montha the government continue«
the «tandard return allowed the line«
while under it« control. ftaani on the
pre war earninga. Hut thia return
ia subject to certain legislative dir
ection« b, congrew* that will affect
operation« during this period which
end* Auguat Slat next. Weexprct.
however, within thia aix month« to
maturr plan« for the future. Thaw
plana had to be held in abeyance
thua far because of uncertainty aa
to the legislative conditions to ac
company the return of the road«
to their ownera for operation, and
th ewe conditions have l>een determ
ined by congress only within the last
few days. We naw have tn study
what ia before ua in law and in fact
ami get our Iwartags anew.
The operating organixation as It
existed under Southern Pacific man
agement ha* le-en tn
extent
diaarrangwl during the |M»ri'»d of
federal control and operating nrac
tices have been changed, but the
benefit of any now practice« that
may have proved efficient in the
public aervica during the goyern-
mrnt control period, will, of course,
be retained.
W<- could not purchase equipment
after we entered the war IwH-au««-
the government took control and
war financing occupied * the field,
while during the rest of the time
the <|u«*stion of adequat«' credit had
to wait for answer in congressional
action
On the other han«! the lo
comotives and car« in service have
been subjected to the most active
u«e and new rolling stock has not
In-en renewe«! throughout the coun
trv in normal number» for the in
crease <>f normal traffic. The bur-
dan of extra ordinary war move
ments fell heavily ut»»n all kind« of
rolling «tuck, making it impossible
to shop the equipment at the proper
time, and repair work waa further
delayed by shortage «luring the lar-
g><r part of the war prri«»d in both
men an«! material.
Th«- proWern before u« at once,
therefore, ia h«»w to put to the i»r»l
use the i>a.«*>-ng«-r train car« and the
freight car« that are in aervice. and
h«>w to put into good condition for
nervier every pi«-ce of mpii[linent to
l»e had
Thia problem ia Iwfore ev
ery railroad. Abreast of this i« the
larger question whether the earn
ing* under the new law. the "Trans
portation Act of 1920,** will l»e
enough to establish the eredit of the
railroads at a point where they can
provide themselves with the facili
ties of all kinds that they nerd to
give the public proper service. W»>
have the will If only we can find the
way« and mean«.
These are not
easy t<> And. for an aosumed earning
of ev«-n •> per <*ent, and n<> assurance
of that, ia n-.t attractive tn anyone
having money to Invent when money
is worth 7 or N per cent in the open
market.
Hence, the «•ffeet of the new act
of congress upon earning« and upon
the eredit of the railroad« cannot be
immediately determined, This act
provide« fur a rate-making struct-
ure. under which, during the next
two year« the railroad« will I m - per
mitted to earn up to
per cent
annually on the value of the rail-
r<»ada aa may I h > determine»! ny the
Interstate Commerce Commission
The Commission ha« power al It*
discretion to increase the*- possible
earning« to ti per cent, the added
one-half of I per cent to l»e use»!
only for improvement« to the prop
erty
No guarantee of any kind ¡«given
to any railroad, hut half of any
earning« over li per cent arc to l»e
taken by the government to make
loan« to railroad« that may need
them f<>r improvement« or to care
for obligation* falling due, or to ob
tain and lease equipment to the car
rier« that cannot aif<>rd to buy it.
Obviously these elementa in the
aituatiun will have to be considered
in making our plana. The Interatate
Commerce G>irmi*non ia the decid
ing l»ody with respect to value of
the propertie«, as well as the rate*
which are to yield the 5i per cent
return thereon, and much will de
pend upon the viaion and prompt-
neaa of action with what that Itody
accepts its gn at reaponaibilitiea
In the meantime, it i« particularly
desirable. in view of the ahortage of
equipment, that every ••(l’ori Iw
made by ahippern and th* railway
force« to continue heavy rar loading
an«! train loading, and to low no
time in loading and unloading car«.
lieiieving that we will have the
full eii-operation of th«- people «erved
by our line« in dealing with the
problema presented, ’It ia due them
that in thu* aiding ua they should
know what problems we have tn
meet. You ean real assure«! we are
not idle with respect tn them.
