Members of the Western and At
lantic Railroad Commission of the
State Legislature are In Chattanooga
Thursday investigating the Chatta
nooga terminals and other Tennes
see property of the. State road, fol
lowing a meeting held in the State
apltol Wednesday.
It virtually was decided at Wed
nesday’s meeting that whatever road
:« given the control of the Western
and Atlantic will be required to dou
ble track the lim from Atlanta to
Chattanooga, and that in order to se
cure this Improvement the lease will
have to run for a longer period than
heretofore.
Whether this arrangement will
meet with the approval of the Nash
ville. Chattanooga and St. Louis, the
present lessee of the road, and which,
;t is understood, desires a renewal, is
not known.
Southern Anxious to Lease.
It is generally understood, however,
•bat the Southern is anxious to lease
the line and is willing to double track
the road on condition that the lease
run for a long term of years.
The commission lias not yet been
able to obtain any definite figures on
the cost of double tracking the road,
i hairman Gunby Jordan presented a
letter from Vice President H. D
Spencer, of the Southern Railway,
who stated that the cost of the Im
provement could hardly be estima'ed
successfully until a survey and report
had bedn made by a competent engi
neer. Mr. Spencer, however, stated
that the last double tracking tho
Southern system did, from Chatta
nooga to Meridian, Miss., cost $30,000
a mile, while the coat of double track
ing the line from Atlanta to Gaines
ville ran from $20,000 to $80,000 oer
mile.
Based on these figures, rbout $50.-
000 a mile Is considered a fair aver
age for the cost of double tracking
the Western and Atlantic.
Possibility of Sale Suaqestion.
Mr. Jordan told the other members
t the commission that certain ques-
ons should be asked any road that
• plies for a lease of the State line,
hich indicates the possibility of the
•mmission recommending the sale of
• property when it makes Us report
he Legislature.
The roads, he declared, should be
’ ed how much the} are willing to
■ y for the right of way, how much
v will pay for the road with the
-operties not necessary for the op-
■ation of the road taken out, and also
•v much they will be willing to oav
' r the Atlanta terminals on the plaza
stem proposed by the Atlanta
’hamber of Commerce.

Wednesday meeting and made the
