The answers received have been most
gratifying to the label department of
The Call. They demonstrate that the
spirit of the campaign, that is to say
patriotism and loyalty to California,
which has been constantly voiced by
The Call, has become the dominant fac
tor in the contest.
Labels of made in California goods
are being collected because 1t will in
crease the consumption OF our factory

tending the scope and output OF our
manufacturing plants. This has been
one of the educational features of the

The activities that are resulting from
this campaign are the best evidences
OF the earnestness with which people
are working for home industry For
instance. a procedure much in vogue is
to notify the dealer that unless he fill
out the orders with home products they
will be returned II the offense Is
committed a second time, the threat is
carried out and q warning sent In
that IL it ever occurs again he win

quired some new, unique and irresist-

reward Of boosters of California prod

were obtained to be given in exchange
for the. labels or certain California
products of indisputable merit that ap-
pear advertised on The Calls label

The widespread enthusiasm that has

SUBURBAN LINES
LOST s3,247, ,554
IN YEAR, SAYS S.P.
According to Railroads Fig
ures, Ferry System and
Alameda Trolleys Cause
an Immense Deficit
PUT LOSS ON EVERY
PASSENGER II CENTS
Report Does Not Intimate
Company Will Abandon
Electric Service

For several days the Southern Pacific
has had experts delving into its books
TO get some important fgures on earn
ings for the public. A remarkable dis
covery has been made.
For more than a year the company
has been spending 31-6 cents to carry
each passenger per mile on the sub
urban electric system in Alameda
county and charging less than 1 cent
per mile. Nineteen million passengers
were carried, the expense was sa,61s,-
2sz, the revenue was 1885, ,7o7.15, and
the company lost just s3.247.554S5.
These figures for the fiscal year end
ing June so last were made public in a
statement Issued yesterday There is
no reference in the statement to the
financial report issued IL days ago, in
which the company reported that the
gross earnings scared S11, ,249. 900 above
the gross of the preceding year and the
net earnings climbed $4,795,100.
C. w Durbrow, one of the company s
attorneys. testified recently before the
railroad commission that the company
lost S364,00 during the fiscal year 1912
5 in the operation OF the new electric
suburban system. But since then the
company has discovered that the loss
is more than s3,000,000.
OTHER CHARGES ADDED
The loss Mr.. Durbrow Inquired was in
direct operating expenses. But now it
IS found that by adding the interest
and taxes and other fixed charges the
figures go up 10 times as high.
These statistics are taken from the
actual records OF the railroad" an
nounced the company. The people and
carrier alike are benefited by a knowl-
edge of the facts, for each is entitled
TO the worth of the dollar it expends.
For every mile the Southern Pacific
company carried a passenger on its
ferries and trains on suburban trips it
received less than a cent while the cost
of the same service was 1-6 cents.
That is to say, on all the $4,000, 600
travellers the railroad company lost
ais cents for every mile il trans
ported each of them. Or, again, each
passenger, on the average, paid Z 1-5
cents. regardless of distance, and yet it
cost the carrier "a and a fraction cents
to serve him.
LOSS IL CENTS ON EACH FARE
'On every one of the 19,000.o00 pas
sengers the company was out little
more than IL cents for having had him
as A customer"
There is no mention in the announce
ment of this tremendous loss that the
Southern Pacific intends to abandon its
suburban electric service In Alameda
county.

Calls Label Gathering
Campaign Proving
It's Worth

tThe Call is giving something for
nothing, remarked one youthful MEM
Der of The Calls label collecting army
as he started to empty capacfous
pockets that appeared to be bursting
with packs OF varicolored labels pre-
paratory to receiving first baseman's
glove and a baseball bat in exchange
for them.
Thus succinctly, though not alto
gether truthfulIy, appears the keynote
of the tremendous success that has
marked the label gathering campaign
launched by The Call for the purpose
of Increasing the demand for goods
made In California. and in this way
promoting the material prosperity of
the state.
The Call. while going to much ex-
pense and trouble I'm providing the big
variety of splendid premiums for the
reward OF all collectors of labels. feels
that these rewards are being given in
exchange for something of far
greater value and which will mean
very much to the prosperity of all
persons in California--that is. a. spirit
of state loyalty and fairness TO Cali
fornia manufacturing concerns.
To the general public that has been
in the habit of spending money on pur-
chases and receiving no return what
soever for their discrimination of goods
parture inaugurated by The Call is one
in which a substantial reward is
placed upon an object heretofore value
less. AS a consequence the tide of pub
lie discrimination is turning to those
goods advertised IN The Calls label
page. These articles are of standard
qualities, easily the equal of all COM
they offer a means of acquiring cook
cry sets. foodstuffs and knickknacks
and useful articles of all sorts.
However, The Call initiated the cam
paign with the object of bringing Call
fornia to the front rank as a manufac-
turing state. This was done because
of two considerations. One was that
approximately a half billion dollars
was being drained from the state by
outside factories that might as sue
cessfully be located here. and the sec
ond was that the Panama canal, with
its influx of population, made 1T i'm
perative that we have factories in
which to employ the newcomers.
1T was clear that California was suf-
fering from dearth of factories. How
to alleviate this condition was a prob
lem that seemed to have but one solu-
tion. This was that the products of
California be given preference by all
persons within the state. once this
was done, it was reasonable to expect
that the national factories rather than
lose business would erect a branch
factory In California. and that new fac
tories would be built to cater TO the
peoples demand for California products
| of standard merit.
Now 1t is one thing to discover a
remedy for a condition and another
thing to put 1T into effect. The argu-
mentative and the sentimental appeal
had been often made on behalf of the
home industries. The condition re-
