Railroads Lower
Fare Under Protest
WASHINGTON, May 6.—Railroad
passengers throughout the country
were assured today of new low fares
—for a time at least.
A group of major eastern rail
roads Which have vigorously ob
jected to an Interstate Commerce
commission order slashing fares fil
ed new rates in conformity with
the order, but served notice they
would challenge it In the courts.
Of the major eastern roads only
the Baltimore & Ohio was not a
party to the schedules filed today.
It already has conformed with the
commission ruling and will not at
tack it in court.
Effective June 2, the ICC pre
scribed fares of 3 cents a mile in
Pullmans and 2 cents a mile in
coaches. The present fares are 3.6
cents for both classes of transpor
tation plus a Pullman surcharge of
approximately four-tenths of a cent.
In fixing the new fares, the ICC
ordered the surcharge eliminated.
At the outbreak of the World war,
James Watson Gerard was United
States ambassador to Germany.
