OPPOSITION TO RAILROAD RATE BOOST LIFTED

' INDIANAPOLIS. July 18. The ob Jectlons of the Indiana Bituminous Coal Operators association and the Tcrre Haute Chamber of Commerce to proposed increase of the flat sum of 15 cents a ton on coal freight rates in Indiana were withdrawn Tuesday at the hearing on the question before the Indiana Public Service commission. Samuel A. Royse, attorney for the operators and the Terre Haute organ ization, said in asking to withdraw the objections, that the action had been decided upon after a conference with the railroad representatives. The operators had proposed an in crease of a flat sum, suggesting if any higher freight rate were granted they should be on the percentage basis. Representatives of the railroad continued testimony before the commission today In an effort to show that on account of greatly advanced cost of operation the roads must have higher freight income at once or face financ ial disaster.

DELINQUENTS ASKED TO "COME ACROSS"

. NEW YORK, July 18. The fact that millions of dollars in Red Cross dividends declared by corporations have not been paid over to the organization by the recipients was made known In an appeal to the share-holders in such corporations, issued here today by the American Red Cross war finance committee, to do their part in helping the. "Men who in the misery and sadness of the firing line look to us for aid." A great quantity of stores and equipment can be bought with "the millions oustanding in Red Cross dividends," the appeal declares, and "the generosity of the corporations will have been in vain if shareholders fail to give the dividends to the Red Cross. Without these dividends the Red Cross will be hampered in its work of mercy." The French prepared for 900,000 wounded for the spring offensive, it is pointed out, and "to prepare for our wounded the Red cross must avail itself of every dollar it can get. For want of something better newspapers have been used to tie up the wounds of soldiers abroad. When our boys are wounded and surely they will be are we going to let them suffer still more through our neglect? To withhold a Red Cross dividend means withholding relief from our wounded." : HAGERSTOWN, IND.
