Head Says.

Philadelphia. Nov. 26.-Samuel Rca,
president Of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
has announced himself as being en-
phaticallv opposed to any precip,tate re-
turn of the railroads to private manage
ment
Commenting on the proposal of the
Association of Owners Of Railroad Sc
c,lrities that the roads be restored to
their pre-war direction, MIR. Rea said:
"Thc experience of the world and that
in our country convinccs me more than
ever that the financial and political re-
suits IN every country emphatically con-
denim government ownership and opera
tion OF the railroads The question IS
what policy is the best for the future TO
enable the railroads not merely to cust
but To obtain the additional capital cs-
scntial TO insure the future progress OF
the country Transportation can he cither
the greatest obstacle or the greatest
benefit to progress.
The return Of the railroads To their
owners is IN the discretion al the
president, but Congress indicated pc
nod nj twcnty-onc months following
the ratification of tho peace treaty IN
order To give time for adjustments. The
most experienced minds in ralroadlnp,

fore. bc devoted to formulating basis
for our future railroad policy. which can
be carried out without rlptung the
business or social relations Of the country.
1T Is much too optimistic a view To
imagine that We arc not now subject
