An exchange calls attention to the
fact that the officials to whom the
railroads were returned are practical
ly the came officials who were in
charge during government operation.
This is probably true. but while un-
der government operation they were
acting under instructions from mex
perienced government directors. while
now they are using their own judg.
ment. and are working under COM

difference in the kind of service that

| Following the specific requirements
| of the new law, the interstate COM
merce commission divided the United
States into four regions for rate MAX
| ing purposes: Cd the eastern states;
| CD the southern states; CD the CEN
| trail part of the country, east of the
| Rocky mountains. and ca the terri
| tory west of the Rockies. This done.
| the commission made valuation of
| all the railroads by regions, and then
established freight and passenger RAJ s
which, in its judgment, would give an
aggregate return of 6 per cent on the
total value of the railroad property in
each region. But no individual road
| is guaranteed 6 per cent, nor any other
rate of return.
The law fixed 5 X per cent as the
minimum earnings on which the COM
| bined railroads of a district can safely
operate. and gave the commission the
discretion of raising the minimum rate
of return to per cent. which was
, done in the case recently decided.
Competition-one purpose of the
LAWS maintained in every region.
; and the railroads will fight for bust
ness as they did before the war. If
any road fails to secure sufficient bust
ness to make 6 per cent on its valua-
ton, it is out of luck and must look
to some source other than the govern
ment for direct relief; the law does
not give it. If any road makes more
than per cent, it must split the eX-
cess earnings with the government for
the creation of n fund from which
weak roads may borrow in emergen-
cies. If all the roads combined in a
region earn 6 per cent, the law will
be satisfied, even if some individual
roads makes nothing at all If the
earnings on the combined railroad
property of the district are under
per cent, it becomes the duty of the
commission to readjuSt the rates.
The Santa Fe system lies in the CEN
trail and western regions, and lis prop
erty, therefore, is valued in two
regions for rate making purposes.
Some of the Santa FEES neighbors
made money prior to federal control.
