 ARE OPPOSED
Hearing Before Interstate Com.
 merCe Commission
BUSINESS REPORTED GOOD
Investors Running Western Trans portation Units for Nothing, it Is Stated, Burden Termed Baby on Doorstep"

Chicago, Sept. 10 R-The railroad rate burden was termed a baby of ,he doorstep" by both Chairman Clyde B. Aitchison, of the interstate commerce commission, and w. H. Bremner, receiver for the Minneap- oils X St. Louis Railway.
 Chairman Aitchison charged that the roads had left the "baby on the commissions doorstep" and Mir. Bremner replied that previously the commission had deposited 1t on the step of the railroads.
 Mir. Bremner, testifying today in the hearing on the western carriers petition for a five per cent freight rate advance, asserted that without heavy freight rate reductions order ed by the commission since 1920, his road would not now be in receiver ship. He added that security holders of the road were virtually devoting their investment to public service without compensation.
 Advance in Rates.
 Chairman Aitchison asked Brem- ner why his company had not offered q concrete proposal for relief, and asked why the Mountain Pacific ter ritory was included In the western The chairman also asked him why he had not taken advantage of rate increases permitted in Minnesota Brennan answered that he had in, creased passenger rates ana also hat somewhat advanced freight rate! within Minnesota, but added:
 Tn our entire territory We can not advance our freight rate If oui competitors do not advance theirs"
 R. H. Aishton. president of the American Railway association, said that thus far this year the railroads had far exceeded all records for handling carload freight and had done 1t with the greatest economy and efficiency. At the same time there had been at all times q surplus of freight cars, he added.
 Conditions Good.
 Tending to show that the inter- state commerce commissions S sugges- ton of 1922 that the railroads look 10 efficiency and economy in oper- ation," offers no solution of the prob lems of the western roads, President R. H. Ashton of the American Rail- way association described the condi-

BEAUTY CONTESTANTS
 WITHDRAW FROM RACE
Threat of Amateurs to Quit Has Desired Result
 at Atlantic City

Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 10 tPl- Miss Dorothy Knapp and Miss kath- ryn kay. New York show girls, whose appearance as Miss Manhat- tan and Miss Coney Island in the national beauty tournament now in progress here threatened its disrup- tion, today voluntarily withdrew from the contest.
 In letters 10 the pageant commit tee announcing their withdrawal they declared that they had taken the step rather than embarrass the pageant management.
 Tt was my belief that the public desired sheer beauty" wrote Miss Knapp, regardless of the occupa- tion of the contestant, but I have come to the conclusion that 1t Is more desirable that the pageant honors shall be awarded to an anna trur, and hope that this will form the precedent for the future. I also believe that all other professionals in the contest should withdraw"
 Withdrawal of the two New York contestants about whom the bat tie of the beauties" has ragged for the past month, will lead 10 the re- entry of Miss Mildred Walker (Miss Piusburgh) and Miss Mary Ann Guth Miss Erie) who withdrew yes terday, according 10 Nj. n. Crandar. their manager.
 Crandalrs ultimatum to the pa geant management was that unless Miss Knapp and Miss Ray withdrew voluntarily or were disqualified by noon today Miss Pittsburgh and Miss Erie would depart for their homes at once. Other young women from Pennsylvania towns were reported 10 have supported their stand and were likewise prepared to leave.
