One feature of the plan which has
been worked out by the commission is
the fact that lines which operate thru
Kansas and which do not have their
own rails directly into Chicago. are
all merged with systems which do
have direct connections with that city.
This means that no matter on what
road IN Kansas a shipment originates,
it can reach Chicago over the rails of
the system on which it originates
To Hold Hearings ON Plan.
The proposition of consolidating the
railroads of the United States into the
nineteen recommended systems, is not
definite as yet. The act of congress
provides that before any move is
made toward that consolidation, due
notice of the plan of the commission
is to be given to all interested parties,
and that hearings are to be held in all
parts of the country, at which railroad
men and shippers alike, may express
themselves on the proposal
The nineteen systems which are rec
commended in the tentative plan of the
commission are:
l. New York Central.
. Pennsylvania.
3 Baltimore & Ohio.
4. Erie.
;. Nickel Plate-Lehigh Valley.

PLAN R. R. MERCER
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Has Tentative Scheme.
Involves Consolidation of the
Roads Into Nineteen Systems.

Finding a scheme for the conselidd-
ton of all the railroads in the United
States into a limited number of sys-
TENS, with benefit to the shipper ami
to the railroads themselves as the OBJ
ject. is a task which was imposed upon
the interstate commerce commission
by the congress OF the United States
in 1920. in connection with the passage
Of the transportation act of 1920.
Since that time the experts OF the
commission as well as paid expert
on economics and transportation,
nave been working on the problem.
The commissions employed Professor
William z. Ripley, of Harvard unlVer-
sity, to draw up tentative scheme.
There has been issued by the COM
mission itself a report embodying the
tentative plan which it has drawn up,
and the scheme submitted by Pro-
lessor Ripley. The two plans do not
coincide, exactly. tho in the main they
are along the same lines.
Calls for Nineteen Systems.
The interstate commerce commits
sion tentative plan. calls for nineteen
different railway systems, consolidated
from various lines, as they at present
exist.
One of the requirements of the plan
as laid down by congress is that COM
petition between various lines shall be
preserved. and that as closely as pos
sible, existing channels of trade shan
he followed The congressional order
also provided that the cost of trans
portation on competing systems, and
the relative values of properties thru
which the transportation service Is
rendered, shall be taken into account
so far as possible, in order that uni
form rates may be charged by the rail-
return
made to each railroad owner.
Kansas and its transportation sys-
TENS are directly affected. Five OF
the consultations which are propose
by the interstate commerce comm1s-
sion affect Kansas lines.
Five Systems Touch Kansas.
The five systems which would re-
ceive goods from Kansas shippers, I'M
der the interstate commerce plan,
are:
