The Railway Valuation Bill

on March 1, 1918, the bill for the
valuation of the railroads of the
United States became law. The
idea when first proposed was consid-
cred fantastic. Those charged with
the duty of determining fair rates
felt the need of valuation of the
railroad property whose earning pow
er their DEGREES affected. Railroad
men, on the contrary, vigorously OPP
posed such public appraisal. But the
plan steadily gained favor: Certain
States, as for instance Michigan,
Wisconsin, Ohio, Texas, California
and Washington, Incorporated the
idea in their railroad regulation.
The law is most carefully drawn.
The scope of the valuation proposed
embraces not only railroads, but "all
the property owned or use by every
0nterstate) common carrier subject
to the provisions OF this act" This
includes with the interstate railroads,
the interstate telephone and telegraph
lines, the Pullman car lines, the ex-
press companies properties, the
steamboat lines jointly operated with
interstate railroads and pipe lines.
Briefly. the Interstate Commerce
Commission is instructed to 'inves-
tigate, ascertain and report value"
ito make an inventory" listing the
property lin detail and to SHOW
the value thereof" and to classify
the physical property" In the deli
cate work Q8 valuation itself the Law

prescribes certain methods and data
and then leaves the application of
the work to the discretion of the
commission. Thus the data specified
are the original cost to date, the cost
of reproduction new. the cost of re-
production new less depreciation; and
then in case of lands. rights of way
and terminals, the difference between
first cost and present value of the
property itself, and also the differ
ence between actual cost by condem-
nation and present estimated cost by
condemnation. To elucidate the fig
ures of original cost to date, the iden-
tity of first Investment must be traced
forward by noting the distributions
effected by increase of stock, by
profits realized by the sellers on
property sold to the railroad, by
banking commissions and syndicate
arrangements, by increments real
lied directly from earnings of the
property In course of operation.
Finally for the purpose OF auditing;
as it were all the disbursements must
be allocated against the specific prop
critics for which they were expended.
As modifying the investment signifi-
canoe of the property appraised, the
value of donations by individuals,
the community, or the State must be
noted and offsetting such donations,
must be shown the values of specific
rate concessions in force.--J. shirley

was born. She became a famous

She came of the famous family of
Jansenists-the members of a divi-

to restore the ancient doctrines, ac-

according to the Catholic church,
were heretics. So jealous was An

cause that it is not strange that An
