ROADS STAGE !
A COMEBACK
Rapid Strides Being Made
To Relieve Congestion Of
Merchandise. .i.s.i

1t may perhaps be exaggerating
to say that the railroad situation Is
at the bottom OF all the credit
trouble, but at least the tie-up OF
goods all over the country. to the
extent Of many millions of dollars
in value, has very potent effect
upon the supply of cash and credit
Relief in the credit situation may
come FROM two sources; first, the
crowdings sout of non-essentiaI loans,
and, second. the release of the mer-
chandise congested on railroads.
But the second is the most i'm
portant, for 1t must be remembered
that upon transportation depends
delivery for cash of large part OF
these non-essential or speculative
holdings in loans. So that the rail-
roads loom up as the most impor-
tant factor in aiding liquidation Of
the credit impasse.
II is interesting to note that con-
gestion on the railroads has not de-
creased the amount of tonnage han
died, as compared with last year.
For instance, in January, February
and March of this year. when the
mage handled was 24.7 per cent
greater than in the first three
months of 1919, and for the month
OF March this tonnage was 90 per
cent greater. The roads are even
ahead of the year 1917 in tonnage
for these months.
When the strikes began in Aprfl,
the situation became even more
tangled. Tonnage figures are not out
yet for April, but gross earnings
of the roads, even for that month,
were a little ahead of those for
April, 1919. 1t is encouraging for
private ownership that these evi-
dcnces of progress in managing
the complicated railroad situa ton,
exist Railroad managers haye
never had such a problem as con-
fronts them now and has confronted
them since the government turned
operation over to them.
The equipment of the roads was
in sorry condition, and shortage of
cars and locomotives existed every
where: there were miles and miles
of broken down carriers. The rail-
road management has faced the task
of repair with great energy. and
today, nOtceably on the Pennsyl-
vania. the great trainloads of freight
going out. with cars in renewed
good condition, is encouraging.
