Independence was the keynote of the
address made by B. D. Caldwell. vice
president Of the Delaware, Iackawanna
& Western. in charge Of traffic, before
the Pfttsburg, Pa. Traffic club at it's
recent banquet.
Mr.. Caldwell is recognized as one of
the principal traffic officials Of the east.
He said in part:
1T is scarcely conceivable how any
thoughtful man, familiar with the
growth of the transportation and ship
ping interests IN the last 80 years,
should not perceive that one could not
have grown, could not have continued
to exist without the other. If the his
tory Of other countries is any criterion,
government-made rates in eliminating
elasticity and freedom Of action, must
of necessity narrow instead of extend
markets and check, instead of promote
development
lsSecret practices are usually evil
practices and the railway business is
hand, it is a well known law that evil
cannot Withstand the light Of day;
publicity is and must be an unfailing
remedy for evil practices, both corpOr-
ate and individual, and is just as much
needed to restrain the shipper as the
carrier.
There will always be questions Of
discrimination between localities and
ZaTSWdXEr WHICH are udllIdi DECdASC
Of the huctuation of trade centers and
general business condition. These are
usually defensible because OF varying
interests and honest differences Of opin-
ion and are subject to remedial treat
nent as between the carrier and ship
per. but discrimination between indi-
vfduals by secret practices is indefensi-
Bile either as to good public policy or
good business morals.
such practices create with both the
shipper and the carrier such uncertain
tv as to undermine all confidence,
which. on the other hand publicity
creates. They foster and perpetuate
evils of both intention and judgment,
