Operating Expenses Were
Cut ,767, ,723, as Against
April, 1920

Net railway operating income Of
the Pennsylvania Railroad for April
was s3.774.469. against s2,OSe, ,496 in
March, an increase Of $1,741,97S, and
an increase Of $12,841,299 over April,
1920. when the road showed a deficit
of 16,615.76S.
For the first four months of 1921
the company shows net railway op-
Grating income of S2,522,23S, against
a deficit at the end of the first quar-
ter Of S1,252,231 and OF s30,261,253
in the first four months Of 1920.
Analysis of the monthly report Of
the road shows the management dur
ing the dullness in both freight and
passenger services made further
heavy cuts in operating expenses, the
total decrease for the month being
S7,767,723; that revenues from
freight carried totaled S26.039.165,
compared with $27,4OS,OSS in March,
1921, but an increase of S5,2S5,572
over April, 1920. due to the increased
freight rates granted last year.
Passenger revenue totaled S1O,79S,-
260, an increase OF $1,1ZS,53O over
April, 1890, and Of S4SS,s44 over
March.
Comparisons Of earnings for April
with those of March show it was only
through further retrenchment of OPP
Grating expenses the company was
able to show net earnings. Incl.
dentally these earnings were made in
the month when the peak was reach
ed in number of idle freight cars OF
/ the road.
The peak was reached in the mid.
die of the month, since which time
there has been a steady upturn II
the movement of freight. The state
ment for May is expected to show
even further Improvement in botl
operating revenues and income.

sor Pearse. "The father of today
pays too much attention to the
factory and the shop and not
enough to the home"
Too many fathers, the speaker
said, carelessly >remark at the club
that they leave that to the wife"
things to be taken care
of around the home.
This, he declared, is a cowardly
resort. It's as much a mans busi-
ness, in the opinion of Professor
Pearse, to stoke the furnace when
the janitor is off playing poker as
it is the wife's to put the kettle
on"
In fact, every husband should
be a janitor, as well, and a plum
ber and generally handy man
around the house, if he is a good
husband, according to Professor
Pearse.
