Tiny upturned brims, a wide use of ribbon, lovely new failles are' just a few interesting new notes.

Prucliciilly all the money the railroads take in is immediately put back into circulation. Kailroiids do n large volume of business on a narrow margin of net income.

Out of this 13.7 cents-of. net operating income, 12.2 cents went for interest on bonds and other fixed Charges, leaving 1.5 cents for stockholders. Adding 6.9 cents of income from outside sources, net cor porate income was 8.4 cents, of which 4.9 cents was paid in dividends, leaving 3.5 cents available for appropriations and surplus. , Gross earnings of the railroads in 1922 were $1,567,000,000- more than in 1917. This $1,567,000, 000 and more too, was immediately paid out again, as follows: SIIIN.OlNl.llllil In nildiil uuKre lo inllinail rinploM-s i:t.1.IHHMHl in mlilnl t-ost of coal, mostly miiirr's waKvft 1 2It.IHIil.ulHI Mr ailitlllonnl tai-i .MHi.oim.tiuo aililltiiHiHl ror materials anil supplli-s lari;i-l-11-lirt'M'titlnK wnjfi's. The stockholders and bondholders of the railroads got none of the increase. It is significant that good times are always coinci dent wilh heavy buying on the part of the railroads ami that bad times are periods of light railway pur chases. The Union Tacific System is one of the most im portant enterprises west of the Missouri River. Its li early 50,000 employes, and their families, constitute a buying power which is the main reliance of many businesses. The purchases of the Union Pacific Sys tem from firms located on the System, or which have offices on our lines, aggregate millions of dollars each month. The railways are planning to spend hundreds of millions of new money during 1924 to better serve the public.
