Of the 114 lines of conse quence. 67 have accepted the government's proposal for a di vision of the surplus above the rtandard return and a guarantee of earning should the revenues fall short. All accepting the pro posal will be entitled to a final adjustment of accounts by the treasury and the payment: where the revenues were below the guaranteed amounts. Among the lines not accepting tbe guarantee proposal were the Southern and Pere Marquette sys tems. Neither has earned rev enues equivalent to the amount which they received under the guarantee, according to Julius II. Parmelee. director ot the bureau of railway economics. Rig lWirlts F-srh Month. In the first four months of the guarantee period, railroad reven ues topped actual expenditures for operation only once. The March revenues represented a net return of $13,700,000. while there were deficits of $29,700,000 In April; $11,800,000 In May. and $7,500. 000 in June. July and August Included. mt. rarmeiee also estimated a deficit for July and August, bas ing bis calculations on the re sults of the same months last year. Traffic in those two months established a record for volume yet the lines were able to pro duce revenues of only $2,000,000 and $13,000,000. respectively, for July 'and August above the stan dard return of $72,000,000 a month. Additional expenses not yet accounted for. Mr. Parmelee said, probably wouid cut down the revenues for the two months. The wage award, he said, would add more than $20,000,000 to operating expenses for each month, while about $200,000 in bark pay to employes will come out of the earnings of July and August unless the corporations have sufficient funds on hand to draw on a reserve. tee waa agreed Yon.
