been worked out with considerable

NO FREIGHT RATE
CUT IS POSSIBLE,
HINES DECLARES
Earnings Too Low to Admit Of
Reduction, Former Rail
Chief Testlfies.
WOULD NOT AID BUSINESS

nv Associated Press to Every Evening
Washington, Jan. 31.--Walker ID.
Hines, former director-general of the
railroad administration. called today
as representative OF the public by
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
in it's investigation of transportation
levels. testified that in his opinion
railroad earnings were too low to nj
low general reduction OF freight
charges and that business activity
would not be stimulated by such a step
Y taken.
Mr.. Hines estimated that 'in the
public interest II Is probably necessary
for the railroad to spend on better
ments and facilities, ut least $1,000
600. 900 year for some time to come"
I'VE must all admit railroad rates
are high now" said Mr.. Hines. but
In my opinion current business de.
preston Is not due to that fact. but
to conditions that are fundamental
and world wide. Chiefly 1t II due To
the effort OF people to get to a normal
adjustment after the strain of the
great war.
considering The effects of a possible
ReneTal ,reuuCtiOn, VIC must ConCiuue
first that 1t would further deplete the
financial reserve OF railroad companies
which are already weakened, unless
il stimulated business sufficiently tc
produce traffic which would make w
tle loss.
Second, we must conclude that il
would reduce the purchasing power
of the railroads themselves. which Is
an important factor in the fabric OF
commercial organization. ] doubt thai
n reduction would stimulate business
Depression Is due to the absence OF
demand for commodities which de.
mand cannot be created by Sigh
price reductions which rate reductions
would allow.
1t would be doubtful whether tn,
effect of the reduction would eve

BOULEVARD PLANS
WELL UNDER WAY
City Solicitor in Charge of Ne
gotiations for Purchase Of
Necessary Land.

In the absence Of any big rush Of
unusual business Mt their meeting this
morning the directors OF the Street
and Sewer Department gave much
time to the consideration OF their
plans for tho proposed new boulevard
through the lower end of the Ninth
ward TO connect with the new bridge
which Is to be built across the Bran
dywine from Eleventh and Church
streets TO Fourteenth and Thatcher
Tho members spent much time In go
Ing over the blue print showing the
route Of the highway and, the prop
critics 1t will affect.
One thing was made clear this
morning and that is the decision Of
the board not to deal with individuals,
no matter who. in negotiations for
the acquisition OF any land that may
be necessary for the building Of this
new boulevard. They will be governed
throughout nil their dealings relative
TO the project solely BY the advice OF
the city solicitor and any negotiations
that may come up later will. It IS
understood, be taken in charge by
| him.
In the first place the directors have
planned, once the route Is fixed. to gel
list of all the properties that vii
be affec ed by 1t and the value of such
lands or buildings. They will ther
compute the total cost to the city Of
building the highway and with thes.
figures they will go before the Cit,
Council and present their data an,
ask for an appropriation sufficient Il
cover the work.
An the event Council refuses q
make this appropriation then the pro
posed new boulevard through tn
eastern section of the city will be ;
dead Issue, at least for the time be
ing, for the Street and Sewer Depart
ment will be unable to do anything o
itself and will have 10 depend on a
nanciai assistance from Council. II
however, Council approves 1t, and sew
eral of the members are known t
favor the highway, then the stree
directors viii take up with the cit,
solicitor the question of how the,
shall proceed TO the acquisition OF tn
necessary land.
II they find they can secure an
or all of the property needed at
satisfactory figure through private ne
gotiations and the city solicitor say
! such procedure is proper then the
will proceed to buy. If this canne
: be done then they will ask for cor
