OPPOSES MERCER OF NE. RAILROADS
Executives Say Absentee Board
 Would Not Be Sympathetic

Boston, Feb. s (UP) to any plan for merging New Eng land railroads with railroads out side Now England was voiced by railroad executives before the com mittce studying this tcrritorys S transportation needs here today.
 It appeared to be the consensus or railroad officials that it would he best for the Boston X Maine. New Haven & Hartford, and other New England lines to continue operation virtually as at present.
 President Percy E. Todd of the Bangor and Aroostook railroad eI- pressed doubt that consultations proposed by the interstate con- mcrce commission would result in the benefits prophesicd The com- mission has recommended that New England's transportation be han died through two main lines, one to embrace the Boston X Maine an the roads in it's territory. and the other the New Haven and tho lines m its territory. Some connections in the case of both trunk lines also would be provided outside New Ergland
 President Todd believed New England shippers would receive the best treatment if the roads were operated locally as at present, sinoc the management would understand lccal problems better than an ao- sentee management.
 Doubts Tonnage Gain
 While sponsors Of the consolidl- ton plan claimed that local proJ- lems could be handled adequatc.y through local officials. Todd said. questions would arise. as in matters of policy which would haye to ie dealt with by the absentee manage T:ent. Local industries probably would not get "a good break as q result, he argued.
 Todd also doubted that the con- solicitations would bring about cnon- omles in the operation of the Ne.7 England carriers, asserting that the prognostications of economies had been made only by Washington off cials, not by practical railroad men affected
 If there must be a consolidatio,.. Tcdd said, he believed it should rc effected so that New England would be served by one rather than two trunk lines, the line to include tnc New Haven. Boston & Maine. Ruc- land, and Maine Central and Bangor and Aroostook lines.
 Asked if he thought hat the ton mage carried by tho Now E,nglanI roads would increase if the conso,i- dation plan were adopted, Todd re- piled in the negative, contondiuE that all tonnage available was now being carried.
