Reduction of 10 per cent in carload freight rates on farm products, cou- rled with reduction in railroad wages, was proposed by the rail carriers yesterday to the Interstate Commerre Commission as & substitute for thte order of the commission, dated Qo- tober 20, reducing rates on hay apd grain ehipments. The substitute sohedules would be effective *for hn experimental period of six months.” The commission was also asked to re- open its decision of October 20 In order that argument might be given in_behi of the railroad’s proposal. The reductior suggested in carload shipmonts. it was explained, would cover grains, hay, cotton and cotton- seed and its products, except meaul and oil citius and fresh fruits live stock and dalry products. Scope of tae proposed cut in wages was mnot indicated, tre statement merely stat- ing that “the benefits of the reduc- tion thus obtained” from the Railroad Labor Board shall be passed on to the publio in reduced rates. Cuts to Conmstitute Part. Any reduction made in rates since September 1, 1920, would “constitute & part of this 10 per cent” under the rallroad’s suggestion, which specifies further that the proposed resolution shall not apply to the movement of such traffic wholly within New Eng- land. “The effect of this propos: said the application, “will be an im- mediate reduction in carload rates on the products of culture and the products animals which are mentioned, but ‘as soon as, and to the extent” that, a reduction in wages is obtained from the labor board on the nrnnoled application, a further r duction in rates (except as meanwhi e put into effect) to be distributed among the users of transportation in such manner as this honorable com- mission may determine.” 'he proposal thus deals imme- diately, and without waiting for a reduction in operating costs, in the manner stated, with the needs of agriculture and undertakes to make further reductions not confined to agriculttire as soon as further reduc- tions are made possible.” Apply With Equal Force. / “Your petitioners,” the application continued, “submit that, if there is to be a reduction in rates for the benefit of agriculture, there seems little justification for confining such reductions to rates on grain, grai products and hay, or to any particular section of the country. The economic reasons in favor of reductions apply with equal force to other products of the farm aud to other territorial sections. “Your petitioners, in view of the condition and of the special needs of the transportation industry, do not belleve that any further reductions in rates than those herein mention- ed should be'made until thgre is a reduction in operating costs.” ‘This proposal was made by the carriers, the application pointed out, for the purpose of alding in the economic readjustment and reli the “serious economlc distre: the agricultural industry, desp! fact the financial condition of ‘the railroads does not warrant such a move.

C., who was taken into eustody here November 9 by city detectives, on a charge of soliciting funds without a license. Mr. Mellen was discharged after a hearing in Central police collrt, November 16. “After a personal interview with Mr. Mellen,” said Mr. Pritchard’s statement, “and after considering in connection therewith the results of the independent investigations, I am convinced that Mr. Mellen is abso- lutely honest, upright, and high- minded; and that he has no merce- ry or financial purposes to serve, and that his efforts on behalf of his organization are based solely on the principle of furthering the interests of the disabled soldier. I have come to the conclusion that he is in every way worthy, that he is absolutely sincere and honest in his purpose; and he is. entitled to the assistance and support of our citizens and resi- dents who believe with him on_the problem in which he is interested.” The Disabled Veterans’ Relief Soci- ety has its headquarters at 1013 16th street. and publishes the Disabled Veteran magazine, a monthly publi- cation.
