Doubtful Government Financing

Philadelphia Evening Telegraph: 1t
will be a serious situation for the Will
son administration if the new tariff
act and the income tax fail to pro-
vide sufficient revenue to meet the ex-
penses of the government for the next
fiscal year. Yet such now seems to
be the prospect. The estimates of the
secretary of the treasury for neces-
sary expenditures of government call
for a total of S1,1O8,681.777 for the
coming year, which is S22 900 in
excess of the amount appropriated for
the current fiscal year. On these es-
Inmates the appropriations committee
Of congress calculates that in the year
the treasury will be short 74,000,000
Of the amount necessary to meet the
demands. The customs receipts for
the first full month under the new
tariff showed loss of $4,500,000, so
that the appropriations committees

COMMISSIONER TALKS
10 United PRESS

CBy United Press Associations
Minneapolis, Dec. 29.-The axiom
that it is more important that jus
tice be achieved in large way than
that some specific standard shall be
promulgated and adhered to under all
conditions" was laid down by Inter
state Commerce Commissioner B. H.
Never today in discussing railway
rate making before the American
Economic Association.
LAS long as rival individuals en-
gage in trade, offering to rival con-
sumers the same or competing COM
modities, the railway rate problem
will continue to exist he said. 1.-THE
present system of private ownership
and system of regulations may give
way to different systems of regula-
tions and these in turn may be super
seeded by a system of public owner
ship, but none of these will terminate
rate controversies"
Value of property, Commissioner
Never said, was perhaps the most i'm
portant single factor, now unknown,
which will enter into the consideration
of railway rates. In the past volume
and market value of outstanding Sc
curities were submitted as evidence OF
the value of property to support a
rate or a rate structure under attack,
the speaker declared. In the future,
he said, after the physical valuation
has been accomplished outstanding Sc
curities against the valued property
should receive no consideration what
ever in the establishment of rates to
be collected for the public use of that
property.
The speaker declared that cost of
service, at present neglected, will be
EMPLOYED much more in the future.
He said that cost systems had been
applied to every important branch OF
industry except steam engineering.
Discussing public policy as factor
in shaping railway rates, the commits
sioner deprecated the fixing Of rates
solely with a view to meeting the
real or supposed needs of different
patrons or classes of patrons, ire
spective of the cost Of service. The
result of such policy" he said, "un-
der a democratic organization of So
ciety like ours would be to throw the
question of rates into politics, to ia
vor one branch of service or one com
modify at the expense OF othefS ana
to the financial detriment of the roads.
"The distance principle has been eff
fectively applied in attempts to break
up some of the socalled blanket rates,
and in dealing with the equalization
the cry of establishing rates for basic
industries. and its use is likely to be
even greater in the future. This is
another reason for pushing investiga-
ton into the cost of the service field.
The value of the property and fair
return thereon, the cost Of the service,
a sound public policy and other con-
siderations may and should be used
in the fixing of rates. No one can
state in advance the specific facts in
a rate problem nor the standard or
combination of standards best fitted
to the particular case and most likely
to promote justice to the parties in
interest"
