CARRIERS MAINTAIN 3 SITUATION IS SERIOUS Requested Relief Will Not Reach Prescribed 5.75 Per Cent Return, They Say. The railroads of the United States today laid their petition for a 15 per cent increase in freight rates before th Interstate Commerce Commission, and #sked that it be granted as quickly as possible to bolster their financial struc- ture. The increase, if allowed, is estimated to produce about $400,000,000 additional revenue annually. The new level would not shoot rates to a record height, ac- cording to railroad offictals. It is de- clared to be the only avenue of relief open to the carriers, and, it is added, still will keep their return at less than 4 per cent, as compared with 5.75 pre- scribed by the commission. An exhaustive analys's of the finan- cial.condition of the railroads is con- tained in the petition which comes to the commission through J. J. Pelley, chairman, special. committee of oresi- dents representing the Eastern group of railroads; H. M. Scandrett, chairman, special committee of presidents repre- senting the Western and Mountain-Pa- cific groups, and W. N. Cole, chairman, special committee of presidents repre- senting the Southern group. ‘Wage Question Set Aside. 1In this connection, it sets forth, the question might be raised as to the rea- sonableness of wages in view of the present situation, but that it is not de- sired to go into this matter, bota on account of the length of time that necessarily would be involved in deal- ing with any wage cut, and because the policy of Government and industry is that a business revival is predicted right now on maintenance of existing scales. The petition alos takes up, in passing, the question of competiiion from trucks, and suggests, significantly, that this problem will have to pe dealt with in the future, and perhaps in a way that will junk the present rate fabric by according _preferential treatment for short _hauls, where motor competition is stiffest, and revising classification of commodities. L, ot ., 2 carriers descr Y - fronted with an emergency threatening serious impairment of their financial resources and their capacity to assure the public a continuance of efficient and adequate service.” % Had Two Alternatives. When business ~ curtallment set .in late in 1929, the petition says, the roads had two alternatives. The first was drastic retrenchment in operating and calling capital expenditures in anticipation of a substantial decline in traffic and the second a continuance of the normal program in anticipation of the return ©f normal conditions. The first line, it adds, was open to fhe criticism that it would tend to in: tensify the business depression by throwing wage earners out of work and destroying their purchasing power and hitting at the market of those indus- tries producing railroad supplies. Fur- ther adverse reactions also would have been felt in other industries as the re- sult of such a policy, it points out. The second alternative, the petition #ays, was open to criticism from the standpoint of economical management. Nevertheless, it adds, this was the policy adopted and adhered to as long #s_possible. In support of this, it is pointed out, the carriers made capital expenditures approximating $498,000,000 in 1930 in the face of declining traffic and refained in employment wage earners whose services were not necessary. Stock Prices Decline. However, the petition continues, 1930 saw the return of Class 1 carriers, which takes in virtually every line in the coun- try, reduced to 3.54 per cent. Market prices of railway stocks declined and “rajlway bonds began to be affected by the approach of railway earnings toward the point where the available income of the corporations would fail to meet the relationship to fixed charges necessary to render them marketable to insurance companies, savings banks and trusts—a relationship which has become an in- vestment standard by which the value of railway bonds in all markets is af- fected.” The result was that the roads sharply cut their capital expenditures and fur- Joughed “many thousands of employes.” Just how greatly expenditures have been reduced is shown in a comparative statement’ for the past decade. The average annual maintenance expense of the Cl 1 carriers from 1925-1929, in- clusive, were $2,076,400,000. For 1930 they were $1,724,800,000, and for the first fcur months of 1931 $478,800,000, compared to $603,100,000 for the same period last year.

Derby, who lives at 4400 Pirst street southeast, made the admission, Capt. William E. Holmes, precinct com- mander, said, under questioning this morning.

The Settle bcy and Willlam von Gar- | rel, also 7, were on their way home from the Stanton School when the accident occurred. That was shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The youngsters, who were inseparable companions, were walking on Naylor rozd, near Thirtieth street southeast, when an automobile approached on the wrong side of the thorcughfare. The von Garrel boy leaped from the as the car approached at what he later described as a terrific speed, but his companion did not move so quickly. Hurled Into Gully.

PRESIDENT TELLS ASSEMBLY STATES ADVITALTOLS, Addresses lllinois Legislature on Changing Machinery of Government. ECONOMIC CONDITIONS BASIS FOR STATEMENT Hoover Declares Commonwealths Often Serve as Laboratories for National Ideas. By the Associated Press. SPRINGFIELD, Ill, June 17.—Pres- ident Hoover emphasized the duties of State governments today before the Ili- nois Assembly and warned that “our machinery of government ~must be shifted some” to meet the change in economic and other conditions. Mr. Hoover reminded the Illinois legislators that State governments are very often the “labcratories” in which national ideas are first tried out. He spoke before a Legislature which recently votea repeal of the State pro- hibition enforcement act. He stood be- side a Governor who vetoed that action. Speaks in Arsenal. The President spoke in the huge State Arsenal, across from the State Capitol, where the Illinols Assembly was in joint session with a throng of Reminding the assembly that he was to speak later today at the rededication.of Abraham Lincoln's tomb, he limited his remarks.

Staff Correspondent of The Star SPRINGFIELD, Ill, June 17.—In the name of an ever-grateful Nation Presi- dent Hoover today is in the old home- town of Abraham Lincoln, to dedicate the restored Lincoln Memorial in Oak Ridge Cemetery on the edge of this city. e ‘Thousands of persons from other sections of the State and elsewhere had come to'the Illinois capital to pay homage to the memory of the great emancipator and as the President bowed in response to the reverent greet- ing from the crowds on the streets he made it evident that he was conscious of being in the atmosphere of Lin- coln. Follows Grant’s Footsteps. It could be seen also that Mr. Hoover was happy not mercly because of the ;excomz accorded ‘hhnmh m oover, but because of op) y to again pay tribute to the humani- tarian hero of the Civil War. It was nearly 60 years ago that Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, then President of the United States, came to this city to dedicate Lincoln’s tomb. -On that occasion President Grant acclaimed Lincoln as “the Nation's greatest hero.” President Hoover will make a speech at the rededication exercises later to- day. His speech will be brief, but his words will be poignant in thefr simplicity and sentiment. ‘When President Hoover stepped from his special train heré this morning he could not help but be conscious of the fact that it was from a little station only a block away that Abraham Lincoln, a little more than 70 years said farewell to his friends and hbors and left for Washington to take over the Government during its dufin period, and then to meet his deal ago, neig!

Federal officials, spurred by & victory over Alphone (Scatface Al) Capone, in- dicated definitely today they looked to- ward New York as the next major ob- jective in their drive against the high- er-ups of gangster crime. From the Justice Department came word that Federal agents, under orders from Washington, already are engaged in quiet investigation there.

Although officials steadfastly refused to b: quoted, it was not denied that some of the scores of agents who spent months in weaving plece by plece the fabric of charges to which Capone pleaded guilty in Chicago yesterday would transfer their activities to New York.

They asked her, “Where is yu;n- madam?” She replied, “Upstairs, asleep.” ’I'hg bandits picked up some scarfs and draperies and bound the maid. Then they ascended to the second floor, where they were met by another maid, Before she could make an outcry the bandits bound her. Upstairs, the bandits came to the bed room occupled by Mrs. Menken.
