Describing the operations Of G. u

Raw sugar was purchased in C,ba
oy Mlnford, Leuder & Co., who entered
lnto contract with the Pennsylvania
heIhlng Company to refine the sugar

Inc total cost after refining and Other

+ yrsr The Trsbanes Washington Bureau
h WASHINGTON, May 4.-The rail
-,sds of the country submitted to the
Interstate Commerce Commission to-
d.v statements showing the amount OF
additional revenues-more than bill
.;aa dollars a year-needed to meet in
leased operations cost, and to adjust
sbeir income to the per cent income
basis provided n the new transporta-
ton act.
basis of operating expenses due to
lirher wages and increased prices Of
material and fuel has advanced about
100 per cent, their revenue basis has
Increased less than 40 per cent and
that it will require now TO restore the
relation between revenues and ex-
penses an increase of 20 per cent.
The railroads suggest to the COM
snission that the additional revenue be
gsined from freight traffic, leaving
passenger rates at the present level.
tn provide these increases to total
revenues without disturbing passenger
rates the carriers estimate they will
require an average increase in freight
rates Of about 2S per cent.
Sectional Increases Needed
- Railroads in Eastern territory esti-
rate the need Of an increase in all
revenues Of 2i1 per cent or 30.4 per
cent in freight rates. Southern rail-
roads propose to advance freight rates
ty 500 per cent to provide 20.7 per
cent larger revenues. The needed
lreight advance in the West is put at
2S.9 per cent to increase all revenues
BY IT per cent, The greater needed ad-
,ances east Of the Mississippi, the car
riers show. are largely due to the
Standardization OF railroad wages and
working conditions effected during the
war The tariff advances proposed
would WELD increased revenues of ST.
OF .0OOO 600 year.
The carriers show that their net in
come in 1919 was S1.056. 100000, and
that in 1919 it fell to $4,000, 900, not
withstanding an increased investment
in these three years Of more than
s2000O0000 900. But, the carriers point
cut, if the present level of costs had
Jeen in operation throughout 1919 the
ssaars net would have been only $220.-

eslt on their property investment of
