4 remarkable evolution has taken place in the last few years with the railroads of this country. Methods used 20 years ago to get business for the railroads cannot be used today. With the control or supervision of the public over tho affairs of the railroads, has come a serious situation in the relation of money invested in the Tailroad business. The public has assumed control and jurisdiction over the railroads without assuming in any sense the responsibility for loss or without any effort to acquaint the railroad managers how to get the money GO meet the loss.
 lt Is absolutely necessary that some condition obtain that will enable the railroads to get necessary money. All ipvestments are dependent upon the ability Of the people in control to get money into these investments. Money has much courage. It will take chances Of losing interest and Of being lost altogether, providing it has a fair show of being returned with something added Everybody must have the help of investments in his constructive work. whether in railroads or in other lines

There must be some way of working out. either by guarantee or otherwise, some plan by which investors in railroad stocks will receive more than 6 per cent This is one phase of the rail road situation which is not at all understood by the public. If the pub lie understood the situation, 1t would be different. The general public seems to think that all the railroads have to do is to sell bonds, but they forget that the railroads must sell these bonds in competition with in- vestments that offer great returns, by reason of the fact that other in vestments have not the handicap i'm posed against the railroads by adverse state and national legislation.
