u. S. LOST $192, 100000
ON RAILROAD OPERATION
FIRST QUARTER OF YEAR
Total Deficit Since Roads Were Taken Over Is
$418,0O0,OOO; Government Also Runs $14,-
100000 Behind on Express Business

Washington. May 6.-Director General
Hines in a discussion Of recent railroad
earnings tonight disclosed that:
The governments deficit in operating
the railroads for the first three months
this year--or the difference between net
earnings and one-fourth of the guaran-
teed annual compensation-was about
s192, 100000 for all roads under federal
management.
The government loss for 1918 was
S226, 100000
The government loss incurred in 1J
months of federal operation was S41S,-
0o0000
Marked reduction Of freight traffic
under records during similar periods Of
the last two years were responsible for
the bad financial showing and conditions
II April, tho not vet reported fully, show
no promise of improvement
No Rate Increase Planned.
Despite the deficits. the director gen
eEal does not contemplate any general
increase in the level of rates, but prefers
TO wait restoration Of normal business
conditions
The government also incurred a de-
flcit of about S14.54O,O0O in eight
months operation of the American Rail
way Express company and Consolidated
1919.
The present unfavorable results
naturally lead TO agitation of the aues-
ton whether there ought to be an in
crease of rates. said Mr.. Hines. ssMv
own judgment Is that the present eondi-
hens are too abnormal to serve as a
basis for any change in the level of rates
