Uncertainty in Business.
Indorses Rail Owners Plan.

This plan, he said. provides for a
fixed percentage return to the roads
and that where a road makes a profit
in excess of 6 per cent the excess
shall be divided between the govern
ment, the employees and the railroad
In his opinion this plan protected all
interests-the public, the shippers,
employees and owners
''The time for experiments has
passed." said Mr.. Herrick. 1.-The gov
ernment has followed fads and fancies
far enough. Now let us forget par
tisan politics and devise prac-

agement of our great vehicles of COM

British Russian offensive in North

chak's Siberian army and establish
Archangel as a base through which
allied supplies might be handled to
all anti -bolshevik armies in the field.

armies have been driven backward

expedition. according to military
opinion in Archangel at this time,
ure equally as bad as that which met
last summers efforts unless large
forces are thrown in at once by the
allied governments and war against
the bolsheviki undertaken in earnest.
Fear for British Politics.
Throughout the long winter, when
the allies and Russians on the Arch

perior forces, the allied command was
waiting the arrival of summer to
take the ofiensive.
Fearing that political conditions in
England would be greatly disturbed

The offensive began late in June,
but so far has advanced only q few

Former Coz. Herrick Declares
u S. Control of Roads UnWiSe
Erstsokie Ambassador Says Shift From Private Osuner-
ship Would Be Step To,oard Autocracy,
Imperiling Peoples Liberties.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, August 21.-
Myron T. Herrick of this city, MEM
ber Of the executive committee of the
National Association of Owners of
Railroad Securities, declares in
statement that 1.-The turning over of
the vast system of railroad lines to
the control Of the government. and
through the government to the control
Of organized labor, would be a long
step toward the establishment in this
country of an autocratic power that
would imperil the liberties OF the
American people,"
Mr.. Herrick, who was formerly Gov
ernor of Ohio and American ambassa-
! dor to France, is a banker and
director of the Erie railroad and of
pany.
Points to Federal Experience.
ment that "the experience of the last
two years with the railroads, as with
the telegraph and telephone lines, is
ample proof that there is neither eff
cheney nor economy in government
control. He said that such control
and operation would defeat the pur-
pose for which the railroad brother
hoods were established and that it
would involve a huge addition to the
public debt, as the value of the rail-
roads was estimated at $4,000, ,00O.-
0O0
Referring to the agitation by rail-
road employees through the officers of
their organizations in favor of gov
ernment ownership of the roads. Mr..
Herrick said:
People Must Meet Deficit.
This propaganda will not be IA
vorably received by the people OF this
country, who. as always. must pay
the bill. The deficit incurred in less
than two years of federal operation
is already more than $500.000.00o. and
is mounting at the rate of 100000
a day, in spite of sharp increases in
freight and passenger rates. Directly

or indirectly in taxes. freight charges
and increase in the cost of goods the
burden of that deficit falls on the
people and contributes in tremendous
measure to the oppressively high cost
of living.
I'm the face of that showing, who
could (conscientiously wish to perpet-
uate governmental control of the rail-
roads?
Questions Labor Brotherhoods.
II cannot believe the brotherhoods
have thoroughly considered the con-
sequences that would follow govern
ment ownership or that they have pre-
pared to exercise this great power.
at variance with the character of
their organizations and with their
long and honorable history
To add the cost of the railroads to
the governments debt. Mr.. Herrick
said. would weaken the government
borrowing power. depreciate further
government securities and increase
borrow. He pointed out that the war
had added $40, ,00O. 100000 to the public
debt in two years and that the an
nual interest charge alone is now al
most equal to the whole annual ex-
pense of the national government be-
Uncertainty in Business.
ITO buy the railroads and double
the national debt would be exceed
ingly unwise." said Mr.. Herrick. "It
would simply multiply the principal
and interest which the people must
pay.
Uncertainty in business will not
cease until the railroad problem is
solved" asserted Mr.. Herrick. Every
delay means tremendous loss to the
country. All the billions of wealth
owned by the people of the United
States are to go forward or back
ward. dependent upon the legisla-
tion which is just ahead. A mistake
will threaten the whole financial
structure"
Mr. Herrick said that he believed
the best plan yet presented for solv-
ing the railroad question was that
presented to Congress by the Ma
tional Association of Owners of Rail-
road Securities.
