Millions for Improvements

The announcement of the Pennsylvania rail-
road that it will spend Immediately $8,OOO,OOO
on improvements in the Pittsburgh district, as
forerunner of a program that will cost
$10O.O0O,00O coupled with the $29,O00,OOO which
the Union Pacific will spend this year, shows not
only the necessity of rehabilitating the proper
ties but also the confidence which these great
corporations have in the immediate future.
The influence which the improvement policy
Of the various roads will have on the general
financial condition of the country cannot be over
estimated. Jumping the proposed improve
ments of the various lines, it is estimated that
severalAbilons will be expended in the next few
years This money will go to steel concerns,
makers of railway supplies equipment compan-
ies and to the thousands of workers whose skill
and industry are required in the execution of a
gigantic undertaking.
Indications of revival in business are to be
noted not only in railroad circles, but also in the
gradual lessening of unemployment and a better
condition of finances in all parts of the country,
as evidenced by the statements of the federal
reserve banks.
