He said, that with the Increase of traffic on downtown streets the trainmen have all they can attend to without talking to passen gers, and urged , that If the railway company Is to aid In keeping down accident that the ordinance be passed. Councilman- Vandervort spoke against the ordinance. "I think that we ought to reverse the whole thing. I don't think we have been called to legislate for the a P. I think it's up to the railroad to make its own orders against the trainmen talking to pas sengers. The company's business does n't belong to the council at all." McClelland said that the ordinance should include trainmen. a well as passengers, . and explained that on many occasions he had seen the vesti bule of car "Jammed with trainmen" talking to the motorman.

J BEACH APPEARING, I IN PERSON v Thursday Wednesday March 3-4 BLICH THEATER" JOURNAL WAOT ACS PAT TO THE PUBLIC:- Yesterday the railroad lines of the Southern Pacific Company were returned to their owners for operation. As a war measure they have been in charge of the govern ment during the last two years and two months. The stockholders in that period had nothing to do with the management. ' - '. '' in taking over the management of this property, the policy of the owners will be to give as satis factory service aa lies In their power in return for the patronage given us; to seek the co-operation of shippers and passengers and of the Whole people In having our service reasonably responsive to the public needs. We have to ask the patient forbearance of the public during the readjustment period of the next six months. It is true during these six months the government continues the standard return allowed the lines while under its control, based on the pre-war earnings. But this return Is subject to certain leg islative directions by congress that will affect operations during this, period which ends August 31 next. We expect, however, within this six months to mature plans for the future. These plans had to be held in abeyance thus far because of uncertainty as to the legislative conditions to accompany the re turn of the roads to their owners for operation, and these conditions have been determined by congress only within the last few days. We now have to study what Is before us in law and in fact and get our bearings anew. ' . The operating organization as It existed under. Southern Pacific management has been to some ex tent disarranged during the period of federal control and operating practices have been changed, but the benefit of any new practices that may have "proved efficient in the public service during the gov ernment control period will, of course, be retained.. ', We could not purchase equipment after we entered the war because the government took control and war financing occupied the field, while during the reHt of' the time the question of adequate credit had to wait for answer in congressional action. On the other hand, the locomotives and cars in ser vice have been subjected to the most active" use and new rolling stock has not been renewed through out the country in normal numbers for the increase of normal traffic. The burden o extraordinary war movements fell heavily upon all kinds of rolling stock, making it impossible to shop the equipment at the proper time, and repair work was further delayed by shortage during the larger part of the war period in both men and material. . ; The problem before us al once, therefore, is how . to put to the best use the passenger train ears and the freight cars that are in service, and how to put into good condition for service every piece of equipment to be had. This problem is before every railroad. Abreast .of this Is the larger question whether the earnings under the new law, the "Transportation Act of 1920", will' be enough to estab lish the credit of the raihoads at a point where they ean provide for themselves with the facilities of all kinds that they need to give the public proper service. We have the will if only we can find the ways and means. These are not easy to find, for an assumed earning of even 6 per cent, and no assur ance of that, Is not attractive to anyone having money to invest when money is worth 7 or 8 per cent In the open market. ' Hence, the effect of the new act of congress upon earnings and upen the credit of the railroads can not be Immediately determined: This act provides for a rate-making structure, under which, during the next two years, the railroads will be permitted to earn up, to 5 1-? per cen annually on the .value of the railroads as may be determined by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Commission has power at its discretion to increase these possible earnings to 6 per cent the added one-half of 1 per cent to be used only for improvements to the property. . . . ' .- , ' ' No guarantee of nny kind Is given to any railroad, but half of any earnings over .6 per cent are to be taken by the government to make loans to railroads that may need them- for improvements or to -care for obligations falling due, or to obtain and lease equipment to the carriers that cannot afford to buy It. .1 - ' . . Obviously these elements in the situation will have to be considered in making our plans. The In terstate Commerce Commission Is the deciding body' with respect to value v( the properties, as well as the rates which are to yield the 5 1-2 per cent return thereon, and "much will depend upon the vision and promptness of action with which, that body accepts its great responsibilities. - In the meantime, it is particularly desirable, in" view of the' shortage of equipment, that every ef-f fort be made by shippers and the railway forces to eontiuue heavy car loading and train loading, and to lose no time in loading and unloading cars. - ISelieving that we will have the full co-operation of the people served by our lines in dealing with the problems presented. It is due them that In thus aiding us they should know what problems we have to meet. You ean rest assured we are not Idle with j-espeet to them." : WM. SPROULB, President. Si I
