The railroad chiefs pointed out to the president the ditliculties which the carriers face as the result of the financial conditions created by the war. Most important of these problems, they claim was the refinancing of obligations that have matured or are about to mature. They showed

the president a list of matured secur- j

The president was asked to favor an amendment to the interstate commerce act which would permit the Interstate; commerce commission to consider conditions in passing on increased rate applications instead of confiing itself to the specific, issues involved in the case at the bar.
