agricultural and labor units for rea-
sons Of political expediency. will sound
a call TO arms for a lineup against the
railroads.
The first move in this direction
probably will be to repeal section 15-A
and other features of the Esch- Cum
minis law put through by Republican
Congress and signed by President
Wilson nearly three years ago. That
section provides a per cent. guar
anty to the railways against net loss.
This feature of the Esch- Cummins
law was made the target of all the
radical candidates in the middle West
in the last Congressional campaign
coupled with the agricultural demand
for heavy cut in freight rates which
were held to be chiefly responsible for
depression in every rural section
Candidates for the United States
Senate like Mr.. Brookhart Gowa), Mr.
Shipstead. tMinn.), Mr. Howell (Neb. }
and Mr.. Frazier On. ID based their
campaigns almost entirely on the re-
sentiment displayed by the farmers
against the Esch-Cummins law and
particularly section 15-A. Candidates
of the two parties committed to poll
cies generated by radical influences of
local origin We'd with each other in
aggravating this resentment.

induced to accept as Correct glaringly
false statements on their actual con-

statements that the railroads could not
stand a further reduction in freight

the way of decrease in labor wage

RADICALS ARE FOR WAR ON
THE RAILROADS AND BANKS

In their alleged rapacity. Since the
elections exponents of radicalism in
Congress have used the same mac
curacies as to facts and illogical argu-
nents to recruit support among Sena-
tors and Representatives who are
ready to fall in line with any politi-
cal venture that points to individual
advantage.
Disturbed by Plans.
Government officials do not conceal
their apprehension over the plans Of
the radical groups. One of the most
important officials Of the Government
said to-day he believed "the next year
will be the most critical for the rail-
roads in the history~of the country"
He supplemented this statement with
the declaration that the heads OF some
of the most important transportation
lines shared this apprehension. The
chief hope OF the Government and
railroad executives for defeating the
destructive aggressions of the railroad
groups in Congress was that there will
come a marked improvement in busi-
ness conditions and particularly that
farmer depends.
That some change in the present
policies of the Government. in dealing
with the railroads is impending Is -ad-
mitted by officials. A reasonable solu-
tion of it may be found in the sug-
gestion contained in President Har-
ding's message that mergers of inde-
pendent systems within clearly defined
zones should be legalized to minimize
the percentage of loss and, through
mutual cooperation, bring about i'm
provements in transportation condi-
tions which are pronounced by COM
petent authorities to be almost as de-
plorable as those that confront the
farmer.
An estimate made by the Interstate
Commerce Commission clearly reveals
the extent of the adverse conditions
which the railroads are facing, despite
the per cent. guarantee against loss
In net returns contained in the Esch-
Cummins act. The estimate OF the
probable revenues, operating ex-
penses and income is as follows:
Operating revenue. s., 600, 900, 900
Operating expenses. ....... 4,100,000 900
Net railroad operating incoinc. soU,VVO,Ovo
On these figures the net income viii
approximate less than 4 per cent, the
most definite estimate fixing 1t at 3.9
per cent. as the average covering every
unit in the transportation system of
the country. Some of the most i'm
portant systems will have to take adj
vantage CT the Government guarantee
to make up the deficit between income
and expenses.
