Mol- lohan (D-WVa), noting- that the railroads have stepped up their buying of new freight car, said Friday the government could well raise its us incentive goal. Mollohan heads a House govern- meat operations subcommittee which last July looked into reports that, despite the Office ot Defense Mobilization's program lor. last tax writeoffs on freight oars, the freight car fleet was shrinking. He said In an interview that the, railroads' applications for rapid tax amortization certificates for new freight cara have climbed sharply during the last few months to pass the ODM'a goal of 4M.0OO cars. The applications total now stands at about 460,000, and Mollohan said It may exceed 600.000 before the Dec. 31 deadline on requests for the tax help. T have talked with defense mobillzer Hemming- about raialng the goal," he said. "Hemming was not unsympathetic. Mollohon said complaints have flowed into his committee about freight car shortages in the Pa ciflc Northwest and in the Mid west grain belt. He said a "se rious shortage" in Eaatem coal areas including his own state haa prevented mines Jrom operating more than about three days a week. Officials at the Assn. ot Ameri can Railroad said, however, there is no overall freight car shortage now although in certain localities demand for special types of cars TUBES AO VALUE GOOD ONLY WHIU - -V- - v .
