KNOTTY PROBLEMS SEEN Arguments on Question of Readjust ing; Commodity Rales to Pacific Will Brgln Before Com merce Board Monday. CHICAGO. March 15. (Special.) No action will be taken by lines connected with the Transcontinental Freight Bu reau in regard to a readjustment of freight rates to the Pacitic Coast until a number of knotty problems connected with the subject have been disposed of by the Interstate Commerce Commis sion. This decision was reached today at a meeting of officials of the bureau In Ohlrago. After a general discussion re garding the situation, it was concluded that nothing would be gained by de ciding on any particular plan until the views of the commission have been ob tained. Arguments on the question of read Justing commodity rates to the Pacific Coast will begin before the commis sion in Washington next Monday. A scheme, which has been under consider ation by the railroads for some time, provides for two west-bound tariffs, one to be considered a strictly water competition tariff, naming rates to the Pacific Coast only on shipments sub ject to water competition, and the other to name rates to the Coast on com modities not affected by this compe tition. The latter rates would be higher to points on the Coast and would grad ually apply to Intermediate points. The meeting will adjourn Saturday, that those attending may go to Wash ington for the hearing to be held by the Commerce Commission Marcn it), at which testimony will be taken in the application of the Transcontinental Freight Bureau for relief from pro visions of the long and short haul clause. This Is the most important ap plication before the commission, in volving, as It does, freight rates to Pacific terminals and Intermountain ter ritory, which, more than any other sec tion of the country, with the possible exception of the Southeast, furnishes instances of higher rates for shorter than for longer hauls. BONDS NOT NEEDED NOW Corporation Tax Decision Puts Gov ernment In Funds. BOSTON. March 15. Secretary of the Treasury MacVeafrh, who spent a few hours today at the customs house, in consultation with Collector Edwin V. Curtis, said of the finances of the Gov ernment and the new Panama Canal loan: "Although It has been the general Im pression that a block of new 1 per cent Panama bonds would be Issued Immedi ately after the adjustment of the cor poration tax. we are la no immediate need of funds. In fact, while I am hav ing plates engraved for the bonds, neither the amount nor the time of Issue has been decided. "The first Issue, however, will proba bly be not more than I.tO.000.000. The de cision of the corporation tax litigation in favor of the Government has changed the complexion of the Government finances for the moment. This decision involved a matter of S52.O00.O0O to the treasury Immediately. Of this amount, IZ7.000.OuO represents the amount col lected last year. We estimate the in come from the tax this year at S25.000. 000. so that with the S52.000.000 remaining in the treasury, the immediate neces sity of a bond issue Is precluded. "The treasury will close the current fiscal year on June 30 with a total deficit of about S3O.00O.0O0." TEXAS TO BECOME TARGET Old Battleship to Be Used In Test of Explosives, NORFOLK. Va.. March 15.
