$16,OOO, ,OOO Gain In
 Railroad Receipts
New Haven Road Admits Great Increase in Patronage
 Seeks Higher Communication Rates

Revenues one the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad were $16,N0, 900 greater for the first five months of 1942 over the comparable period of last year, Frank J. Wall, Hce-president in charge of traffic, said yesterday at a hearing before the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion, in which the New Haven, the New York Central and nine other railroads are petitioning for 10 per cent increase in communication fares for trips within New York state.
 In a cross-examination conducted by Gay H. Brown, chief counsel for the Public Service Commission, which denied the 10 per cent intra- state communication rate increase last February, MT. Wall said that the railroad enjoyed a tremendous increase in traffic in 1942," and that in May there had been an increase of 75 per cent in passenger revenue over May, 1941.
 Before cross examination, MT. Wall testified that in 1941 the New Haven operated total of 13,773,O67 train miles, of which 9,7O9,153 were oper- ated in passenger service. Of the total operating costs of $74,867, ,767, passenger services accounted for $31 1869, ,165, he said
 MT. Wall testified that the road needed an increase in communication rates because that type of fare pro- vtded an important part of total revenue. He said that on March 1 communication fares to points out side New York were raised 10 per cent under the authority of a I. c. c. order which also granted permis- sion to raise regular passenger and freight rates. He said that the pub lie service commissions of Connec- lieut. and Massachusetts granted permission to raise intrastate com- mutation rates greatly out of line with the rest of the roads monthly ticket prices.
 Earl E. Pierce, general passenger agent for the New York Central Railroad and first witness for that road, testified that the New York Central's total communication reve- nue in 1941 on its Harlem, Putnam, Hudson and West Sohe Divisions, amounted to $4,948, ,035, of which the intrastate communication revenue amounted to $3,425,873.

year old pony which had strayed from his pasture on Meriden road.
 The pony, brown and white animal which brought joy to the heart of the nephew of Thomas White of 424 Meriden road was found at Il o'clock last night by Sergeant McWeeney and Motor Patrolman Donald Monaghan.
 MT. White told police and Assist ant Superintendent of Streets James McMahon that he bought the pony in Naugatuck yesterday and put it in a pasture on Meriden road last night with the intention of giving it to his young nephew this morning.
 The police officers found the Iit- tie animal on Wolcott road near Bouley Manor. After Sergeant McWeeney had "roped" the pony (there was a halter on him any way), he called the Street Depart ment for help. The pony trotted to the Street Department yards on Benedict street behind the emer- gency truck.
 Less than 15 minutes later MT. White was phoning police to say the pony had strayed. He was over- joyed to learn the animal had been found and was safe at the city yards. Attendants were preparing to bed him down for the night when MT. White arrived to take him home.
 "You never can tell when exper- fence will count" said Sergeant Me- Weeney. "Who would ever think that learning to ride donkey in a baseball game would be of any help in an emergency"
 Said Desk Lieutenant John Dun- phy at headquarters today, If McWeeney hadn't been there we would have had to call on Sergeant Joe Bagley, our former Royal Mountie."
