L railroads all over the country are curtalllng
expenses by cutting off hands, and this there is
cause First comes the administration with Its
revised tariff which has caused many factories to
shut down. The consumption OF coal having
stopped, mines must close. The railroads are
not hauling the freight toey used to, so they must
1ay off hands Then their freight and passen-
ger rates are cut; they are forced to build bet
ter depots in many places. Above ALL they are
harrassed by resolutions of investigation pushed
by peanut politicians like Senator LEA, who are
seeking notoriety by arraying the prejudlces, OF
the people against corporations. It's wonder
railroads do business at all against such odds.
