000,000 or more buuincHs a year. Bim
llnr petitions will bo presented to all
state railroad commissions, the pro-
jKMtal being' to ralso Intrastate, rulca
also. An early hearing Is asked.
Tlio rouds ask an Increase of 3
cents per 100 pounds of grain and
grain products except In tho east
wlwro thore would bo no mine; 3 to
30 centu a ton on coal anJ 3 to 45
cents on coke; 10 icr cent on cotton
with a maximum of 0 cents per 100
pounds; 10 per cent on tobacco with
a maximum of 4 cents, and other
product In proportion. There aro
some excoptlors In thi far west and
In sections where truck competition
Is ken. Some rates which were rais
ed Aug. 30 ore exempted.
The action Is prompted, says the
petition, by tho restoration of tho 10
per cent cut In railroad woges In
103 J and Increasing costs of materials.
Thd wage restoration Is estimated to
add 1 00.000.000 to costs this year,
Increasing to $105,000,000 In 1035,
and material routs aro oxpocted to
add 137,000,000 In 1038.

FIERY READ
OF Nit A WILL
STAY ON JOB
(Continued Prom Page One)
Roosevelt, seeking to sooth the ruf
fled spirits of his conferees, suggested
that a decision bo postponed whilo
Johnson took a rest and a trip to
Eurow.
Tite reconciliation, so far as John
son is concerned, was consummated
Just beforo Mr. Roosevelt's departure
Saturday for Ifydo Park. Under its
terms Johnson stnys on as adminis
trator and probably will become, later
on. chairman of a board controlling
NRA.
Tho Implications respecting Mr.
Illehbcrg and Miss Perkins are less
clear. Rich berg's friends say he will
remain the NRA counsel, although
thero will be no further doubt that
Johnson Is boss. Miss Perkins is ex-
jiected to confine her activities more
closely to tho labor department.
The president did Insist, however.
that the general tako two weeks rest,
and Johnson consented and departed
for the beach. At the end of the two
weeks he will see the president at
Hyde Park, and they will aettlo de
tails of the new NRA set-up. And
in it the fiery soldier will have first
rank.
Tills does not mean a break be
tween Rlchbcnr and the president, or
lieiween Miss Perkins nnd the presi
dent. In her own field, Mr. Roosevelt
highly regards the secretary of labor.
He greatly admires Rich berg, und
will have other work for him should
he retire from NRA. He even Is said
to have him in mind for elevation,
some day, to the supremo court.
Under a reorganisation act of the
Kentucky legislature, no agency of
the state government can attend more
money than the department of fi
nance and budgetary control allows
it.
