Plan For Consolidation Worked
Out by Representatives of

Plan to be Under Indefinite Dis
cussion as Mutual Consent
Required for Operation
COMPETITION RETAINED

washington, Sept 2S.-The Inter-
state Commerce commission announced
today tentative plans for the CONSOLE
dation of all major railroads of the
United States into 19syatems and gave
notice that hearings would be called
on the project in the near future. The
proposed consolidation vas authorized
ny the transportation act.
In the main the plan prOpOsed by
the commission is tina. drafted under
it's direction by Professor William Rim.
Jey, Harvard university, but some var
lauOns were made. The commission
said that while all of the larger class
railroads had been included in the
makeup of it's schedule number OF
class 2 and class 3 lines had also been
covered.
The commissions proposed 19 sys-
TENS provide for retention of the COM
petitive arrangement of transporta-
tion lines, giving most sections of the
country access to two or more of the
great routes devised.
Hitch Up Systems.
The principle followed in making up
the consolidation was that Of hitching
weaker and less profitable roads to
more prosperous competitors for con-
nections. -.....
1t is expected that the plan with
alternative arrangements which the
commission has suggested will be un,-
der consideration and argument for a
prolonged period since permission Of
the commission and consent of the
railroads is required to every detail
before it can be put into operation.
