|. c. c. REVOKEs ORDER
MAKING RAILROADS SELL
CHEAP MILEAGE MAY Is

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Apr 25.-
Orders OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission requiring railroads TO be-
GIN sale of interchangeable mileage
hooks at a twenty per cent. discount
on regular passenger fare rates on
May Is were revoked today and the
effective date of the mileage book
sile postponed until January /. 1924.
The action of the commission, which
followed the granting of an injunction
restraining enforcement of the order,
resulted directly from an appeal for
pastponement from western carriers.
Though the court order only re-
strains sale of books by fifty eastern
railroads, the commission decided to
forestall the confused situation which
would arise from sale and use of the
mileage in other parts of the country
and from possible court action on be-
half of western and southern rail-
roads.
