WILLARD AGAINST
U.S.. OWNERSHIP
Urges More Power for Rail.
roads Under Private
Control
SCORES FIVE-YEAR PLAN
b. and o. President Opposes
Division of Excess Profits
With Labor

Washington, Feb. 1S.--Daniel Willard,
president Of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. testified today before the
Senate Interstate Commerce Committee
that experience in the war showed that
railroads under private ownership and
subject always to governmental regula-
tion should he authorized to do what
ever would be done in the public inter-
est under government ownership and
operation. or is actually being done
under Federal control and operation.
Mr.. Willard contended that railroads
under private management had not
broken down during the war. and that
both private operation and Federal regu-
lation. which lie said had proved sue
cessful, should be continued
TT has been clearly shown. however,
he added, that a system of regulation
des gned for peace time conditions did
not function properly in time of war
and the government assumed control OF
the railroads and proceeded to run them
as II there were no restrictive laws or
regulations"
Mr.. Willard opposed government
ownership. extension of the present con-
troll until 1924 and the plan of CO.
operative operation advanced by the four
brotherhoods, He said he believed if
the five-year extension plan was carried
out. government ownership would be in
evitable.
Discussing proposals to insure larger
returns to labor Mr.. willard said he
did not favor division of excess profits
with labor II believe thoroughly in
good wages" he said, land If a man
does work pf Iiuusual va Shpuld
receive unusual reward, but the two
should go together"
lie referred to his own rise from an
unskilled laborer at the age Of eighteen
in discussing the opportunities which he
said were open TO railway employees.
