NOVEMBER Loss
Months Net Lowest in Thirty
Years, Causing Deficit

GROSS is NEAR
THE HIGH RECORD

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Net earnings
OF the railroads OF the United States
for the month OF November were the
lowest In thirty years, according to
preliminary figures on revenues and
expenses OF the larger systems. made
public last night.
As a result in the drop in November
tarnings due almost entirely to the
coal strike and its effect upon trans
pOrtatiOn, the Government Is facing a
deficit for the months operation OF
the roads of approximately S6i 10000.
December also is expected to show a
net loss to the Government. indicating
total loss to the Government for two
years OF railroad operation OF some
thing like 500 OOOOOo.
The tendency toward lower earrings
by the Eastern roads and correspond
ing higher returns in the South and
West will be acceniuated by the No
yember returns when official figures
are announced in a few days. The
Eastern roads for the first time in
their history so far as available rec
ords how, had an actual operating de-
flcit fo- the month. Their operating
expenses and taxes will aggregate
something like sh0O0,0O0 more than the
total operating revenues. The Western
roads, on the O'her hand will have
net earnings Of approximately $4,000
90 and the Southern roads nearly
S3,OOO0OO.
The figures so far available indicate
gross revenues for all OF the class
railroads Of approximately si36 OO0O0O
or only ! ner cent less than the huge
record made year ago. Abnormal
expenses, however. will leave net
operatlng revenue for au of NE roads
