Railrodas Plead for
Better Freight Rates
Washington D C.—As anticipated
for *ome time, western railroads have
petitioned the Interstate commerce
commission for an Increase of freight
rates.
Practically all of tbe carriers west
of the Mississippi have united 1n th«
request. It Is pointed out that west­
ern roads have not received the 5%
per cent fair return permitted by
law. The commission Is asked to
ent«r, “appropriate orders” raising
rates enough to Increase returns to
(hat point. The west would pay an
additional bill of »150,000,000 annu­
ally If the commission should grant
the rite asked.
The railroads have not filed spe­
cific schedules of rates they desire
to Increase. They do not suggest or
point out what rates they think
should be raised Rather by the move
Taken this week they have shot ths
question of the “fair return’ up to the
commission, and asked that body
