IC.&0. Idea on Freiqhl
Would Make THINGS
Worse, Officials Say

Government and railroad associa-
tion officials agreed today that a
suggestion by the Chesapeake 81
Ohio Railway for speeding up
freight service between Chicago and
the West Coast would aggravate
rather than alleviate, the current
freight car shortage.
Calling attention to the fact that
railroads maintain the same time
schedules between Chicago and all
coast points despite disparity in dis
tances, the c. & o. suggested that
faster trains were being held back
deliberately to give no road COM
petitive advantage.
One of those to hit the idea was
William T. Farley. president of the
Association of American Railroads.
Farley Criticizes Young.
He said the standard schedule of
trains to the West Coast was due
to the fact that the fastest schedule
set the pace, and that the other lines
must meet this speed by reducing
tonnages. Referring to Robert r.
Young, chairman Of the C. g. O., Mr.,
Farley said:
IF Mr.. Young would consult the
management of his own railroad
he would discover that the only
way the railroads can run their
freight trains faster Is to reduce
the number of cars in each train
and that, of course, would necessi-
tate the running of many additional
trains
Aside from the extravaganza OF
Mr.. Young's proposal, the locomo-
tiVes to haul the additional trains
are nonexistent. And in the West,
particularly, where. most of the
railroad mileage is single track, the
additional trains would congest the
rails and switching yards and de-
1eat their purpose.
There would be fewer cars avail
able for shippers rather than more -,
Government officials close to the
freight car situation and empowered
to act to make more cars available.
agreed that a change In existing
schedules would not help. Asking tn
remain anonymous rather than to
engage in controversy, they said OBJ
]ectionS to the plan were numerous.
Objections Explained.
ANY but a standard schedule for
freight hauling would lead to cut
throat competition, which in turn
would lead to more serious dis
location in freight cars. they said.
The only solution in building up
the freight car stock was In build
ing new cars, the officials said. They
pointed out that the manufacture
of 10000 cars monthly is expected
next month, climb from 1000 to
5000 the first of the year. A faster
production rate will be impossible
because of shortage of steel, they
said.

Food Price Decline
Unlikely Soon, Federal
Economists Declare

With the cost of living at a record
high, consumers were faced today
with a Government forecast of con-
tinued high food prices.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
said the consumer price index for
June Is hit 1871 per cent, a record
high, and wholesale prices continued
upward in the week ended August
9 To reach a new postwar peak for
the fourth straight week.
Agriculture Department econo-
mists forecast that there is little
hope of any change in the general
level of retail food prices during
the next few months.
Reverses Earlier Forecast.
That statement was particularly
significant in the light of predic-
tions last March that food prices
would drop later this year, with
wholesale prices falling of as much
as Is to 20 per cent.
Department economists based the
earlier prediction on a belief the
country would experience down.
turn in business activity. Instead,
business continues good and employ
ment is at an sll-time high.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics re-
port on cost OF living noted that the
family food bill rose is per cent be-
tween May Is and June Is.
The bureau previously had made
preliminary estimate of the con-
sumers' price index placing it at
157. 1t uses the period 1858 as
100 and covers retail prices of es-
sential items bought by families of
moderate incomes in large cities.
The previous peak was 1863,
reached last March. Refill prices of
living essentials in mid-June were
Is per cent higher than a year ago
and SO per cent above the August,
1889, level.
Major Prices Advance.
The prices rose or per cent be-
tween mid May and mid June.
Prices advanced on all major
groups of items except rent, fuel,
electricity and ice.
Higher prices for meats and q
2 per cent seasonal rise in egg
prices were mainly responsible for
an increase of is per cent in the
family grocery bill between May Is
and June Is. Meats, poultry and
fish as a group advanced more than
6 per cent during the month. The
largest increases were for beef and
veal which were up 10 per cent,
lamb up 8 per cent, and pork per
cent.
The meat rises were partly Off
set by drop of per cent in aver
age prices of fats and oils and the
sharpest monthly drop in coffee
prices per cent-in more than 10l
years. Fruit and vegetable prices
declined l per cent while fractional
increases were reported in prices for
cereals and bakery products, sugar
and sweets.
Dairy prices as a group remained
unchanged.
Apparel prices and house turn-
ishings rose 04 per cent.
