passengers are higher in every coun
try in densely populated Europe
than in the United States, and in
some countries, very much higher
Ina densely populated country rail-
roads can live with much lower
charges than in a land where
population is sparse and the
possible travel small In the United
States the population is $50 persons
to each mile of railroad. In Swe-
den, it is 1860; in Switzerland,
LBS; in Great Britain, LIT; in
Germany, 1900; in France, 2.312 ;
in Belgium, 1920; in Denma' *,
$3.50; in Norway, 2,73O; in 'he
Netherlands, 5000; in Austro>
Hungary, $3.50; in Spain, $500; in
Russian Europe, $500; in Italy,
$3.50; in Portugal, $500; in Rou>
mania, about 5000; in Turkey,
about $1,000; and in Greece about
100000. There is not country in
EutOpe in which there are not
three times as many people to cup
port mile of railroad as there are
IN the United States. But for the
enormous freight traffic here, higher
passenger ra'es than in Europe
would be unavoidable.
