Basic fares were cut from 3.6 cents per mile to 1.8 cent as an experiment In December, 1933. A two-cent rat waa made for round trip flrat class service, and three centa a mile for one-way first class service. During the first year the reduced rates resulted In a sharp In crease In volume of passenger busl nees, and the ratea were continued. A wide-spread alr-condltlontng pro gram was the next step In the battle. Introduced on the Baltimore and Ohio road's Capitol Limited, the "man-made weather" proved so pop ular that all line took atepa toward air-conditioning their tralna. Nearly $36,000,000 has been spent for alr condltlonlng equipment. It waa esti mated. Faster Schedules Adopted.

Following the lead of the Northwestern, the Burlington intro duced Its twin Zephyrs, stream-lined Diesel powered trains, on the same run, and cut the time by 30 min utes. Not to be outdone, the "400" also reduced Its running time to V hour. Latest entrant In the Chicago Minneapolis apeed race la the Mil waukee road, with Ita speedy stream liner, the Hiawatha, also running on a 7-hour schedule. Alton Cuts Time. Other railroads operating out 01 Chicago which have quickened sched ules since January 1 are: Alton road Reduced running time between Chicago and St. Louis by a full hour. Baltimore and Ohio Cut running time of Capitol Limited between Chicago and Washington by 35 mln- utea. Chicago and Eastern Illlnola and Wabash Reduced run on Spirit oi Progress and Banner Blue Limited to St. Louis by one hour. Pennsylvania and New York Cen tralClipped 45 minutea from sched ules of Broadway and 30th Century Llmlteds to New York. The trip Is now made in 17 hours. ' Detroit-Chicago Run Speeded. Michigan Central and Pennsylvania Seduced running time between Chicago and Detroit by 30 minutes, making the 394 miles in 6 hours. Thee changes, together with number of minor ones, are rapidly regaining passengere for the. rail roads. The "400" has carried nearly 10, 000 passengers each month since Its first trip on January 3. The Bur lington Zephyre now make a round trio dallv to accommodate an In creased number of paeeengera.
