that the board had acted wisely.

not been earned for the first six
months of the year. The company
has asked for an increase in rates,
which, if granted, will place the cleo
trio line rates more nearly on parity
with those Of steam roads. Until it
is known whether the application
will be granted and, if it is, what
effect it will have on the revenues
of the company, the directors believe

made"
This is the first interruption to
payments of dividends on the pre-
ferred stock. Back in 1912 the COM

have been paid regularly in quarterly
