directorate Of the railroads. To capt
tai. which is the fruit Of yesterdays
labor, we now propose to discharge
every Just obligation. We demand mat
tho owners Of capital, who represent
only financial interest as distinguished
from operating brains and energy, be
retired from management, receiving
Government bonds with a fixed inter
est return for every honest dollar that
they have invested IN the railway in
dustry. We ask that the railroads OF
the United states be vested in the pub
lie: that those actually engaged IN
conducting that industry. not from
Wall street, but from The railroad OF
fees and yards and out on The railroad
lines, shall take charge Of this service
for the public.
Operating Heads 10 Share.
These represent all the brains, skill
and energy that is in the business.
Thy are entitled 10 that measure OF
control which is equal to their abipiy
and their responsibility for operating
the transportation properties. Then,
and then only, will the service be pr
marily for the public, not primarily
for profits 10 spectators and inflators
OF capital As a means OF accomplish
ing this end. we ask that a lease be
granted 10 a corporation created not
for profit, hut for public service we
ask that this corporation be controlled
in its management by an equal repre-
senlation Of the three fundamental m
Neresis upon which industry is based.
Tho public. operating managers and
wage earners viii then guarantee both
the. integrity OF the investment requlr-
ed for the conduct Of the industry and
that return which induces IT,, by in
vesting. 20 enter the public service.
THE public as consumers and the
operating as managers and wage earn
ers as producers. having Joined IN mat
guarantee, will then share equally N
all earnings in excess OF the amounts
required to meet the guarantee.
~Thts is provided by granting TO the
wage carners and management one
half OF the savings, which they,through
their perfected organizations can make,
and by securing ia the public the other
half 10 be enjoyed by the consumers,
enther by increasing the means for
service without increasing fixed
charges or by reducing The cost Of the
service which the machinery then in
existence can render. Thus the cost
OF transportation is automatically re-
duced exactly in proportion as benefits
accrue TO the producess Of transporta-
ton. Increase in earning power Of
producers under this system cannot be
balanced by decreased costs.
The railroads are the key industry
Of The nation. They affect at once the
price OF every necessity. As increased
transportation costs are reflected in the
increased price or all commodities. so
a reduction in those costs must be
reflected by reduced prices.
we say this because Of lsbor's in
terest as consumer, as part Of an over
burdened public. This fundamental
statement Of principle we respectfully
submit 10 the American people"
Chairman Cummins. OF the senate
Interstate Commerce Committee called
a committee meeting for tomorrow 20
discuss railroad problems and deter
mine whether hearing shall be re-
opened.

She was TO pay s2i.500 for the land

Of it was 70 mature the whole sum
1t is alleged that Mrs. Parkison did
not make her first interest payment last
