stop making rails il they cannot get bet
ter price. We seem to have reached n
crisis on steel rails, the outcome OF which
must be an advance in prices, II all preyi-
Gus experience is OF any value. IL Is wor-

steel industries. II j. wholly exceptional.
No other branch is as much depres led,
because in no other branch has there
been manifested the same tendency TO
