Chicago, 111.. Dec. 20. The Chi
cago, Milwaukee, St. Raul & Pacific
railroad will inaugurate passenger
service at 2 cents a mile on four
minor divisions on January 1, H. E.
Pierpoint, vice president in charge
of traffic, said tonight.
The new service will be an experi
ment to determine whether lower
railroad passenger rates would be
effective in combating motor bus com
petition, Pierpont said.
The four divisions where the ex
periment will be tried first are: The
Wisconsin Valley, in central Wiscon
sin; the Racine, from Racine to
southwestern Wisconsin; the south
ern Minnesota; and the Des Moines,
running north from Des Moines, la.
None of the divisions are on the main
line.
Permission of the Wisconsin rail
road commission has been granted for
the experiment in that state, and
such permission was not needed in
Iowa and Minnesota, Pierpoint said.
Three-Month Experiment.
The experiment will be conducted
three months. Accommodations for
the 2-cent service will be day coach.
"After the experiment, if it is suc
cessful in combating motor coach
competition," Pierpont said, "we
probably will extend the service un
til eventually it is used on the main
lines. It is primarily a service to
gain the local traffic which the motor
bus has caused railroads everywhere
to lose."
The usual passenger rate, railroad
officials said, is 3 6-10 cents a mile
for interstate traffic, and the same
rate is ust-d for intrastate traffic.
The St. Louis-San Francisco rail
way, serving the southwest out of St.
Louis, had previously announced it
planned to institute a 2-cent passen
ger rate on certain sections of its
line. Today, the Western Passenger

INQUIRY ON BREAD PRICES
Jefferson City An investigation
of bread prices in Missouri's larger
cities and towns will be made by the
attorney general's department to de
termine whether prevailing prices
have responded to the lower wheat
market. Attorney General Stratton
Sharted announced Friday. If it is
found baking concerns are getting
an unfair profit and violating state
laws, prosecutions will follow, the
attorney general said. A reasonable
reduction and a resulting Increase in
consumption would aid both the con
sumers and producer of wheat, the
attorney general said.
We wish to express our sincere
thanks to our neighbors and friends
who rendered their help and sym
pathy during the sickness and death
of our dear husband and father and
the beautiful flowers, words of love
and comfort, will long be remember
