try where the railways are not pub
licly owned. The rates are 3 1-2 cents
a mile, frst-class, 2 1-2 cents, Sec
ond-class and 1 3-4 cents, third class.
It is possible to travel from Ber-
lin to Cologne, $40 miles, for $15
first-class, $40, second-class, and ST.,
third-class. The German state rail
ways also provide on the slower
trains fourth-class carriages in which
impecunious persons can travel for
infnitesimal small sums. These fourth.
class carriages, which are a great
boon to the working classes, would
be impossible under a system of pri-
vate ownership because they are pro-
vided by the surplus gained on the
other classes The cars are we'll
built, comfortable, efficiently heated
and we'll lighted.
The only serious drawback to pub
lie ownership in Germany is the slow
ness of the trains, which is perhaps
due to the absence of competition, for
the German express trains cannot
show any brilliant performances. The
fastest train from Berlin to Cologne
shows an average speed Of 45 miles
an hour. The fastest train in Ger

gives an average of about 50 miles
