Argues for 6 Per Cent
Return on RaiIlDay Value

A per cent return just escapes
condemnation as being confiscatory.
Forney Johnston. of counsel for the
Security Holders Association, ar
gued before the Interstate Com
merce Commission yesterday.
The commission is holding hear
ings to fix a rate of return on the
value of railway property to take
the place of the temporary ratio of
sig per cent to per cent estab-
lished by the transportation act for
the two-year period ended March /.
1922.
Mr.. Johnston contended that spe-
cific rates should be made without
reference to existing economic con-
ditions and that even II the ratio
Of return to be fixed by the commits
sion Should be in excess of 6 per
cent time would be required to
realize that return under adverse
conditions.

said.
1T is a bill that goes to the ex-
treme in giving money away" he
added. 1T Is the most drastic at
tempt to turn over for a song to a
few men the ships now owned by
the government and TO place the
seamen in the Merchant Marine
Naval Reserve"
Although the Jones ship subsidy
bill is the chief point of attack at
this time. Gompers declared. never
theless the committee will also dis
cuss attempts by ambulance chas-
ing lawyers to defeat the longshore-
mems compensation bill"
Reports on the Kenyon coal board
bill will be made and discussion of
