the Director General of Railroads to
the chairman of the association. re-
Gently made public, in which Mr.. Hines
stated that the Railroad AdmiListra-
ton would be unable to make the nee
essary readjustments in freight rates
to enable the companies to be self-sus-
tanning with the return to private man
agement, and that the companies shouid
take steps to bring the matter before
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Mr.. Cuyler a. the conclusion Of the
meeting stated that the resumption OF
private operation or the railroads
would open several problems Of great
Importance not only to the railroads,
but to the country at large.
"The most serious problem for us
now" he said, "is that of adequate
national legislation to put the rail
roads on sound financial footing and
enable them to perform their full SER
vice to the country. AS has been re-
Gently pointed out by the Director Cen
eral, the government has not been able
during the period Of government con-
troll to make the full amount Of capital
expenditures needed to keep the rail
roads abreast Of the growth of the
country.
The government could not make
i&hese expenditures during the war be-
Cause the labor and materials Of the
Country were needed for the prosecu-
tion of the war. Since the armistice,
as Mr. Hines points out, the railroad
administration has been restricted by
Congress as to the amount Of funds it
could spend for additions and better
ments, and it has also been seriously
handicapped by the fact that great
increase in operating expenses, without
a compensating increase in rates, has
produced large operating deficit. 1t
is plain that very large expenditures
will be necessary for the upbuildng of
the properties, and sound Legislation is
vitality necessary to give a certain basis
upon which these funds can be raised
in the investment markets."

CAR EMPLOYEES SALARY is
RAISED.

Washington, ID. c., April 1S.-Owing
to the continued efforts of the Rail
. road Mems International Benevolent
Association the director general has
raised the wages of 10000 sleeping and
parlor car employees. This raise means
S25 above the basic minima, which
went into effect Jan. 1, 1918. The
wages of 10000 dining car employees
was advanced $50 in the same manner
This increase, though tardy in coming,
is no doubt welcomed by the thousands
of employees over the country.
Other applications for higher pay
will receive consideration in proper
tion to what they deserve. Director
General Hines has shown n disposition
to at least be fair with the employees
of the road. The International Rail
road Mems Organization, under the
leadership of r. L. Mays and DIR. Mid
ian Bousfield of Chicago, has rendered
the railroad men exceptional service
in obtaining for them their rights. At
torney William Houston of this city
represented the organization before
the railroad commission.
