CIR Outlook for 1912.

Chicago, Dec. 29.-Statistics relat-
ing to railway activity in 1911, show
ing decrease in improvement and in
crease in foreclosure sales of rail
road lines, were issued at Chicago
yesterday by the Railway Age Ga
zatte. New trackage increase fell
from the record OF 4121 miles in
1910 to 1905 miles in 43 states. Tex
as led with 413 miles.
Fewer freight and passenger cars
and locomotives were built, by nearly
a third, in several instances. Most
OF the new cars are either of all
steel or steel substructure construc-
ton The future is not considered
distinctly optimistic by the compiler
of the statistics, although pessimism
in his opinion, will not prevail at the
opening of the new year, because OF
the increase in business expected
Greater expenditure for improve
ments is predicted for 1912.

Der, the millionaire match magnate.
has sent letter to every member OF
Congress demanding reforms.
In addition TO the regulation of
freight rates, he demands that laws
be passed that will effectually limit
railroad and industrial capitalization
He declares the freight business of
the railroads costs each family SsI
year. This latter. coupled with the
other earnings of the railroads, he as
serts, has boosted the average rail
road cost per family to 1927 annually.
Barber starts his letter to the con

Continuing, he says: Personally.
I appreciate fully the Importance of
stability of vested rights in property

But | vigorously contend that the
izaton of corporate companies for
feits instantly the right to claim face
value for such capitalization in the
leyying of a tax upon the American
public for the payment of dividends
upon this watered stock. And in this
offense the railroads always have set
the pace.
Conceived in the master minds of
Huntington, Morgan, Hill and Harri-
man. this policy has been worked out
to a nicely These clothed the scheme
in the pretty catch phrase of com
munity of interests and cleverly set
about TO grab'all the through trunk

of the United States are taxed in rail-
road rates to maintain the annual diyi-
dends.
Despite this tremendous stock wa
tering, the railway net earnings have
advanced steadily and the average
dividend rate has more than doubled
In the last fifteen years.
In 1894 the dividend rate was 1.66
per cent Last year it averaged 3.6S
per cent and the railroads earned a
net income of 1892, ,153,2S0.

high prices.
Trust magnates disagree. All seek
to shift the responsibility. S. X. Gug-
eenheim says it is extravaganza on
the part of the laborer. Ogden Ar
mour says it is the law of nature.
This one problem of railroad
freight rates is the great economic
question of the age. Were it fairly
solved all other lines of commerce
and trade would soon adjust them

result.
