Plan To Increase Railroad Revenues Increases Proposed To ICC
Railroads seek a 20 percent rise in passenger rates and 9.13 percent freight rise plus a 50 percent Pullman fare charge and 20 percent excess baggage increase. Milk tariffs would align with freight rates, adding about 1.355 billion to freight costs and roughly 238.8 million to passenger revenue annually, with Western, Eastern and Southern territories sharing the total wage-related impact. Alfred P. Thom notes the wage award may reach 626 million, about 26 million more than initial estimates due to overtime. The ICC did not comment or indicate hearings.

Zionist congress to confront Palestine reconstitution aims
The authors refuse responsibility for the conference action, noting no portion of 21 000 pounds would be raised in America. The decision to call a new congress seeks a plenary Jewish assembly free of the old dispute over political versus religious status. The planned congress will focus on reconstituting Palestine as a Jewish homeland with a main budget of 82 000 pounds left for the incoming executive to decide.

Disabled Veterans to Be Transferred to Consolidate Care
Washington July 26 Transfer of disabled service men from Saranac Lake New York to other institutions forms part of a broader plan to concentrate veterans and facilities for better treatment. Director Cholmeley Lares of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance said orders instruct district supervisors to encourage transfers unless men are unable to move. He stressed the goal is to improve conditions, not remove veterans, and that consultations should occur, though personal reasons should not block moves to centralize care for about 17,000 patients.
