THE FIFo- = HALLWAY
INDUSTRY
(By U. S. P7ess)

Washington, Oct. lt.-Assistant
Secretary Of Commerce, Z. NJ. Feiker,
tric Railway Association, observed
that the only thing which kept tho
electric railway industry going, dur
ing some of the past years 'shas been
the very necessity Of your service In
order that the rest of the community
could progress and function Industrial
iy and socially" Mr.. Feiker said of
the electric railway situation: @tThe
.,eogaition Of yonss industry is indeed
critical IN many isspects. The whole
condition has arisen, at least in part,
1T seems to me, from lack Of appre-
citation both on the part Of the gene
raj public and your own part, of the
basic interdependence Of your indus
try and the rest of the industries of
the country and the different commun-
tiles. Some of the data which bear
upon this are astonishing and conclu-
sive of the point. You represent a
fixed investment said to be about
$4,000, 100000, upon which great
deal Of industrial and other business
credit is based. You employ some
100000 men in normal times. You
burn annually over 100000 tons Of
coal. You have a gross income, esti-
mattel Tor 1920. OF some 1855 900 900
! of which approximately per cent.
or nearly $50 1000, 900 is repaid to the
communities i'll taxes, not to mention
the paving maintenance which most
=: OF you carry. You pay out over
$500, 100000 in wages, which is used
principally for purchasing commodi-
ties and the products of other indus
tries. You buy directly supply mate
rial when costs another 100000 900.
You buy in normal times, another
5000, ,OOo,O 900 worth for extensions, re-
placements, etc. You transport, each
wear, ach year, from 10000, 100000 to
14,oo0,ocQOoo passengers-twelve
times as many as the steam railroads.
Tie very marshalling Of this data in
dicates the close relation your indus

This great cause involves great
questions of state authority and power.
