II do not expect to SEQ railroad

or than In any other country. Private
ownership can we'll afford to stand
or fall on that basis.
During the years Immediately
preceding federal control there we're
many who seriously doubted II pri-
vate ownership and operations OF the
railroads would continue as an econ
omic policy In this country under
tho laws and conditions as they then
existed. ! shared that opinion Mt that
time.
II feel now, however. that con-
grcss by virtue OF the transportation
act OF 1870. has not only made priv
ate ownership and operation OF the
railroads possible az an economic pol
icy. but IL has also provided so that
there can be tho fullest measure OF
unified direction and control when
ever and wherever necessary in the
interest OF tho public.
Stability Provided.
Further. II has provided by def
mite enactment 80 that there need b
no fear In the future OF interrupt" q"
OF service because OF disputes be-
tween the railroads and their en-
ployes concerning wages or working
conditions. Congress by It's actions
has made private ownership possible
but whether private ownership will
actually endure or not, having been
made possible. will depend upon
whether the people as q whole con-
tinue to want it-and this In turn
will depend upon whether they are
satisfied with the service which they
receive from the railroads under the
existing policy.
"In short. as view the matter
whether private ownership continues
TO be the economic policy OF thi,
country depends very largely upor
the railroad managers themselves. Il
they are men Of vision and II the,

public servants as well as trustees o.

policy OF private ownership Of prop

of wheat in August should react favor
ably on agricultural and business con.

tary Hoover declared. According to
his reports wheat exports the last
month amounted to 33,595,000 bushels,
or about four times the volume of any
pre-war figures for the month of Au,

Increase in the movement of wheat,
he said, should particularly ease the
