HITCHCOCK SAYS
''H|TCHY KOO" HIT
HIS POCKETBOOK
Comedian Tells Bankruptcy
Referee of Pawning Gift
Watch for Girls Fares.

NEW YORK, July 30.-Raymond
Hitchcock. the comedian. who recent
ly filed a voluntary petition in bank
ruptcy, gave evidence yesterday in
support Of the claim that he was
broke.
He told Referee Townsend that the
frolicsome show "Hitchy Koo" caused
his downfall. leaving him with only
notes, pawn tickets and scenery. The
show begged down at Philadelphia, he
explained, and he had to pawn a
watch that Diamond Jim" Brady had
given him in order to buy railroad
tickets for the chorus girls.
The referee, seeking to learn of the
comedians assets, which he listed at
Sl25, asked about his town house, his
country place on Long Island and his
automobile. Mr.. Hitchcock said his
wife owned them all. He denied
newspaper reports that there had
been moonlight bathing parties at his
country place or aesthetic dancing in
the pink light OF dawn.
The actor declared his liabilities
were too numerous to mention within
two hours, so the case was adjourned
to August 20.

PRE-WAR BASIS IN
FREIGHT RATES IS
FORESEEN BY CUT
Producers of Farm Products
Who Forced Reduction on Z.
Export Grain Are Hopeful.
BY w. II. ATKINS.
International News Service.

Producers of farm products, by fore.
Ing voluntary agreement OF the rail.
roads to reduce export grain rates, to-
day had successfully opened up the
way for substantial reductions in
freight rates on staple commodities.
The shippers were confident that
sweeping cuts in domestic rates of inn
portant farm products will be author
lied.
Action of the rail executives in sane
uoning an application for a 25 per cent
cut on rates on export grain from
Great Lakes ports to the. seaboard,
over Eastern railroads. is expected to
be followed soon by similar measures
to re-adJust the rates on grain from
Central territory to seaboard points.
The reduction just agYed upon Of D
cents hundred pounds on wheat. corn
and rye, from Buffalo, Erie and Fair
port, to New York and other seaboard
destina tons. is expected to result in a
similar reduction from points in Cen
trail rail territory.
The shippers are preparing to ask
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to remove the 25 per cent advances
which went into effect last August in
Western territory on all domestic ship
ments Of important grain products,
and also to eliminate the 35 per cent
raise which was given the Pacific
group of railroads on practically all
commodities.
Western shippers contend there is no
longer any need to stifle business with
rates that are prohibitive in that the
cost realized on many important com
modittes will not pay the freight rates.
Practically all OF the large shippers
organizations of the West were said
at the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion today to be ready to appear before
the commission on August I 5 and urge
that the observation-disclosures which
were granted, under the railroads war
demand for more money, be rescinded,
and that the rates be restored to their
pre-war basis.
