fore State Commission.
EAST'S FIGURES COMPARED
Data Prepared for Presentation to
Interstate Body in Hearing on
Increase ot 15 Per Cent
on Rate Scale.
SALEM, Or., June 16. (Special.)
The stupendous amount of business
done by the Western railroads Is shown
In a stack of exhibits which has been
received by the Public Service Com
mission from Washington, r. C. These
exhibits were prepared by the Western
Commissions, in the main, or by the
bureau of railway economics at Wash
ington, for the use of the Western
Commissions in their appearance before
the Interstate Commerce Commission
on the 15 per cent rate Increase hear
ing. An exhibit presented by U. G. Pow
ell rate expert for the Western Com
missions, shows that the roads In the
Western classification territory have
an average revenue per ton mile of
$8.91, as compared to $6.53 for the roads
in the Eastern classification territory
and $6.50 for the Southern roads.
Figure" Are Compared.
The Western roads, according to this
showing, show a percentage of 136 as
compared to the Eastern roads for the
average revenue per ton mile. The
Western roads have a net return of
8.88 per cent, according to Mr. Powell's
showing, as compared to 5.95 per cent
for the Eastern roads, and 6.4S per cent
for the Southern roads.
The Western roads' average operat
ing revenue to their gross revenue Is
67.70 per cent, while the Kastern roads
show 77.27 per cent and the Southern
roads 70.89 per cent. The Western
roads cover 129,410 miles, as to 46,513
miles for the Eastern roads and 61,590
for the Southern roads.
Figures prepared by H. B. Warren,
another expert appearing for the West
ern Commission, show that the Western
roads, for the 15 years from 1900 to
1915, inclusive, had an average of
$1,188,512,450 In operating revenues, or
an Increase In 1915 over 1900 of 87.14
per cent. The average operating ex
penses per years for the same length
of time were $793,914,983, or an in
eease in 1915 over 1900 of 101.51 per
cent. The net operating revenues av
eraged $394,597,467, and the average
operating ratio was 66.80 per cent.
Ftffares Presented by Experts.
X. E. Wettling, another expert,
showed iat In 1916 the Western roads
had operating revenues amounting to
$1,263,915,130.25; operating expenses
amounting to $804,000,912.27; net op
erating revenues, $450,210,716.76; taxes,
$63,513,163.29; operating income, $387,
697,552.47; rentals, $1,168,593.12, or a
net operating -income for the Western
roads that year of $386,528,959.35.
Figures prepared by other experts
Indicated that for 38 roads not in the
Western classification territory, wages
have increased $69,090,243; cost of fuel.
$57,959,217, and cost of material, $89,
084.214. This Is a total increase -of
$216,133,674, while the estimated In
crease in revenue by a change of rates
to December 31, 1916, amounts to but
$141,705,506.
The comparisons made by Expert
Powell as to the conditions In Western,
Kastern and Southern territory, were
made by the Western Commissions to
indicate that even If advances are made
in the Eastern and Southern classifica
tion territories, such advances should
not apply to the Western territory, as
these roads, under his figures, are
bringing a greatly higher percentage of
return.

Tribute Paid to the Flag.
"Proud of the magnificent Nation of
which I am a citizen. I am also proud
of the banner which symbolizes its
majesty. In every bar of red that rip
ples in the winds of heaven I read a
reminder of the patriotism that poured
out its blood upon my country's battle

preserved In this land chosen h hvT,
to be a forerunner in that ealuvu

of the patriotism that established this

War Not Demorali.:. to Americana,
"I hear from anxious parents and
relatives the remark. 'War is so demor
alizing; It will ruin our young men.' I
grant that a war such as the central
powers are making, murdering innocent
civilians, maltreating women, dragging
innocent girls and unoffending men
into slavery, blowing up unarmed mer
cflant vessels, destrovinar th ltv. nf
mothers and babes with as little com
punction as though they were vermin,,
will demoralize the rulers and officers
who direct such devilish work and th
men who execute it; but the soldier who
tuxes up arms in aerense of his country
and to check and put down oppression
will not be demoralized by his service.
"Tears ago I had the honor to deliver
in this city a farewell address to the
gallant young men who had enlisted
from here to defend the honor of the
flag in the Philippines; and when they
came back, and, thank God, all of them
came back, I had the pleasure of par
tieipating In the welcome they received
on that occasion.
"You know these men. Did they come
back demoralized, degraded, or were
their moral standards in any wise low
ered by their servicer You know the
contrary. One of them -Decuples the
place once held by me as judge of your
court; others are In responsible posi
tions and respected by their fellow
citisens. There is still among you a
remnant of those battle-scarred veter
ans who followed the flag to victory
in the Civil War. Think! Consider
these men. Did the war demoralize
themf Are they not as a rule among
your best citizens, with a dignity aris
ing from a duty nobly performed?
What would not come of the young
men of today, give in exchange for the
repute and esteem in which these gray
haired veterans are held In the com
munity. No, service in a just war never
did and never will demoralize anybody.
A crisis is upon our country, and we
each have eur duty to perform.
"Let. him that can be a aoldi.ee shoul-
der hi rifle let him that cannot be a
soldier ' contribute according to his
means, be It much or little, to assist
and uphold the men who are baring
their breasts to the foes to fight his
battles. In the field, in the factory, in
the garden, everywhere, there Is room
to serve your country in this Its hour
of peril.
"The women. God bless them, can
help nay, they are helping. The sex
last at the cross and first at the tomb
of our Savior will not be laggard In
this holy causa. Where there are
wounds to heal and suffering to as
suage there will she be, and that to
bless. Thank God for the Red Cross
and for the opportunity It gives our
dear women to be of service to hu
manity in this great struggle. The
fires of patriotism burn brightly in
their hearts, and when the role of he
roes who have served their country Is
called the names of those noble women
who have encouraged their loved ones
to do a man's part in the struggle, and
with aching hearts have seen them
march, away to do and aare ror tneir
country, will be near the head of the
list.
Flag Day Message Brought.
"My fellow citizens, this Is the mes
sage I bring you upon this our 'Flag
day.' Let us honor ourselves by honor
ing the flag. Give it to every breeze
of heaven, let it float over every dwell
ing, from every scboolhouse, every
church, every courtroom and every
lodgeroom all over the land. Let morn
ing light add a new luster to Its folds
as it floats in the breese. ana let tne
sun a it sinks in the Paclflo tinge its
red, white and blue with all the hues
of a beneficient heaven. God save our
country and bless our flag!'

FAT MAN 'LET DOWN EASY'
Marine Corps-- Declines to Reject
Him, but Omits Acceptance.
PHILADELPHIA- June 16. Because
telling a man be is too fat to serve his
