Must Give Considera- tion to Future of Lesser Roads in Its, Decision on Mer- its of Unification Plan, Ralph Budd, Great Northern Pres- ident, States Minneapolis, Oct. 28.—()—Testi- mony showing the conditi . of nine short line railroads which operate @ total of 389 miles of tracks in Minnesota and other northwest states and which must have consid- eration as an essential part of the trasportation etructure in the terri- tory affected by the fhe Great Northern-Northern ic merger, oceupied the foreground at today’s yess of the unification hearings ere. Of the nine short lines, three serve Minneapolis and five are owned or operated in Minneapolis. Of the nine smaller roads, however, only three have been able to show operating profits.for an average of the six years of 1921-1926 inclusive. Six of the lines reported deficits, including one of over $100,000. The witness who presente the figures was H. K. Dougan, assistant gen- ‘jeral auditor of the Great Northern eo Ave Opeensa ree Are Op; All of the nine short lines have intervened in the northern unifica- tion proceedings but only three have announced opposition to the merger scheme. These three roads are the Minnesota, Western Electric short line terminal company and Minne- apolis, Anoka and Cuyuna Range. While the introducion of testi- mony relative to the short lines, some of which are feeders and oth- ers are competitors of one or the other of the Northern roads, appar- ently marks an interruption in the task of building up-evider.ce in sup- port of consolidation, the figures of the earnings and operations are. of prime importance in the case, Ralph Budd, president of the Great North- ern, explained today. “These short lines have a place in the transpé@rtation picture of the northwest,” Mr. Bu said. “In fact, such a picture could not be complete without them. The inter- commerce commission will have to give consideration to the future of these lesser roads, in its decision on the merits of the Nor- thern unification plan. We regard it as a useful move to bring on this block of evidence now, and have it on the records, for use whenever the piven needs it.” 0 Considered About 40 short line roads in the all are to be considered in the com- pilation of -evidence by. thern roads. Most of tl tervened formally. The nine are being discussed in today’s testi- mony are Minneapolis, Red Lake, and Manitoba, which operates 39 miles of track in Minnesota; Minne- sota, Western, 99 miles in Minneso- ta; Minneapolis and Rainy River, 78 miles in Minnesota; Short Line Terminal company, nine miles in and around Minneapolis; Minne- apolis, Anoka and a Range, 27 miles between Minneapolis and Ano- ka; Midland Continental, 77 miles Guaranteed - 100% Wool What You Don't Know Can Hurt You’ That is especially true when buying low-priced clothes that have no name and carry no guarantee REMEMBER OUR KORRECKT BRAND OF Suits and Overcoats Guaranteed by the manufacturer and by us to give complete satisfaction or we will replace same with a new garment Call in and ask to see them. 30 Extra Trousers, $5.00 ya THE LINE WITH MORE HAND TAILORING ...
