Only a million and a half dozen were Imported In 1913. Of dried yolks and frozen eggs there ... were im ' ported in 1918 only 228,000 pounds, but in 1914 the importations grew to .400,000. an Increase of 1,500 per fiit.

The jus tice of such a procedure was recently passed upon by the Supreme Court or West A'irginia and the decision is' so far-reaching that we have asked L. E. Johnson, president of the Nor- . folk and Western Railway whose road contested the caso to briefly review the suit Mr. Johnson said ln part: om6 ten years ago, passenger raree were fixed by the legislatures of a large number of states at two cents a mile. As a basis for such economic legislation, no examination was made of the cost of doing the business so regulated, nor was any attention given to the faot whether such a rate would yield to the rail way companies an adequato or any net return upon the capital invested in conducting this class of business. "Such a law was passed in West Virginia in 1907. The Norfolk and AVeetern Railway Company put the rate into effect and maintained' it for two years. Its accounting during these two years showed that two cents a mile per putenger barely paid the out-of-pocket cost and noth ing was left to pay any return on capital Invested. It sought relief fr0rn the courtB. Expert accountants for both the State and the Railway Cot. pany testified that the claims of thr railroad were sustained by the fact Two cents did not pay the cost ni carrying a passenger a mile. Tl, ' State, however, contended that tb. railroad was earning enough rurpliH" on its state freight business to give ; fair return upon the capital used l i its passenger as well as its frelgh' business. For the purposes of tfc case, the railroad did not deny thb but held to its contention that tb': State could not segregate its pas senger business for rate flxlna- with out allowing a rate that would t; sufficient to pay the cost of dolni business and enough to give om, return upon the capital invested in doing tho business regulated. Thi: was the Issue presented to Urn Si preme Court Its decision resnond. to the judgment of the fair-mindeo sentiment of the country.
