Asks Congress to Give Rail-
ways to Employees to Run on
Profit Sharing Basis.
WOULD COST 10 BILLIONS
Fourteen Unions Approve Plan
and Bill Is Ready to Be
Introduced.
SPECIAL Despatch 10 TIE srS.

WAsHiNGroN. Feb. 6.-Organized rail-
way labor will ask the Government to
buy all t,e railroads in the country.
valued at $4,000, 100000. and turn
them over to the employees to be op-
Grated by them on a cooperative profit
sharing plan. The scheme contemplates
that cash working capital OF about
$500. 100000 shall be supplied by the
Government.
This radical proposal has been put
in the form OF n bill 70 be presented TO
Congress and has been indorsed by the
chief executives of fourteen railroad la
bor unions representing 100000 men.
The plan was originally drawn by the
four brotherhoods, comprising the en-
gineers tiremen, conductors and brake
men, and was indorsed to-day by the
ten railway labor unions affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor.
The railroad payroll is now about
s2.6o0 10000 a year. When the Gov
ernmen, took control of the roads a
year ago the payroll was 100000, 600.
Tho Railroad Administration has In
creased the wages by se00.0oo.Oo0 Il
year, and further advances that are un-
der consideration. 1t Is expected. will
bring the total increase In tho payroll
to $1,000. 600.
The labor leaders point out that
while the interest and dividends paid
to the security owners are about $780,
600, 600 a year the wages paid to labor
are s2,So0, 100000. They assert there
fore that labor's interest in the railroad
financial budget Is three or four times
greater than that OF capital and that for
this reason labor has a greater right to
demand control OF the management than
has capital.

~ FER Cent. for Corporations.

For corporations the normal tax was
finally agreed upon at IL per cent for
1915. despite tho efforts of some OF the
House conference managers 10 place an
additional per cent on undstributed
income For 1919 and years thereafter
the corporation normal tax is fixed at
10 per cent. This was a concession by
the Senate conference managers. as the
Senate had fixed the rate at per cent
Corporation profits are to be taxed
under three brackets for 1918, The first
bracket provides a tax OF 80 per cent
on the net income in excess OF the excess
profits tax-s3.0o0 plus per cent. OF
the invested capital-and not in excess
OF 90 per cent. OF invested "apital For
1919 and succeeding years the bill cuts
this tax from 80 to 20 per cent

one Board 70 Run All Roads.

The unions propose that all the rail-
roads OF the country be operated as
one company under direction OF single
board az Washington. on which the pub
lie, the railroad official employees and
the unofficial employees shall have equal
representation. This board is to have
supreme control OF the operation OF the
100000 miles Of American railways.
The value OF American railways as
asserted by the companies is about
$4,000, 100000, II the Government
purchased this property with per
cent bonds there would be an annual
interest charge Of 5000, 100000. The
Government Is now paying the roads
an annual rental Of about 5000, O0o. 900
The railroads In 1918 under Government
operation produced a net Income of only
$6s6,o0o.oo0, or s2l5. .000, 900 less than
the Government rental.
Unofficial forecasts of the operatinp
results made by members of the Rail-
road Administration Indicate that In
1919 there will again be large deficit.
and that II the volume of traffic de-
clines as Is now Indicated the deficit
may reach s3oo.oo0.Ooo.
While the value OF the roads as shown
on the books of the railroads Is SIS
600, 100000, the spokesmen for the
brotherhoods say that a considera ble
part of this valuation has come from
increased land values and the invest
ment OF surplus earnings In the prop
critics.
The sun., 1919-02-07

They assert that the present owners
or the railroads ought not 10 receive
any income on property paid out OF
earnings or on the unearned increment
In land values. and they estimate that
the Government might be able through
the courts to purchase the $4,000 600
600 OF railroad securities for as little
as $4,000, 100000 The fixed charges
at o per cent would then be $500. 600 =
900 instead OF S90O.0O0,OOO.
Heads of the railroad labor oryani-
cations say they are not disturbed nv
the large losses shown by Government
operation. and that they will prunise
to produce net income of 81. OOO. 900
600 II they are allowed to run the roads
They point out that II the interest TO be
paid by the Government were $3.50 900
600 an income of $1,000, ,00O. 900 wouId
leave $250.000, 900: half OF II would go
to the national Treasury and the other
half would be divided pro rata among
all the other employees. This would he
equivalent to about per cent. of the
payroll. so that an employee earning
$1,000 in wages would receive sI5
profit sharing dividend: an executive
receiving a salary OF $4,000 n year
would receive profit sharing dividend
of $4,000,
