Pennsy Denies
Merger Would
Injure Rivals
BY the Associated Press

An official of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad called grossly
exaggerated today a conten-
ton by the New Haven Rail-
road that it would lose sub
stantial traffic if the Pennsyl-
vania merges with the New
York Central.
Fred Capri, Pennsylvania
vice president for sales, also
disputed estimates by the Bos-
ton & Maine Railroad, the
Chicago & Eastern Illinois, the
Delaware & Hudson, the Erie
Lackawanna and the New
York Susquehanna & Western
Railroad of traffic losses if
the merger is approved.
None of these lines, Mr..
Capri said in testimony before
the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, has submitted proof
to support their estimate. He
testified on the 115th day of
hearings by the commission
into the Pennsylvania New
York Central merger applica-
ton.
New Haven Railroad wit
neSses have commended that a
Penn-Central system would
force the New England road
to go out of business, the New
Haven has asked the commits
sion to make it a part of the
proposed Penn-Central.
