and Eastern Electric tunnel project
designed to admit q now concern into
the railroad field northcastward from
Boston.
1t is difficult to figure out how tho
Grand Trunk reverses Massa husctts
policy as described by the News Blu
reau. The Grand Trunk already has n
line into this region. and to the south.
1t has grant to build from Provi-
dence to the Massachusetts boundary.
1t was conceded by the New Haven
company and admitted by the railroad
board that Legitimate room existed for
road southcastward from Palmer.
| How then docs n grant for the Grand
Trunk to build this road come into
conflict with long-established Massa-
chusetts policy? Not a whit more OH
viously than a similar grant to tho
New Haven company.
It has been Massachusetts policy to
accept railroads as monopolios, to reg
ulatc them as such, and to prevent the
construction OF supcrfuous milen go
whether proposed IN the name of COM
petition or otherwise. This proposod
limo was not regarded as supcrfluous
and - the Grant was made; and If
was made to the Grand Trunk not Mt
all ms II competitor against the Now
Haven but because it held nositior
on either side Of the new field to be
crossed and could offer distant or
through traffic facilities equal Mt
least to those Of the New Haven,
Fly way of further Illuminating
traditional Massachusetts railroad mol
icy. let us take the project of the So
called ilampden railroad corporation
to connect say the Central Massachu-
sctts division Of the Boston and Maine
with this city. Tho first question to
arise under NASSAU huso;ts policy
would he whether or not tho propose
line would serve any public need not
now amply provided for. As existing
lines westward from Boston and
northcastward from New Ycrl,
through Springfield come within 10 or
Is miles of each other at what we NAV
call their -espective ends AS such a
connection would bring the Central
Ma ssachusctts into more direct touch
with larger sources Of traffic (horc
ard. Mt Holyoke): as 1t would provide
n new through route from Boston to
New York; and as there is business
enough to make new route between
this city and Boston self-suppor,ing
without injurlng the Boston and Al
bany, which concededly needs more
track between here and Boston;-the
railroad board would probably decide
that the public interest fairly admit
ted Of the proposed construction. and
n certificate would issue. And no one
for moment could think that the old
