REDUCTION IN COST OF
RUNNING RAILROADS

New York Feb. 2-Unification of
operation of governmental controlled
railroads in the eastern region resulted
in an estimated saving of $2324S 600
during 1918 as compared with the an
nuaI cost OF running these roads un-
der private ownership according to a
report which a. II. Smith, regional di-
rector, prepared for the director gen.
eral of railroads and made public here
tonight.
Nh;lethe transportation situation in
fthe east generally Is normal at present
Nh Smith declared in his review, Il
canvass Of the business situation late
in 1918. indicated that there may be
some decreases in traffic. due to the
discontinuauce OF The war demands
and buyers waiting for lower prices
The estimated saving was divided as
follows: $i.12.000 through unification
Of terminals and stations; $3.50, 600
through elimination of passenger ser
vic: $3,617,000 through reductions in
/ organization, and $3.209000 throuE h
other miscellaneous economies.
In aIluGing u the reductions in pas
senger service. the report surveyed the
troop movement, the bulk of which
was through ports served by the east
! ern roads. These roads handled 1857
troops trains, which steamed 1000 900
train miles and carried 3 3.30S496 offic-
