@:e: ‘Railways’ Profits Over $9 Million Since "32.

By RICHARD LEWIS The present operators of Indianwpolis Railways, Inc, earned a profit of $9,683,400.20 since 1932) when they bought the system from receivership, testimony before the Indiana public service commission showed today. The commission resumed its hearing after a five-day recess on the railways’ petition for a permanent increase in token fares from 6% to 8'4a cents. The company is asking the increase on the’ ground that it would lose money at the 6'i-cent rate and would be financially unable to improve service which is now admittedly inadequate. City and state witnesses are now appearing before the commission in opposition to the company’s contentign that it would lose money at the 6%-cent token rate. Introduce New Expert The $9,683,499.20 net profit figure before taxes was read into evidence by Allen D. Pisk, chief accountant | for the commission. Meanwhile, as Public Counsellor | Glenn Slenker, presented his witnesses for the state, the city of Indianapolis ‘introduced a new ex-
