GROUP Tenattive | Pio pebe bien interstate commerce commission for consolidation of railrads in the nrthwest were put Washington last Friday when officials of the three roads, contsituting the “Hill “group,” the Northern Pacific, Great Northern:and Chicago, Burfing- ton & Quincy, began the offering of testimony. General consolidation of railreads; as authorized by the trans-, “pertation act, has been planned by the comm to bring about 4 separa- tion, of the Great Northern from the other two lines named and its inclusion instead’ in a major railroad system along with the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul and the ore carrying lines en- tering Duluth, in northern Minnesota. Walker D. Hines, leading off for the Hill:group, most of whose chief execu- tives were present, challenged the de- sirability of the suggested split in present railroad associations, both from the point of view of public welfare, and of financial stability of the roads themselves, ~The Burlington, owned by the two northern roads for many years, had been built and Integrated Into co-operation with them, he as- serted, adding that separation would be extremely undesirable. Hale Holden, president of the Bur- lington, followed and in a detailed an- alysis of traffic and route conditions, declared the commission's proposals unsuitable, and bullt up in disregard of the necessity for maintaining a north and soute route through the west from the Gulf of Mexico. The fnti- macy of Burlington association with the northern lines was emphasized by description of existing arrangements for joint use of tracks, terminals and yards and exchange 0& traffic. Commissioner Hall, presiding, pref- aced the hearing by declaring tha: the commission. plan constituted no pre- judgment of the situation, but instead, an estimate of the situation and & ba- sis for discussion. He opened the™ sion by explaining that the commiss' was proceeding under tne general fn- struction of congress to prepare a con- sotidation plan that would combine all the major. railroads in the United States into 18 or 20 great regional sys- tems. The commission, he said, a Chicago, Milwaukee and St. thus Rete two strong ¢ys- However, the commission's plan js not to be tak- en a8 a pre-judgment of the situation,” Commissioner Hall declared “It rep- resents an attack at the general prob- lem and a basis for bullding up the fullest record of fact and argument which the commission can elfeit to aid it in decisions and the eventual action will be detated by findnges from the record.” Mr. Hinés explained that the Bur- lintgon stock had been purchased itn 1901 by the two northern fines as 4 de- velopment from a policy of joint oper- ation and joint use of terminals which the three companies - mutually had adopted as early as 1s86. Heavy losses are in prospect for the Burlington, President’ Holden testified, if it were divorced from its present as- sociation with the Northern Pacific and Great Northern.

The young man was employed at the Billings sugar factory.. He had no bad -habits, so far as known, his health was good and tis morals were clean and relatives are puzzled as to the cause which prompted him in the rash act. Roy R.

Salverson is confined’ to thé county Jail here for moving mort- gaged property without the consent of the mortgagor. He was originally ar- | rested on complaint of C. 8 Binxel, who charged Satverson with moving fiye head of mortgaged work horses from this county ta Tongue river in Rosebud county without his knowledee or consent. Upon Salverson’s arraign- ment in local justice court he was fined $400 and given a four-months’ sentence in the county jail, both being suspend- ed upon his promise to gather the mort- gaged property and tirn all over to the custody of the sheriff. Upon hie return home, however, Salvergson failed to comply with his promise and as 4 result he was again taken into cus- today and is paying the penalty for his remigsnesa.

A line also has been put thru from Billings, Mont., southward for the interchange of freight tonnage with the northern roads, he said, add- ing thaf long traffic routes had re- sulted, which could not be broken up without damage to the service as well as to the earnings of the property. He declared the consolidation propésed by the commission of the Colorado & Suthern, a subsidiary of the Burling- tan, with the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, would be a mistake. Such a step, he contended,- would destroy an im- portant north and south route between Texas ports and the interior. “The whole plan of the commission is based too largely upon the east and west traffic intsead of giving weight. to the independence of north and south traffic,” Mr. Holden said. “As the pop- ulation in the western territory>con- tinues to grow, the Denver gateway will increase In Independence as a cen- ter of large north ana south traffic. ‘The market for prodacts of the north- west, principally lumber will increase throughout the central and southwest- ern states and the>volume of fruit, vegetables and other products from the south destined for the northwest likewise will expand.” It ia somewhat remarkable, tn Mr. Holden's view, that none of the tenta- tive wvonsolidation plans in otner tor- ritories involved serious disturbance to existing relationships while the plan in the northwest was a direct cut- ting up of associated railroads. No Rood can be accomplishel, he conc! ud- ed, “by firat weakening « strong tine like the Burlington and then expecting to add any of the mileace cf the so- called weak lines t> ite present sys- tem.” Mr. Holden was cross-examine? at had issued 450 1922 tax receipts for a total of $30,000. Last year at this time the receipts were 300 more. There were 2,300 tax cards mailed from the treasurer's office this year. The treas- uret ts charged with the collection of $166,000 1922 taxes. During the month urer Wtison collected $1,200 in deitin- quent personal and real estate taxes for 1919, 1920 and 1921 taxes that’ had the interest, publication charges and penaity added to the principal sum.
