Seek Ways To Cut Costs Of Railroads
Railroad executives seek new methods to reduce operating expenses amid a freight rate increase dispute. The Southern Trailway system already spreads the work, cuts staff, and trims salaries to lower payroll from 19% to 16%. Directors of the Association of American Railroads plan a special meeting to review ICC approved rate hikes and seek quick industry relief. Senator Borah says freight raids have reached the limit and White House talks must yield broader relief. AAR President Pelle y says exemptions in the ICC order would blunt the rise to about 0.8%, or roughly $175 million annually based on 1956 traffic.
