The plan proposes that this new terminal company lease to the two railroads the Btatton tor 25 years, with option at the expiration of this period on a renewed lease for an- other 25 years; and that these two roads have the management of the property and pay a rental of $275 ,000 annually, plus taxes, in- surance, maintenance, and repairs, plus 13000 annually for corporate administrative expenses of the new terminal company. The plan, before becoming oper- ative, must be approved by the In- terstate Commerce Commission and the Federal Courts. In a statement Issued by Lau- rence F.
