6. c. DECIDES
AGAINST CUTS
IN RAIL RATES
Radical Reductions Are Not
Warranted by Earnings in
1922, Is Report Finding
SITUATION IS IMPROVING
Basic Return of 5 "a Per Cent
on Fair Valuation May Be
Reached This Year, Is Hope

Radical reductions in freight
rates and passenger fares are not
warranted at this time.
This is the judgment of the In
terstate Commerce Commission
pronounced last night in a COM
prehensive review of operating
conditions on the railroads dur
ing the past three years.
EARNINGS NOT LARGE.
While the revival of business more
than overcame the handicaps Of
the strikes of the coal miners and
shopmen in 1922. together with the
reduction of 10 per cent in freight
rates, effective July l, 1922, the
commission said the roads did not
earn enough last year to net a
return of So per cent on valua-
ton OF $500, 000.0 900, fixed by the
commission as of December 81,
1919, plus subsequent addition to
property.
THE marked increase in traffic in
the closing months Of 1922, and the
probability that, as the effects of
the two strikes recede, the roads
will have their operating expenses
under still better control, make 1t
income will in 1923 approach more
nearly to what the commission has
indicated to be a fair return of
50 per cent on a valuation of $751;
000, 200, 900 as of December 81, 1919"
the report said.
IF this valuation is tentatively
assured to be SO 400, 000. 900 for the
mileage used by class l roads, the
ref,,rn Of ga ner cent would be
al lis 600 600 annually,
