SWEEPING changes in the manage
ment of the railroads have been an
nounced during the past week by Di-
rector-General McAdoo. Practically
all of the high-priced railroad presi-
dents, some of whom have been getting
salaries up to $4,000 a year, have been
removed from their positions, and their
places will be filled by federal directors
who will be responsible to the govern
ment alone. None of them will receive
more than $4,000 a year, and few as
much as that. Among those who have
been deposed are Samuel Rea, presi-
dent of the great Pennsylvania system,
and Daniel willard, president of the
Baltimore & Ohio. 1t is expected that
neither of these will even be made
directors, as it is believed that they
have not been in sympathy with the
policy Of government ownership. N.
D. Maher, Of the Norfolk & Western
Railway, one of the really able railroad
managers, has been made a regional
director, and will have charge Of some
of the most important lines from the
coal fields TO the eastern ports, and A.
c. Needles, also of the Norfolk &
Western, has been made one OF the
federal directors. 1t is recognized that
the N. & W. men are not only among the
most efficient in railroad management,
but they have been cheerfully and faith
fully loyal to the government ever
since the railroads were taken over.
There will be general increase in
freight and passenger rates in order to
meet the added expenses Of the roads
occaSioned by the advance in wages
and other causes.
