RAILROAD MERGER TALK
n. l.. and M Lines Want f0 Be Grouped With Inc Erie and Wabash If Plans Mature.

Washington. May la.=-The inter.
 state commerce commission was told
 today by William S. Jenney, vice. president and general counsel of the
 Delaware. Laekawanna and Western
 that if the proposed railroad consoi- idation is to so through. his road should be grouped with the Erie and the Wabash.
 He insisted, however. that nearly all consolidation proposals affecting the laekavanna were objectionable and that to follow the tentative commits sion plan Of attaching 1t to the New Haven and other New England lines would be seriously detrimental 10 the road and to the public interest.
 The proposed New England con- solidated system, MT. Jenney asserted. would fail to earn its fixed charges. Even the linking of the Lackawanna with the Erie and Wabash would pre- sent some danger. he said because the trunk line system so constructed could not compete fairly with the Pennsyl- vania and New York Central systems.
 The Lackawanna has in it's treas- ury surplus assets of stocks and bonds valued at s121, 1,o32.s67, Mfr. Jenney said, and In the event of any consol- idation these treasury assets would be to stockholders. The com pany's earning power would thereaft- er be based solely on its railroad oper- ations and he concluded. it's proper 'ies would not be helpful in carrying he load of weaker lines.
