ATTACKS CUMMINS BILL.
FOR RAILROAD REFORM
Samuel Rea Tells Bankers Some
Features Are Like
Fifth Wheel"

ST. LOUIS, No.. October appeal
ing for the return Of railroads to pri-
vate ownership. Samuel Rea, presi-
dent of the Pennsylvania railroad,
addressing the convention of the
American Bankers Association, yes
terday, attacked the cummins bill,
pending in the United States Senate
as detrimental" to the progress of
the railroads. and compared some fea-
lures Of it to the fifth wheel Of a
wagon"
Analyzing the bill. Mr.. Rea asserted
that the bill contains some good fea-
lures in that it provides for the re-
81 ip, for rates sufficient to sustain. the
roads. and the pooling of earnings
and traffic, but added that it dis
couraged operating initiative and in
centive.
{ saThe ,reprehensble feature of the
BILL" declared Mr. Rea, ''is that what
a company earns under fair and uni
form rates through good manage
ment and efficient transportation can
be taken tha from It and given to
tanning to the communicating Of So
companies"
He denounced the labor provisions
fective."
The speaker predicted that the
measure in its present form would
cause confusion in authorizing ad-
ditions and betterments to the roads,
and added:
1.-THE Cummins bill gives US no
prompt or definite assurance of ade-
quate rates. If the railroads had had
adequate rates during the last decade
there would have been no railroad
problems confronting the country.
Railroad earnings and credit must
be created SUFFICIENT to support the
existing railroad investment and at
portation business requires in the
public interest New capital cannot
be Communicated"
