Europe draws the bulk of its sugar imports from the Caribbean, which is an important source for the United States as well, Complicating the outlook for this country is the fact that Puerto Rican producers have warned that they may delay shipment of the 1946 sugar crop, now being harvested. They-are holding out for clarification on whether they will be paid more through higher price ceilings or continuation of subsidies. The same situation apparently applies to the Cuban crop, for which the U. 8. government is now W negotiating.

Indianapolis Railways’ first obligation is to the people we serve. In our desire to try whatever may be best for all our customers we have agreed to give the 61 cent token rate, fixed by the Public Service Commission (effective Jan. 21) a fair trial for a threemonth period.

We doubt that this new rate schedule will produce sufficient revenues to enable us to modernize our equipment and service and, at the same time, earn a fair return on the fair valuation of our property—to which every American business enterprise is entitled. The upward trend of wages, prices and costs inevitably

s to this conclusion.

We believe that it. will eventually become necessary for our Company to seek an increase in rates if we are to have a chance to furnish modern service, with modern equipment to the people of Indianapolis. Our Company will not seek an increase in rates unless, or until, it becomes absolutely necessary—and then only to the extent that may be necessary.
