The situation As Il Is.

The announcement Of the suspension
of work In the Florida East Coast Rail-
way shops made in the Evening Rec
ord was a severe blow to businessmen
only unfortunate for the employees,
permanently located here, but for all
classes of business as well. Its effects
viii be felt by decreases IN all lines OF
business. The main reason assigned Is
that decrease In the earnings Of the line
calls for q decrease in expenses. While
Il, IL hoped this shutdown will not be
for long, Il points TO a two-fold lesson
which Il might be well TO dwell on lit
tie at this time.
The first lesson is that the railroads
Of Florida, notwithstanding the seem
ing increase In business, that has tax
ed their facilities In many cases, are
not making money, which the clamor
Of many sections would indicate by the
expressions Of many legislators at the
last session Of the Legislature, whose
sole aim and cry was the placing OF
more taxes on the railroads, and the
disposition toward decreasing their
earning capacity by trying TO put IN
force rate reduction.
With the Florida East Coast Rail
way, IL has long been understood that
Il would be years before the line along
the East Coast Of Florida could be made
paying investment from the develop
