Eastern Railroads
Seek Big Boosts
In Passenger Fares

The New York Central, the
Pennsylvania and other eastern
railroads today asked the Inter-
state Commerce Commission for
authority to increase first class
passenger fares IS per cent.
The roads also seek permission
to boost coach fares S per cent.
In confirming the long expected
action, the Central and Pennsyl-
vania said in joint statement:
1--WE have found it imperative
to take bold action to put our
fare structure on a realistic basis.
"By this we mean bringing it
to a level at which the type of
service offered by our railroads
will reflect the costs of such
service"
Other roads joining in the ap-
Iplication are the Chesapeake s.
Ohio. Lehigh Valley. Norfolk &
Western. Pennsylvania Reading
Seashore Lines, Pittsburgh &
Lake Erie and the Reading Co.
Lehigh Valley and Reading, the
petition said, seek only an in
crease in their basic coach fares,
The Baltimore g. Ohio, one
of the East's largest carriers, did
not ask for an increase.
In unofficial statement, the
railroads headquarters said:
1.-THE Baltimore & Ohio Rail-
road is not a party to these ap-
plications for rate increases and
has no comment to make on
them"

approval or disapproval of what
the candidates have been doing.
He avoided saying that he stood
with Mr.. Stevenson in the lat
ter's declaration that the party
platform should carry unequivo-
cal approval of the Supreme
Courts desegregation decision.
On the other hand, he would
not say that he did not believe
the Democrats can win on a
platform of moderation" His
reply to that question was: 1T
believe the Democrats will win
on the platform which will be
adopted. I am giving you no
adjectives."
One thing that seems reason
ably certain. If Mr.. Truman
comes out for Gov. Hartman,
an effect will be to throw the
Southern delegations right into
the lap of Mr.. Stevenson-Where
until recently most of them have
been.

Gov. Harriman's hopes for Tru-
man support have largely de-
pended on the fact that Mr.. Har.
riman himself tried to make him.

candidate-plus the fact Mr..
Hartman is a long time friend
of the former President, who ap-
pointed HI INTO a number of i'm
portant Offices Mr.. Truman has
had many kind words for the
New York Governor.
Gov. Hartman has relied, too
on the fact that Mr. Stevenson
was a loser in 1952-and he anC
his supporters have spread the
word, one, way or another, that
Mr.. Stevenson cannot win against
the man who defeated him -four
years ago. If Mr.. Truman be.
lieved that Mr.. Stevenson had nc
chance of winning in November
he might deny his support to Mr.
Stevenson. He has said repeat.
eddy, however, that the Demo
cratic nominee, whoever he may
be. can defeat President Eisen-
hover.
Cryptic on Second Spot
Mr.. Truman has been as cryp-
tic about a vice presidential
nominee as he has about his pref
erence for a presidential nominee
But in the matter of a second
place nomination, he told his
press conference the presidential
nominee has a right to he con-
suited before the selection of q
running mate is made. He de-
clined fatty to say whether he
thought that a Stevenson Ke-
fauver ticket would be a strong
ticket, or to discuss any other
possible combination
Mr.. Truman undoubtedly will
consider the various claims of
Mr.. Stevenson and Gov. Harri-
man regarding their delegate
strength in the convention.
Mr.. Stevenson and his mana
gers have insisted they have
assurances of more than 600
delegate votes on the first bal
lot. Gov. Hartman and his
managers, on the other hand,
have scoffed at such claims. They
have insisted that Gov. Harri-
man will have $50 to 400 votes
on the first ballot and that Mr.
Stevenson will have no more
than $50.
Mr.. Truman. will try to get at
the truth of the claims, and he
will know the party men to
whom to put his questions.
Managers UndiSmayed
The Stevenson managers said
today they were not dismayed
at all because of Mr.. Truman's
statement he is no bandwagon
man. They hope that the former
President will come out for their
candidate. But they insist that,
even if Mr.. Truman should an
nounce a preference for another
candidate, they will go forward
to win. They admit. however, it
would make the contest tighter
and more difficult.

Truman, in answering questions,

State Board OF Education Reports
On Special Meeting Activity

A report from the new State
Board of Education of action TAX
en- at their special meeting held
March II and 13, reveals that the
board has employed the firm of
Robert Heller and Associates, of
Cleveland to do research on Ohio'S
school needs. The Heller firm did
the work which resulted in the
Hoover Committee report. AS busi-
ness consultants, they will analy-
re Ohio's school needs from every
angle and make recommendations
which could vitally affect the
school program. The report will
be concluded in six months.
The board also removed restric-
tions on the purchase of school
buses which had limited accepted
firms to five. The board adopted
the 1854 School Bus Standards as
approved by the Department of
Education, making them the requ-
isites and opening the bidding to
all manufacturers.
The board announced til a
though 55 applications for the po-
sition of Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction had been received
by the personnel committee, NOM
nations were still open. Suggest
ions or applications should be sent
to Charlton Myers, Marion, Ohio,
chairman of the personnel COM
mittee.
Press and public relations COM
mittees were formed.
Teachers needs were pointed up
in that Ohio will need 1900 addi-
tional qualified teachers in 1856.
OF the $500 new teachers requir-
ed, only 6700 are anticipated. Four
thousand full-time teachers are
presently employed under tempor-
ary certificates and will be need
ed next year.
The board adopted the follow
ing resolution regarding segrega-
tion in Ohio schools:
Whereas the determination of
what constitutes unlawful segrega-
ton is matter for judicial deci-
sion, and
Whereas the State Board of
Education has neither the means
nor the right to take action on
this question without final deter
mination by the court,
BE it resolved that in any case
where courts have made final de-
termination that unlawful segrega-
ton exists, this Board would then
take action in accordance with the
law"
