manufacturers in garments refer to
the amount Of business on hand as
below normal, although there is a

RAILROADS APPEAL
TO president I
The Common Carriers Ask for Re-
lief President Wilson Directs.
Attention of Public to

Attention of Public to
Their Needs.
The committee of railroad eXecu-
tives, headed by Mr.. Frank Trumbull,
representing thirty-fve of the leading
railroad systems of the nation, recent
ly presented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing the diff
hculties now confronting the railroads
of the country and asking for the CO.
operation of the governmental authori-
ties and the public in supporting rail
road credits and recognizing an emer-
gency which requires that the rail
roads be given additional revenues.
Vhe memorandum recites that the
European war has resulted in general
depression of business on the Ameri-
can continent and in the dislocation
of credits at home and abroad. With
revenues decreasing and interest rates
increasing the transportation systems
Of the country face a most serious
crisis and the memorandum is
strong presentation of the candle
burning at both ends and the perils
that must ultimately attend such
confagration when the flames meet
Is apparent to ALL In their general
discussion the railroad representa-
tves say in part: BY reason of leg
islation and regulation by the federal
government and the forty-eight states
acting Independently of each other, as
we'll as through the action of a strong
public opinion, railroad expenses in
recent years have vastly increased.
No criticism is here made of the gem
eral theory of governmental regula-
ton, but on the other hand, no in
genuity can relieve the carriers of ex-
Penses created thereby"
President Wilson, in transmitting
the memorandum of the railroad
presidents to the public, character
ICES it as "a lucid statement of plain
truth" The president recognizing
the emergency as extraordinary, CON
dnuing, said in part:
You ask me to call the attention
OF the country to the imperative need
that railway credits be sustained and
the railroads helped in every possible
way, whether by private cooperative
effort or by the action, wherever
feasible Of governmental agencies, and
l am glad to do so because | think
the need very real"
The conference was certainly a
fortunate one for the nation and the
president is to be congratulated for
opening the gate to a new world Of
effort in which everyone may cooper
ate.
There are many important prob
lens in our complex civilization that
will yield to cooperation which will
not lend themselves to arbitrary rul-
ings of commissions and financing
railroads is one of them. The man
with the money is factor that can
not be eliminated from any business
transaction and the public is an inter
ested party that should always be con-
suited and happily the president has
invited all to participate in the solu-
ton of our railroad problems.
