Cents Mile Necessary Before
InrnnrnIinn Commission

BY Associated Press state Wire.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. 9.--Dec-
lahiOn that an increase in passen-
ger and freight rates is essential to
the continued operation OF the road
was made today by +. Il. Burford in
a hearing before\the state corpora
ton commission of an application
Of the Fort Smith & Western
railroad for additional revenues.
Setting out that the road was or
ganized in 1899 at a cost of approx
imately $4,000, 1000, Mr.. Burford de-
clared that since that time 1t has
never declared n dividend or paid
interest on its bonds, and that the
actual operating loss during the Pc
Rod Is now slightly in excess of
$4,000, 900. The road has been in
tbe hands OF a receiver since 1915.
Testimony introduced at the
hearing was to the effect that 99.3
per cent of the roads mileage is In
oklahoma. the road connecting
Fort Smith, Ark, and Oklahoma
City.
The application for increased
rates sets out a tariff which will
approximate &c a mile for passen-
ger fares. Freight rates would be
