.R. RATE: RISE DENIEDBY
 4. |. |.

PHOENIX, Oct. 25.-The Arizona Corporation commission today issued .an order denying the application re- gently made by the railroads operat- ing in Arizona for an increase in intra-state freight rates. passenger land pullman fares and milk and bag gage rates. The railroads sought to obtain increases in rates within the state corresponding to the increased rates on interstate shipments grant cd by the Interstate Commerce Com mission.
 In only six states it was sad, have the railroads been denied such intra- state rate increases on applications In these cases, the practice has been to appeal to the Interstate Commerce Commission to order the higher in tra-state rates in effect over the or der of state commissions, officials said. adding that one such case was being threshed out in federal court.
 Hearing on the railroads applica- ton was held before the state cor poration commission here September IS. Commissioner F. A. Jones stat cd today the railroads had made no showing justifying the application as required by constitutional and statu tory law.
 "W1e had no option in the matter" said Commissioner Jones. Tn our opinion after reviewing the testimony of some Is representatives of the largest shipping industries in the state 25 per cent increase in rates particularly on ore would prohibit the movement of ore and force the closing down of many mines in the state"
 The railroads asked for a g per cent increase in freight rates, 20 per cent in passenger fares, 50 per cent pullman fare surchargc and 20 per cent increase in rates on milk and excess baggage The order today was still in the hands of the printer and was not expected 10 be formally iesued until Wednesday.

PRESIDENT OF COUNCIL IN AUTHORIZED INTERVIEW ON
 IMPORTANCE OF COVENANT

BRUSSELS, Oct. 25.-Leon Bour- geois, president of the council of the League oi Nations gave his views Ito American newspaper correspon- dents last night on Article X of the covenant of the League of Nations.
 Today the following authorized
 statement regarding the interviews
 was issued through NJ. Comcrt, the
 principal press official of the
 League of Nations who had origin
 ally arranged the interview;
 M Bourgeois to the American correspondents last night said he had
 been astonished to see the political discussion in America centered
 around Article X of the covenant. Article x is not in fact anything more than the moral foundation of the covenant All that is efficacious in the covenant IS set forth in other articles indicating penalties and sane tions."
 NJ. Bourgeois in the course of his statement to the correspondents Sunday night said that Article X could be eliminated without in any way modifying the effectiveness of the League of Nations and declared also that it was not considered so by Europeans as Ameri- cans At the close of the interview and after AE Bourgeois had with drawn the question was raised among the American correspondents as to the effect of his utterances on the presidential election in the United States. It was thereupon agreed to withhold the statement until NJ. could review it in this light and give his authority for its publication. M Comert informed the correspondents this morning that he had explained to NJ. Bourgeois the importance of the remarks and him to say whether he in tended them to be published in the United States. NJ. Bourgeois re- piled, M. Comert said that he under stood the importance of what he was saying and was quite willing the should be printed.
