Express Rate Boost Granted to Express Company
The Interstate Commerce Commission approved a 124 percent rate increase for the American Halfway Express Company, effective on one day’s notice in Washington. Unofficial estimates say the move could raise the company’s annual income by about 45 million dollars, though wage awards for employees and potential further rate requests may adjust this impact. The commission noted previous earnings of 206 percent for railroad carriers and indicated carriage costs to be adjusted with rail connections as needed. The ruling leaves room for additional applications by the company to meet rising wage and operating costs.
