REPORT MADE ON FUTURE OF
 RAILROADS

In dealing with the question of what may be done with the railroads in the future the interstate commerce com mission in its annual report to the congress says:
 The conditions, without precedent or parallel, which the war has pro duced, now press upon the congress
 matters of the gravest national and in ternational concern.
 While we do not deem tho present
 conditions and moment opportune in which to recommend concrete propos- a.s for legislation, we may indicate certain lines of inquiry which must be pursued in order to reach sound con clUsions.
 Whatever line of policy is deter mined upon. the fundamental aim or
 purpose should be to secure trans
 portation systems that will be ade- Quate for the nations needs even in
 time of national stress or peril. and that will furnish to the public safe. adequate and efficient transportation at the lowest cost consistent with that service. To this end there should be provision for CD the prompt merger without friction of all the carriers lines. facilities and organizations into continental and unified system in time of stress or emergency; CD merger within proper limits of the carriers lines and facilities in such part and to such extent as may be necessary in the general public inter est to meet the reasonable demands of our domestic and foreign com merce; (3) limitation of railway con- struction to the necessities and con venience of the government and of the public. and assuring construction to the point of these limitations: and (4 development and encouragement
 of inland waterways and co-ordina- tion of rail and water transportation systems.
 "Among the plans which will doubt less be proposed are the follow',, 0D Continuance of the present plan of federal control; (2) public owner ship of carrier property with private operation under regulation; (3) pri-
 vGtc operation under regulation with governmental guarantees; C) resump- tion of private control and manage ment under regulation: and C5) pub lie ownership and operation Addi- tional plans and notifications or com l binations of those enumerated might be listed
 "If the policy of private ownership and operation under regulation Is con tinued the following subjects will re
 Quire legislative consideration: 0) Revision of limitations upon united or cooperative activities among com mon carriers by rail or by water: @ emancipation of railway operation from financial dictation; (3) regula. tion of issues of securities; (l estab-
 lishment of a relationship between federal and state authority which will
The Cordova daily times., 1918-12-16

eliminate the twilight one of jurisdic- tion and under which a harmonious rate structure and adequate service can be secured, state and interstate; (5) restrictions governing the treat ment of competitive as compared with non-compettive traffic; (6) the most efficient utilization of equipment and provision for distributing the burden of furnishing equipment on an equi- table basis among the respective car riers; @ a more liberal use of ter minal facilities in the interest of free movement Of commerce: and (S) limi. tatiOns within which common carrier facilities and service may be furnished by shippers or receivers of freight.
 should the policy of public owner. ship and operation be adopted. there must be considered: CD The just and fair price at which and the terms under which carrier properties are to be acquired; (2) prohibiting the oper. ation of railways as q fiscal contriv- | ance, insuring their administration in the interests of the convenience and commerce of the people. requiring that they shall be self-supporting. and that their rates shall be properly re. lated to the asCertained cost of serv. ice, and retaining and extending the economies and advantages of large scale production in transpOrtation. 'o) responsibility and relationship of the railway administration to congress and other federal authorities and 10 the states; tI guarding against the intrusion of party politics into rail way management; (5) a status for railway officers and employees under which the railway service will attract and retain the best talent; and Gp maintenance of a tribunal for the de termination of controversies which will inevitably arise even under pub lie operation.
 The above outline is mere emu meration of some important points {, be considered. We will at an appro. lr'ate time report to congress yuch information, suggestions or rcCommep- dations as we believe may be of as Ssstance in solving the many and diff fcult transportation problems"

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec 16.-"Aus- tralia will solve it's industrial prob lems by the adoption of a new social code. that every worthy citizen is en- titled to a minimum standard of com port bearing some relation to the to- tai wealth production of the commu- nity. but above that minimum full play will be given to individual enter prise, initiative and intelligence. This is the conclusion of the Hon. GeC~ge Beeby. member of the Austra- lian coalition government. and writer and lecturer on economic problems, who recently began here q four months inquiry into plans for recon structiOn in the United States.
 Australia, he said has no fear of revolutionary disorders. The danger ous element is a small minority. al though very active. The problem of maintaining comfortable standards of living without paternalism is being met, he said, with a great educational movement to seeking to create mu- tual lines of respect by which enter prise may be conducted.
 Mir. Beeby noted that the railroads and other great utilities have since the beginning been government owned in Australia, but predicted that the extension of government opera tion to ordinary industry as the result of the war would not remain perma nent.
 "The only state in Australia which is at present under labor govern ment recently attempted to reduce the cost of meat to consumers by starting government ranches and butcher shops" he said. For some time the supposed benefits of this scheme were lauded as q triumph o' state socialism, but when the propo- sition was analysed after two years operation il was perfectly clear that the reduction in price was negligible and that the enterprise was run on unsound business lines which might, particularly during a dry spell, in volve the whole state in a heavy loss.
 The idea of state control of food supplies is rapidly giving way to agi' tation of voluntary cooperation among primary producers. The producer now seeks to eliminate intermediate prof its and is trying to get nearer the consumer, looking to cooperation as against state assistance as his media.
 The same applies to manufactur' ing industry, MT. Beeby said:
 Efforts are being made" he con tinued. ito provide definite and per. manent lines of communication be tween the employer and the workman. | Schemes for the creation of indus trial councils, shop committees and boards of conciliation, mutual pro posals for better shop conditions and creating healthier social life are receiving unusual prominence.
 Out of it all believe Australia will develop on lines of individual ef' fort rather than that of state social ism, but this will be achieved by def nite cooperation between employers ] and their workmen
