RAILROADS
Complex» statistics of the- Interstate Commerce Com
mission of the Class 1—that is, the large—railroads of the
country for the year 1923 having recently become avail
able, the Railway Age publishes in its current issue an
analysis of these statistics to show just what happened to
the railroads during the decade that included the period
of the great war. It uses as its basis the figures for each
average mile of railroad.
These statistic« disclose some striking facts. They
show, for example, that the increase in the total earnings
of the railways was $13,222 per mile while the increase in
their net return available for paying interest and divi
dends was only $380 per mile and that, therefore, the
security owners received directly and indirectly only one-
thirty-fifth of the total increase in earnings. They also
show that the increase in operating expenses per mile was
$10,180, and of this amount $7,170, or almost 70 per cent,
was paid out in increased wages. They show also that
of all changes that occuired on the railways the increase
in taxes was relatively much the greatest.
“ The investment in railway property,” the Railway
Age says, “ increased from $65,700 to $86,147 a mile or
31 per cent. The increase in net capitalization per mile
was only $5,465 while the increase in property investment
was $20,447. The wide difference* in these figures is
chiefely due to the fact that a large part of the investment
in property was made from earnings of some companies
which paid no dividends but invested in their properties
all the earnings they had left after paying interest on
their debts.
“ The increase in the average tractive power of loco
motives for each mile of line operated was 28 per cent and
the increase of fn iglit ear capacity per mile of line was
16 per cent.
“ The increase in the number of employees per mile
operated was only 5 per cent while the increase in the
wages paid on each mile of line operated was 125 per cent.
With these increases in the capacity of equipment and in
the number of employees the railways handled 36 per cent
more freight business and almost nine per cent more pass
enger business per mile of line operated.
GOVERNMENT IN SECRET?
Why this concerted effort to keep secret certain past
goings-on in the Oregon state house? Why try to cover
up school fund shortages, compensation fund shrinkages
and foreclosures of soldiers’ bonus loans and like short
comings of public officials? AVhat about the following:
The owner of a 320-acre dry farm in Harney county
offered it for sale for $700 .Unable to get a buyer at that
figure, he tried to sell it for $600. Failing in this, lie ap
plied to the state for public school money and was given
a loan of $1200. Then he abandoned the farm, left the
country, and has never returned.
Of course, the state had to foreclose and take over
the farm that the owner was unable to sell for $600. The
loan of $1200 of school money was made August 30, 1910.
Not a penny of interest has ever been paid. Besides the
$1200 thus taken out of the principal of the irreducible
school fund, the public schools have lost the interest on
the loan for a period of 14 years, one month and 18 days.
Interest on the loan at 6 per cent compounded semi-an
nually would amount to about $1565. In addition to loss
of a part of the principal and the loss of interest, the state
has lost the taxes on the property since it was taken over.
