The carriers are permitted to make the applied for advances in rates ex- cept the lake and rail and rail and lake traffic, rates on bituminous coal and coke, rates on anthracite coal and iron ore, and rates that are held by unexpired orders of the commis- sion. After further consideration the com- mission permits advances to be made also on cement, starch, brick, tile, clay and plaster. Of these commodities no advances were permitted by the decision of Aug. 1. It is estimated the advanced rates will increase the annual income of the roads $30,000,000. Joint rates between official classifi- cation territory and the territory south .of the Potomac and Ohio and east of the Mississippi ‘may be' Increased not to exceed 5 per cent. Interstate rates to and from New England also may be increased not to exceed 5 per cent. ‘While present existing differentials among various Atlantic ports are preserved the rates between any two of them also may be increased 5 per cent. Blame th eEuropean War. The application of the Eastern roads for a rehearing of the rate case was made on Sept. 15 last on the ground that the European war and other stat- ed reasons had changed conditions materially since the previous decision was given. The petition for a reharing stated that it was made in behalf of 112 rail- road companies, comprising thirty- five railroad systems in “official classi- fication territory.” It sets forth that since the com- mission’s previous decision “facts and™ circumstances have arisen” warrant- ing a rehearing on the subject. Spe- cifically it was stated that since the previous decision the complete in- come accounts for the fiscal year end- ing June 30, 1914, had become avail- able. “The unforseen European war,” the petition went on to say. “has brought about an unparalleled destruction of wealth and dislocation of credit throughout the civilized world. It is certain that the competition for capi- tal will be keener and interest rates | higher for some years to come than in any corresponding period within living memory. The emergency thus resulting is extremely serious.” ON NEW TRADE COMMISSION Chief Qualification for Membership. Washington, Dec. 19.—President Wilson has let it be known that he had made “common sense” the chiet qualification of the five men he is to nominate as members of the new trade commission within the next two weeks. He does not desire theorists for the commission but men who will be able to intelligently deal with business conditions in the United States. Politics, it is said, will not govern the makeup of the board, although at least one Republican probably will be named. Among the numerous men whose names are under consideration are Jo- seph Davies, commissioner of corpo- 19.—The - inter- | ° Succgssfully Grafts Arm of One . Man on to Another.
