pared with s2.O47.776 in 1914.
The fact that the balance of income
showed "a loss Of only s524.4O5 Is due. IN
the opinion OF President Harrison, to the
greatly increased efficiency In the oper-
a.ing of the road IN to a reduction
In service. In showing how efficiency
has cut down expenses he draws a
parallel between the fiscal year OF 1908,

similar conditions prevailed.
