Washington, d. c., June 1.-While

adjustment.
Walking into the offices of the inter

dent inquired of the commissioners
what they were doing toward relief
Of shippers who had found some of the
rates unreasonahly burdensomc. He
was assured that the subject was under
investigation and that the commission
hoped soon to effect broad revisiops
thru voluntary action OF the road.
Hauling charges for fruit products
over western roads were made speci-
fc example by MIR. Harding. He told
tho commissioners that he had received
many reports of dire distress among
western fruit growers because of the
high rates and asked whether the
changes might he expected soon. The
commissioners replied that the fruit
schedules wero receiving Informal con-
alteration.

CONGRESS TO GIVE RELIEF
President Active To Satisfy Himself That Revision Of
Rates Will Be Part Of Railway
Readusment

in duty bound to return the roads to
their owners in as good condition as
when they were taken over and de-
cIared that the president had power
to carry out the roads rehabilitation
proposal and thus put railway finances
once more on a sound foundation. He
summed up the rehabilitation plans
in this statement
My first suggestion Is the release oil
amounts due to the railroads for fed
eraI control but now held by the gall
road administration offsets to cap
ital expenditures made during federal
control. To fund all these capital OK
penditurea would. | estimate, release
and pay several hundreds of millions
OF current cash. due by the government
into the hands OF the railroads as
working capital and also to purchase
materials and supplies and meet other
obligations. THE present railroad re-
venues are not adequate to meet these
necessities.
My second suggestion Is that n
delay of three and oue-half years or
more in settling under maintenance
questions. for both the federal control
and guaranty periods, -be eliminated
by prompt decisions that would, in ef-
feet redeem the promise of the presi-
dent. the federal control act. and the

cation OF the circumstance surround
ins tho bomb explosion yesterday a,
the Aberdeen. Maryland. prorans
grounds which resulted in tho death
OF nve persons and injury Of ten 9TH
crs, was directed by Secretary Weeks
today in orders to Inspector General
Chamberlain.
Tho investigation will begin immcd
lately as will one to be conducted by
j. ". Wainwright. assistant secretary
Of war. Mr.. Wainwright left late to-
day or Aberdeen. Previously. General
williams. chief of ordnance. had dis
patched Major W. A. Borden and Cap
tain c. II. NJ. Roberts to the scene to
make an investigation and tho COM
marding officer at Aberdeen had ap-
pointed local inquiry board.
Major Borden brought the first de-
tails Of the disaster to the depart
ment today in an oral report. In ad-
vancinG a theory of tho cause of the
explosion. he said:
The plane had been loaded with
four bombs. That on Rack had
drorped from the rack once. An eN-
animation showed no apparent defect
and the bomb was replaced. 1t dropped
n second time.
Meanwhile tho motor had been
started and the airplanr was being
turned around. The blast from the
propeller started the propeller on the
bomb revolving. a certain number ot
revolutions of tho bombs propeller re-
leases a plunSer. Tho propeller had
apparently turned that point whom tho
tail skid-a piece of metal attached In
the tail of tho atrplsne, swung around
and struck tho bomb propeller. The
blow evidently was all that was re-
auired to drive the plunger into the
percussion cap attached to the fuse.
The propeller had apparently turned
to n point where the blow would have
released tho plunger. The explosion
followed"
safety devices on the other three
bombs prevented their dischsrgo. in
the opinion OF Major Borden.
