The widespread effect upon the industries of the
country as a whole is beyond measure or appraise-
ment at this time and agree with the nsstent and
widespread public concern the gravity of the
situation and the consequences of surrender by the
railroads in this emergency.
In like manner we are deeply impressed with the
of responsibility to maintain and keep open
the arteries of transportation which carry the life
blood of the commerce of the country, and of the
interruption of service over the railroads. but the
issues presented have been raised above and beyond
the social and monetary questions involved, and
the responsibility for the consequences that may

Public Investigation Urged

The questions involved are in respectful judy
ment emnently suitable for the calm investigation
and decision by the public through the agency of fair
arbitration and cannot be disposed Of to the public
satisfaction in any other manner.
The decision of Commission or Board of Arbi-
tration. having the public confidence will be accepted
by the public, and the social and financial rearrange
ments made necessary thereby will be undertaken by
the public. but in no less deliberate nor orderly
manner.
The railroads of the country cannot under present
conditions assume this enormous increase in their
expenses. If imposed upon them, it would involve
many in early financial embarrassment and bank
ruptcy and imperil the power of all to maintain
their credit and the integrity of their securities.
The immediate increase in cost, followed by other
increases that would be inevitable, would substan-
TALLY appropriate the present purchasing power of
the railroads and disable them from expanding and
improving their facilities and equipment to keep
abreast of the demands of the country for efficient
transportation service.
