Santa Fe Defends Intrastate Fare Position Against Greyhound
J. R. Hitchcock, general manager of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, rebutts Pacific Greyhound Lines president W. E. Travis over California intrastate fares. He argues Greyhound set its own rates and that California’s railroad commission has not ruled on them, warning that Greyhound’s monopoly harms Californians and that Santa Fe should be allowed to compete to lower fares and improve service. He cites Greyhound’s 1934 net operating revenue of 1,499,979.34 and 24.7 percent return, noting 1935 results.

Wheat Restrictions Lifted on Cotton Men
The Secretary of Agriculture approves a new ruling lifting all wheat planting restrictions for 1935 on farms under cotton acreage reduction contracts. Cotton growers signing 1936 contracts with wheat planted on land rented in 1935 must set aside rented acres elsewhere on the farm per the 1935 contract provisions.
