rivals but even their own stockholders
and occasionally the company itself,
is becoming common remark. This is
done by Withholding such knowledge
from the stockholders and the public
until the criminal directors have
made their market commitments and
then precipitating the knowledge up
on an unprepared public.
That it is dangerous to oppose some
carrier officials has become apparent
to numerous shippers, when a short
age Of cars puts them practically out
OF business.
The subject is a large one; it can
not be disposed of in one day; it can
not even be fairly stated by any one
man at any one time: the outcome
must be a series Of compromises and
tentative attempts at general Justice
In the meantime, the suggestions Of
Mr.. Nissen that strict surveillance be
exercised over all corporations by
their creator, the State; that their
obligations be limited to actual CAPT
tai paid in: and that all charters re-
quire adequate public service, should
commend themselves to far-sighted
carrier officials, and trust nlagnates,
as well as to the general public.
