RAIL RATE INCREASE
effective IN OHIO
(BV Associated Pressl

COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 3-On instruc-
tons from the interstate commerce
commission, and over the protests of
Ohio officials, railroads operating in
Ohio TO-DAY increased their passenger
fare rates from to SO cents per mile,
making the rates charged in this state
conform with interstate rates. Ohio
state officials, under a decree issued
by the United States district court
here last week, are temporarily en-
joined from interfering with the appli-
cation OF the increased rates.
A hearing will be held here Satur-
day on motion to make the temper
airy injunction permanent. If the
temporary injunction is made perma-
nent. Ohio officials say they will ap-
peal to the United States supreme
court. Ohio officials contend that the
interstate commerce commission has
no authority to force higher railroad
rates than the maximum of cents a
mile provided for under the state laws.
