Editor Railway Age Tells Pitts.
burgh Rotary Club Country
Faces the Worst Financial
Panics in It's History. a

Pittsburgh, Pa. Jan. 14.--Immediate
large increases In the freight carrying
capacity Of American railroads II the
only hope Of avoiding one OF the worst
financial panics In history. Samuel O.
Dunn. editor Of the Railway Age, told
the Rotary club here today.
THE people and congress of the
United States are living in q FOOLS par
adise 80 far as the railroad situation
Is concerned" Dunn said. "The list
ing OF stocks upon the stock exchanges
and other evidence shows We are en-
gaged in investing billions OF dollars
annually and even monthly in other
industries while only q trifling amount
il being invested in railway facilities.
Even now the railways are unable
to handle all the commodities that the
industries Of the country can produce.
The freight traffic actually carried has
increased 45 per cent In four and one
half years, while the number Of freight
cars in which to carry 1t has increased
only 2 per cent and other railway ia
cilitics in proportion"
Dunn called attention to the fact
that lumber mills In the northwest arc
closed down, because the railroads can
not furnish care to haul the lumber,
that Governor Allen Of Kansas recent
1y stated IS per cent of the Kansas
wheat crop was still In the hands OF
the farmers because the railroads
would not handle II and stated that
coal operators are constantly com.
planning that they can not get enough
coal cars.
Dunn said at least two billion dollars
. year should b. invested In railroads
for the next three years.
