The matchmaker is the in dustry's critical economic plight brought on by the fail ure of freight traffic to keep pace with the expanding econ omy in the post-war years and a drastic decline in passenger volume. Despite a new record Gross National Product, net operat ing income of the nation's 113 Class 1 roads in 19G0 was 20 per cent below the disappoint ing 1859 level and the lowest since 1947. Hardest hit of all were the eastern carriers whose net was almost 50 per cent below the 1959 figure and even worse than in the darkest days of the Great De pression. Since railroad operations are tied closely to the level of the economy, the predicted low-level of industrial opera tions in the first half of the new year casts doubt on any significant improvement in the industry's 1961 earnings. Growing Trend However, the growing trend toward rail consolidations promises a long-term improve ment by the elimination of un economical duplication of fa cilities and service and high plant investment. The officiating agency at the altar of rail mergers-the Interstate Commerce Commission-has repeatedly bestowed its blessing on these unions. "The climate is certainly right for (rail) mergers," an ICC commissioner said re cently. But most rail officials are convinced it will take more than streamline mergers to pull the industry into the 20th Century. New transportation legisla tion is needed to permit the industry to compete more ef fectively with truck, air and sea carriers, these officials say. Dismal rail statistics ap parently have put Congress In a receptive mood. The Industry Is hopeful that President-elect John . Ken nedy's campaign pledge to ad vance "more realistic" rail legislation will bear fruit. Although some legislative gains have been achieved-par- liculnrjy in regard to greater freedom to abandon unprofit able service and government emergency guarantees for loans-rail mergers at present are the industry's biggest aco in the hole. Two mergers were consum mated last year and a handful of others are in the works or pending before the ICC. But the acid test is shaping up in the efforts of the Penn sylvania and the New York Central to form two massive competing systems in the East. Giant Step The Pennsy already has taken a giant step toward as sembling its own super-sys tem through the proposed throe-way merger of the Nor folk St Western, Nickel Plate and the Wabash. The Pennsyl vania owns one-third of the N&W and all of the Wabash. Meanwhile, the Central bogged down In a costly stock battle with the Chesapeake & Ohio for merger with the Bal timore & Ohio. The fight end ed in a stand-off with neither side garnering enough B&O shares to effect a consolida tion. The only recourse for the Central is to persuade the C&O to agree to a three-way merger. Thus for the C&O has spurned this offer contending that the money-losing Central would be too great a burden for such a merged line to carry. Time is running out for these roads. Should the Penn sy succeed in getting the jump on them they would find themselves surrounded by the nation's biggest road and Its controlled lines, tipping the eastern rail power balance perhaps unalterably in favor of the Pennsylvania.
