LABOR UNSCATHED

While leaders OF labor Organizations.

ington outlining plans TO defeat the
COMPROMISE rail bill. Albert y. Cum
MINIS chairman OF the interstate COM
merce committee. was pointing out 10
the senate the provisions OF the meas
ure touching that subject. Labor IN
protesting the bill is either the victim
~ misunderstanding or hysteria. as It
does not 10 the slightest degree deprive
them OF any right that they now
possess. That means that labor is in
exactly the same position whether the
big measure passes or not. and Why
such pronounced opposition should
arise from a group that Is not affected
IS somewhat OF mystery. The anti
strike clause has been removed and to
quote the words Of Senator Cummins
Il am utterly unable TO understand the
opposition which the labor provisions
have aroused among labor leaders. for
they leave all free men, whether EN-
ployes or employer. to do whatsoever
they please al any time. a. any place or
under any circumstances. Certainly
bill that extends such wide latitude can
not be classed as restrictive. AS II mat

The national capital investment in
factory buildings. machinery, railroad
cars terminals and roadbeds exceeded
$40. 900. 900 even before tho war. and the
interest and upkcep OF that heavy in
Yestment now costs us more than Va
600 900 600 4 year.
Our bill for overhead is as great as
the combined value OF iron. steel and
lumber products. Quite worth conscrv-
ing II would seem. Yet rmused factory
space, Idle machinery and empty freight
cars are seen on every hand.
Overhead is evaporating and running
to waste throughout the nation every
hour and the aggregate leakage a
mounts 70 millions OF dollars every day.
For unlike the conservation of lumber
and mineral wealth we can conserve
overhead only by using II. Strange as
It may sound, overhead IS lost when It
is boarded and conserved when it is eI-
plotted to the full
The railroads affoLd striking ex-
ample OF wasted overhead. Sixty per
cent OF the total cost OF operating a
railroad Is overhead. expense and this
large, percentage Of the cost goes on
and ties decay oven when no trains
pass over them. The depots and ter
minals suffer as much from the rarages
bolted as when they shelter travellers.
Taxes and interest commence to run
from the moment the railroad Is built
and they accrue on scheduled time
whether the trainS arrive late or early.
THIS is why It took $1,000, 600, 900 OF
the $2.25o,o06.O0o spent in operating
trains and cars In 1916 to maintain tho
roadbed and equipment and TO take care
OF depots TERMINALS and rolling stock,
and we must add another $1,000, 900. 900
for interest at percent upon the in
vestmcnt Of $50, 900 900. 900.
Thus we have S2.000,000,000 for the
railway overhead. Two billion dollars
that falls due every year. regardless OF
whether business is slack or prosper
Gus and regardless of whether the gov
eminent. private owners or the railway
brotherhoods operate the trains.
How can we conserve it? BY increas'
ing the volume Of traffic. For instance
in 1916 the railroads carried ESQ, 900
900 tons Of freight at a cost II about
$3.50. 900, 900 per $l.H a ton.
Now suppose that in 1920 the volume
of each class Of freight be exactly dou:.
bled and that 4.5uo.000,000 tons Of
freight be carried the same distance.
Would the total cost Of operating the
railroads be increased in proportion TO
the increased traffic?
Not at ALL. The reason Is that the in
