MONEY AND rHE RAILRoADs


The prosperity of American rail-
roads in these days Of low rates and
fast service is due largely to the
scientific reduction in the cost of oper-
ating.
Some years ago when the western
roads built into new and undeveloped
territory there seemed to be an ele-
ment of risk attached to il and money
could only be borrowed at high rates
of interest. Seven per cent. construc-
tion bonds We're sold at a discount,
but now that the country has devel-
oped and the railroads by good man
agement have established a large and
growing business, money can be had
/ for about three per cent, and so it is
found profitable to eXpend large sums
in Improvements which make it pOssi-
BILE to save money in daily operation.
The Burlington System of 5000
miles. for instance, has during the
past two years spent hundreds OF
! thousands of dollars in reducing
grades and eliminating curves, the re-
suit being that heavier trains can be
hauled with the same engine power
besides making travel far more com.
Portable and also less dangerous, thu:
reducing materially the loss inciden-
to elaine for damage and injury.
