CANAL OPENING
kruttSchnitt Predicts Railroads
Will Lose Little Tonnage.

julius Kruttschnitt, chairman Of the
executive committee and the board Of
directors of the Southern Pacific Com
pany. just returned from a months
inspection OF the company's lines, de-
clared yesterday that little tonnage
will be diverted from the railroads on
the reopening Of the Panama Canal.
lie explained that this could be at
tributed to the fact that so many
ships are being used in Transatlantic
service.
Mr.. Kruttschnitt said that he was
very hopeful regarding the outlook for
the treatment Of the country's rail-
roads. Ten years ago." he added, we
decided TO go direct TO the public. Re
suits have been surprising. There IS
a better feeling everywhere between
corporations and the people. 1t is no
unusual thing now TO 20 from one end
of our system to the other, journey
Of IL 900 miles, visiting shippers over
the whole route, without hearing .
single complaint.
"Ten years ago this would have been
undreamed Of. The fellow who is do
ing the harm now is the politician, and
railroad corporations may rest as
sured Of the sanity Of the ultimate
outcome Of their case, because the peo-
pie are the final masters OF the poll
ticians and of the Administration
Mr.. Kruttschnitt said there had been
considerable traffic in troops and equip
ment in connection with the Mexican
border troubles Local passenger bust
ness of the Southern Pacific, its chair
man declared, has been much affected
by privately owned automobiles, more
so than by jitneys.
The only financing in prospect by the
Southern Pacific, according TO Mr.
Kruttschnitt. is the sale OF s6,000,OO0
equipment trust notes.
