Commenting on the inequalities Of this
schedule, Mr.. Murdoch says:
Like other features Of the law of 1873.
it may have been-doubtless was-fair in
its day; but it has become aatiquated and
moss-covered, until to-day the table is
ridiculous. In 1873 a 40-foot postal car was
quite an achievement in car-building. and
a compensation for its space and haulage
at the rate of 62lz cents per linear foot
was considered reasonable; but the world
Of car-bullding and car-hauling has moved
on and left this old table of pay standing
absurdly out of date. for in those DAYS a
45-foot car was so unusual, apparently,
that In providing pay for it the rate was
raised from 625a cents per linear foot for a
40-foOt car to 66 % cents per linear foot
for a 45-fOOt car, and the 50-foot car was
so unusual and its weight so extraOrdi-
nary in the average train in those days
that the pay provided was 50 cents per
linear foot, and 55-foot cara monster
in 1S79-was paid for at the rate of 30 cents
per linear foot, and 6o-foot car was put
into the law presumably as concession
to the possibilities OF the future.

To-day nearly all full railway postal
cars are built sixty feet in length. Usually
the department, when it authorizes a
4O-foot car on a line, has a 6O-foot
car drawn for il. and the space Of such

voluntarily twenty feet of extra space
gratuitously, other railroads that are paid

paid not a propoTtiOnally increased rate,
but at an increasing rate of pay out Of all
