MAY THROW r. R. PROB
LENS BACK ON ONGREss

Washington, Dec. 2S.-Fear that
the railroad problem will be thrown
back into congress is becoming ap-
parent among legislators and railroad
men. The earnings of the roads dur
ing September and October fell a to-
tai of $49,000,0OO short of the six per
cent earnings guaranteed by the Esch-
Cummings law. Railway executives
declare they will not raise the rates,
but Representative Esch declared it
is mandatory on the interstate COM
merce commission to raise the rates
or else have the government pay the
deficit. The payment of nearly half
billion due the roads of the amount
of the deficit for the first six months
of private operation. is being held up
by technicalities. The roads need the
money, they declare. Seventeen states
refused to allow the interstate rates
to go as high as the interstate COM
mission tried to fix them. The fourth
question is the labor one. The work
ers claim the roads are not practic-
ing economy.
