rary disadvantage but the result
cannot fail 10 be highly promotive of
a real and wholesome instead of fc-
titious prosperity.
Like other lines OF enterprise the
railroads of the country have INDUCED
in excuses which are known to be
the direct cause Of business distempers
of the gravest character. and it be-
came necessary 10 apply remedies
more or less drastic to conserve the
rights and welfare of states, the public
and the individual as against the ag-
gressiveness and consciencelessness Of
the few.
IL was found that railroads were
not paying their due proportion Of
taxes that they did not sufficiently
consider the safety of their passengers
and that their stocks and bonds were
subjects of manipulation in the mar
ket TO the dctriment Of the people who
furnished the money for their con-
struction and operation. 1T WAS found
that the business Of the railroads was
loosely and extrayagantIy managed
and that they were operated for the
benefit Of the few rather than Of the
many. and that they were merged and
com bined in restraint of competition
and TO enable manipulatOrs 20 pile up
large private fortunes at the expense
Of the public.
With the application of the UNI
scrambling process the railroad opera
tors began to howl that their com
panies would be ruined, that a panic
could not be avoided and that the bus
mess Of the country would go to smash
if the policy of reorganization was
persisted in. Nothing like that has
happened, but business has had to
