Discussing the labor provisions of
the Cummins bill, Mr.. Rea said:
Note that they primarily concern
not only the management and invest
Ors but the welfare of 1000, 900 EN-
ployes and affect the payment of So,
800 .000. 900 in wages.
ANY suggestion as to standard
wages that takes no account of the
between New York, Florida. Califor-
mia, Kansas and Maine is contrary to
economic experience, No equitable
plan for the avoidance of future dis
putes as to wages will be complete or
protective against strikes, unless
sliding scale is adopted, whereby
wages will be adjusted to living costs.
Settlement of wages under pressure or
as compromise is bound to produce
dissatisfaction.
Favors Consolidation
Mr.. Rpa declared himself in favor of
consolidation and revising the provisions
of the Cummins bill, dividing the rail
roads into not less than twenty nor
more than thirty one separate and dis

the existing systems have been formed
under a competitive system and follow
the lines of the natural traffic routes,
and the necessity for absorption. merger
and consolidation of smaller corpora
tions is apparent.
He quoted figures from the Interstate
Commerce Commissions report of 1916,
which he called the test PERIOD" and
expressed the belief that until earnings
are increased wholesale consultations,
as porvided by the Cummins measure,
would prove Improbable.
THE railroads want laws that will per-
nit the existing railway systems to alb
sorb and eliminate the affiliated com
panies now owned, operated, leased or
affiliated with their systems. Such fur :
ther connecting roads may be added as
may be required to round out these
systems on a basis that would be ap-
proved by the federal commissions.
Mr.. Rea here described at length the
Pennsylvania system, including about
140 live companies, consisting of rail
road companies, ferry companies. bridge

Objectionable Features

Objectionable features Of the bill as
enumerated by Mr.. Rea included lack
of authority in the Interstate Commerce
Commission over state rates labor pro-
visions too diffuse to be effective; pur-
poses for which voluntary consolidG-
tons can be made are too restrictive in
scope: Communicating of so called ex-
cess earnings of individual companies
and pcnalizing the same if used to pro
vide better railroad facilities-descrbed
by the speaker as "a decided blow to
operating initiative and conservative
financing; ; while railroad valuation in
its present form, he contended. cannot
be used for the various purposes pro
posed, nor completed to enable the com
mission or the carriers promptly to car
ry out the various provisions of this
proposed law
Confusion of authority for acquiring
property and authorizing additions ana
bettrrments was also declared objection
able by Mr.. Rea.
Of the Cummins bills provision that
the right of eminent domain cannot
be exercised without certificate of
tho transportation board and the In =
terstate Commerce Commission Mr..
Rca said he regarded it as detrimental
TO business because industries, he held,
cannot defer the establishment or ox-
tension of their plants on such a di
vided and dilatory process to determine
new branches, sidings or station i'm =

I railroad problem here and abroad, and
with the results of past experience of
the national and state governments with
public works and railroads before us,
said Mr.. Rea, I'VE felt that government
ownership or a government guarantee
was not desirable for the railroads of
the country.
I'm its last analysis government
guarantee means government operation,
as, If the government is to supply the
funds, it must have n controlling force
| in expenditures for railroad operations.
The situation today is practically that
of government guarantee.
Further, the danger of maximum
earnings may be illustrated by the ex-
perience of many of the street railways
of the country aud their franchises.
where the five cent maximum fare was
regarded as providing sufficient mar
gin of profit to meet all conditions, but.
when confronted with world wide war
