This is not exact. The com- mission said that if the railroads’ income was too low they should not try to put all the burden of increasing them on freight rates.

If the fare raise goes through and you have to pay from a dime to $3 extra on every railroad ticket you buy, ask yourself what will happen. You will travel less, won’t you?
