NEW NEVADA RAILROAD.
RATES UNREASONABLE.
AND RETARD Progress

The Nevada public service com
mission is in receipt of advice that
he Interstate commerce commission
has advanced intrastate rates and
hres between points in Nevada
covering Nevada's domestic com,
merce-the same percentage as or
dered effective August 26, 1920, in
u parte "a, for inerstate traffic, ex-
reDting rates on ore and milk and
cream, to become effective on or
before April 2S. When seen Tuesday
afternoon, Chairman J. F. Shaugh-
messy said
This will increase our freight
rates 25 per cent except on ores,
milk and cream; our passenger fares
20 per cent and our Pullman fares
50 per cent as surcharge to go
10 the railroads. In other words,
passenger fares on trunk line rail
ways between points in Nevada will
rise to AS cents, cents, cents and
z cents per mile on main and
branch lines, and no excursion or
scrip books are provided for. On
the other hand, the fare in practi-
cally all other states is but 3.6 cents
per mile, including Wyoming, Idaho,
Montana. Washington and Oregon. |
Further, for a nights sleep where |
the present Pullman berth rate Is |
n5Q 1t will for the future be 1915. |
The effect of the increased rates
md fares, il permitted to stand as
hwizontally applied, will be to place
upon the people of Nevada an undue
burden; they will retard the states
opportunity for thorough-going de.
dry up traffic to an ex.
tent which may result in a diminu-
ton Of railroad revenues rather
han tend to an increase, and so
deadlock business generally as to
cause (. further serious loss in the
