York. New Haven and Hartford Rail

f27,s60,000 In the plant Of the New
York. New Haven and Hartford Rail-
road is emphasized in the annual report
Of the director. made public to-day.
report says that while the gross
earnings wer" the largest in the COM
pany's history the volume OF business In
New England overtaxed the facilities
OF the company and OF many manufac-
turers and merchants. There was much
unrest also among many classes OF men.
the report says. The company had to
deal with ffty-seven strikes and there
was difficulty In getting an adequate
supply Of fuel.
To make the desired improvements.
says the renort. there Is needed the CO.
operation OF the public. the owners OF
the property and the employees" Con
tinuing the report says In part:
New England roads have to pay
freight on all fuel coal for their loco
motives. and for a road like the New
Haven these freight charges increase
the fuel cost between $4,000. 600 and
1000. 900 n year as compared with the
same amount OF coal used by n like
tho Pennsylvania. Baltimore and Ohio
and Delaware, Lackawanna and West
crn, and yet the passenger and freight
rates on the New Haven are no higher
than on those roads. and In many cases
are lower. The New Haven derives
nearly one.half of its earnings from
passenger trains and the average dis
lance travelled by each passenger is
only nineteen miles. A large proportion
II he freight cars handled are loaded
with less than carload merchandise. and
! the average haul OF all freight Is only
eighty-four miles. This large ropor
ION OF short haul passengers and mer-
chandise Ids largely to the expenses.
"The Federal Government is now un-
derpaying the company for the carriage
of mail and parcel post at least $1,000
900 a year. II legislation and economic
conditions force upon the road large In
creases In wages and higher prices for
material. the public authorities should
allow increased rates II the road Is to

Recently because OF pressure from
four labor organizations the President
recommended and Coniress passed a
misnamed eight hour law which MAY

Increase in expensce-between i.500.-
200 and s.. 0O0. 900 n year. There are
fewer than 1900 men In these organiza-
lions on the New Haven system and
fewer than 400, 900 on all the railways
in the United states.
There are 25.169 stockholders Of the

Der OF bondholders). but their influence
has not been exercised for their own
protection. The directors and Officers
are doing their utmost to safeguard and
improve the property, but the active In
