By BEN -WARD OTTAWA (CP)—Railway sub- sidy provisions in the govern- ment’s proposed transport legis- lation .were critized by the CPR which said ‘it ex- pects to face reduced profits after the bill goes into’ effect. CPR Chairman N, ‘R. Crump and President Ian Sinclair said in a brief to the . Commons transport committee that the plan to.wipe out normal railway subsidies in eight years should be revised to extend the period. ON THEAIR The following program list- ings are published free of eharge as a public service and appear as presented to us’ by the stations concerned. A similar request was made to the committee a week ago by CNR President Donald Gor- don. The transport bill provides the railways the first year with a subsidy of $110,000,000° which ‘decreases by $14,000,000 every year until it reaches’ zero.

But the subsidy reduction pe- ‘| riod would not give the railway sufficient time te reach this situation. ‘ Mr. Crump and Mr. Sinclair also urged the committee, which is making..a_ detailed study of the massive bill, to take a careful look at some of its other provisions. Again reiterating a point made by the CNR, they said the proposed new Canadian | transport commission, - which will regulate the activity. of all BETTER LIVING BEGINS WHEN YOU VISIT CHANDLER BROS.

Both CPR executives said that freight rates are going to inerease when the bill becomes law. But they said the trend would be gradual.

The section setting a maxti- mum rate formula for shippers with no effective alternative to rail transport was too res trictive. It provides that a cap- tive shipper may be granted a basic rate equalling” the rail- way's variable costs. plus ‘150 per cent. This basic rate applies to carloads of 30,000 pounds and is scaled: down for heavier loadings. Mr. Crump and Mr. Sinclair said the reduction for heavier loadings should not be included. The 30,000-pound basic rate had been recommended to simulate truck. competition and this was | sufficient protection, leaving rates on™ heavier loads to nego- .| tiation between the carrier and shipper.
