In discussing the commercial
achievements of this great age, we
shall approach the subject as the
historian chronicling events. This Sc
ries will endeavor to record In writ
ing the supremacy Of American men
and industries in the worlds affairs
and perptuate an appreciation of our
marvellous industrial achievements by
presenting simple facts, figures and
comparisons that are overpOwering in
their convictions.
America holds her proud place
among the nations of the earth today
on account of her supremacy in trans
portation facilities. The mighty minds
of the age are engaged in the prob
lens of transportation, and the great
est men in the history of the worlds
commerce are at the head of the
transportation systems of the United
States.
In the discussion Of transportation,
let us consider separately our Rail-
ways, Telegraph and Telephones, Ex-
press, Public Highways, Steamships,
Street Railways, Interurban and other
forms of transportation, and this ar
ticle will deal with railways.
The United States has the largest
mileage, the best service, the cheap
est rates, pays labor the highest
wages, and we have the most efficient
ly managed Of the railways of the
world. They stand as a monument to
the native genius Of our marvellous
builders, and most of the railroads in
foreign countries have been built
under American orders.
The railroads represent larger in
vestment of capital than. any other
branch OF human activity. The mile
age in the United States exceeds

the accepted distance from the earth
to the moon. We had in 1911, the
last year in which figures for all
countries are available, on the
earth's surface, 639,981 miles OF rail-
way divided as follows: United States
241,199, Europe 207,432 and other
countries 191,35O. The United States
has 38 per cent of the worlds mileage,
seven per cent of the estimated pop
ulation and about five per cent of the
area. The total capital invested in the
railways of the world is $50,OOO 0O0,-
900, divided as follows: United States
,000,000,000 Europe $25,650, 100000
and other countries s11, ,35O,OOO,O 900.
Reduced to a mileage basis the cap
italization is as follows: The world
$4,000, United States $4,000, Europe
$124000, and other countries $4,000.
A comparison of rates is equally as
interesting and the United States
takes the lead in economy and serv-
ice. The average rate per ton per
hundred mile haul is as follows:
United States 76c, Great Britain $3.50,
France $1.44, Germany $1.44, Russia
92c, Austria-Hungary $1.3O, Italy $3.50
and Switzerland $2.82
The average yearly pay of all rail-
road employees in, the principal coun-
tries is as follows: United States
$757, Germany 1892, Italy s345, AUS
tria 1922, Great Britain $279, France 4
$3.50 and Russia $204.
About 80 per cent, or 18S, 5000 miles,
of the railways of the world are
government owned. About half the
railway mileage of Europe is govern
ment owned.
A comparison of the economy, in
time and money and the convenience
in travel, will be made in a later
article.
