PAGE TWO THE EVENING HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON October 21, 1031 COUSIN SEEKING TO i RAISE RATE Ifc. (Continued from Pag Oa) Washington. D. C, wn reported In dlspstch aa hurlni laid: "I am aorry any Increas what ever wm necessary. 1 at dec! rum will work a hardship on th shipper of forest product from the west who ar already aut- ieilng. Thla will to farther In cutting down their market." When Informed of tlia pro posed Increase, O. H. Daggett of tlie Ewauna Hex company atated that such a plan would mean a substantial Increase in expenses to lumbermen of Klamath. Daggett atated that he had not yet determined what the ap proximate difference would bu under such a plan, but pointed out that It would affect this community materially. Th commission will not per mit raised fretitht rates on potato ahlpmenta. It is understood. Logs are also exempt from Increase. TIV J. H. JKNKIXS WASHINGTON. Oct. II W Flatly denied permission to raise freight rates 15 per cent. Amer ica's railways have before them a new and nntrled Interstate commerce commission proposal for pooling monies derived from aurchargee on freight billa to aid the less prosperous lines. The railroads were left with no apparent alternative but to accept th plan. They wer told by the commission their 15 per cent proposal would b harmful to themselves because of the growing use of trucka and pipe lines. Their executives were di rected to anbmit a plsn for han dling th pool by December 1 and were Informed it could not operate longer than March 31. 11J.' Scoff at Pise Railroad men and attorneys had scoffed at the plan when shippers euggested It at hearings. It waa unworkable, they said. The commiieton, however, today asserted it was workable. At the same time the commis sion outlined th commodities on which It would permit sur charges and the amount of those surcharges. They were limited to a maximum of 10 per cent. Major farm product Includ ing wheat, corn, cotton, livestock and most fresh fruits are sot to be levied against further. Tbe commission disclaimed any responsibility for keeping tbe income of tlia railroads up to the requirement of the New York and other state lawa for Invest ment purpose. Th carrier wer Joined by savings banks and other bond holders of th roads in their petition tor the Increase on the grounds that the value of th securities was threatened. Pool PUnned A yield from the surcharge plan of between 1100.000,000 and tl2S.060.0u0 annually on the basU of present traffic was estimated by the commission. This wonld be pooled and the needs of the carriers unable to earn Interest on their bonds cared for. Then the remainder would be returned to the more prosperous roads on the bai of the amounts paid In. "It Is our conclusion." said the commission, "that a IS per cent increase on all freight rate and charges would Increase rev enue, if at all. only temporarily and that It ultimata effect, not very long postponed, wonld b to harm rather than help th railroads. It ii similarly our conclusion that such an Increase would raise 'rate upon many kinds of traffic above a Jut and reasonable level. This Utter conclusion nppllea particularly to the product of agriculture. In cluding livestock." The commission after reach ing lu conclusions went Into th railroad future. Dn to Digression Th most effective remedy for the Immediate lilt of th railroad la th economic recov ery of th country," it aald. "The present low earning are not th result of low rates but reflect general industrial condi tion. Th earning will con tinue to reflect those conditions as business improve Jnst a they have in the past. "While the tide m&y o In turning, there 1 no more rea son for thinking that business will not Improve than there wa in 1028 for thinking that depres sions wer a thing of th past and that w wer In an era of permanent prosperity. Public emotion awlngs from on xtreme to the other and there is nothing mors volatil than th amotion of th investing public When railroad earning take a sharp turn upward, as In due tlm they will, railroad credit will also rls." Received In Silence The decision was Tecelved at the White House in silence. pk- nrAlHnt hn. been making a broad study of the railroad bond situation with a view of taking aom alep towara improv ing their tatus. What effect the decision would have upon this plan was not disclosed. White House officisls would say only that the president had no comment to make upon the railroad situation. Use of Wood for Bridges Advocated ' (Continued from Pag One) matter ther la no question that wood would be the cheapest ma terial to us In th construction of th bridge. As has been said, the Interest on the amount nf capital It would take to build concrete bridges would toon pay tor the wooden spans.

Th local headquarters for the Community Concert Association ia located at 601 Main atreet, where any question In regard to the plan will be answered, and membership may be secured. 3 MOTIVES FOR CRIME STUDIED BY DETECTIVES (Continued from Fag On) theory of a deranged mind. In It. he naked her to "try to exert a little self-control." "I will remind yon for on thing that yon wrot me first that your father was dying, faulty injured, next that yon wanted to bring your parenu out here, next that your father waa on the verge of pneumonia (which neither yon nor anyone els knows to be th case.) '" Ruth. Dear, yoa ask 'why' mast I be away from my parenu? I'll tell yoa why. It is because yoa have not wnt ed to be with them." In an nnexpUlned statement, th writer uke "blam for th entire situation during th put year or more." He advised her he waa afraid "you ar In danger of retting yourself Into a serious condition. Yon want to get hold of yourself. He referred to mild narcotic which ah apparent ly had been Uklng and aaid "it will knock your nervoua system to a tr-you-well if yoa don't cat It out." Jealousy Theory Considered .' Th theory of Jealousy was baaed upon police knowledge that many similar crime have been committed In a storm of temper over th mora fortunate circumaUnce of th victim. A disclosure also waa mad that Mis Ssmneliou, 1 her diary, had abciibed to a hedon istic philosophy, polic aaid. Andrew said today that he had abandoned a belief that Mr. Judd had aa accomplice In th crime and. after examining the complete history of the case, bad concluded that ah acted alone. He said the principal evidence toward this end waa that ia mov ing the emDty trunka ah had dragged them. "If ah had an assisunt, th trunks would bar been carried." Andrew conclud ed. He believed she had plotted the death of th two women. Originally, he said, she probably nlanned to send the bodies in one trunk Sat the excessive weight caused her to change her mind, fearing too heavy a load would arouse suspicion. Chamber Plan on Relief Is Given (Continued from Pag On) tee the names of th person! to whom they furnish relief. 3. That no public sollclUtlon of funds, by any organization, be sanctioned by the chamber of commerce, except upon approval of the Governor' committee. 4. That If th Governor' com mittee shall deem It advisable to raise a fund for relief work, tbe campaign therefor shall be con ducted In Ha nam and all funds or relief contributed shall be dis bursed by th Governor' committee. S. Should any organization pre fer to have lu contributions to relief handled by th Governor's committee, we commend ach plan being In th InteresU of efficiency and economy. . We find that many Individ ual citizen (hould report to th Governor' committee the name of th persons whom they have relieved and are relieving. 7. Th chamber Is committed to the proposition that every worthy family (hall hav relief and aaslsUnce, but that there should be full Information aa to all relief given to prevent duplication and Imposition. fcd X. Kendall, recently em ployed by th local Governor's relief committee to carry on In vestigation work, was present at the director meeting, and thank ed th chamber for Its coopera tion. A. A. Austin, manager of the Wlllard Hotel, wa also present, and offered the hotel ball-room free of charge for any functions for th benefit of relief. A financial report of budget expenditures for the local cham ber from May 1 to October 1, 1931, was presented to th execu tive board.
