Mr.. McAdoo returned to the attack
on his critics among railroad execu-
tives, dealig nchiefly with two
charges, the first concerning under
maintenance, while the second was
warm defense of his own labor and
wage policies. Railroads went back
to private ownership, he said, with
"more locomotives and more cars"
than they had given the govern
ment. AS to the charges of neglect
ed repairs, he said that the total cost
of fitting freight cars for service
after the government concluded was
no tmore than $9,508,00O, and turn
ing to reported conditions today, he
said it would cost railroads $780,
900 to repair the cars that are too
damaged for service now.
AS to wage increases under his
administration, Mr.. McAdoo asserted
they amounted to $S66,802,000 per
year, while increases granted to the
employees in 1920, under private OPP
Grafton, amounted to $1,O91 100000.
Railroad Men Poorly Paid.
"The fact is, railroad employees
worked for less pay during the war
than any other class of industrial
workers doing similar work." he de-
clared. "The realization they were
working for their government in the
stres sand strain, of war, and that
they would be fairly treated inspired
them and spurred them to unusual
effort and faithful service"
Taking over the roads, the admin
istration found frequent and costly
labor turnover, discomfort, and de-
moralization," with pay rates
far lower than either the cost of liv- |
ing or the scales in private industry
justified, he added. He recounted !
The setting up of wage boards, with
representatives, and |
the granting of increases.
There was not the slightest COM
plant from any railroad executive
tina twage increases in 1918 were too
high" he said. g. . The charge that
the wages of railroad labor were un-
raised and that wages
were thereby elevated throughout
The country is false. The exact con-
;rary is true.
"The schedules of wages promul-
gated by the railroad administration
Turing 1918 were generally below
hose in other basic industries, and
we'll below the rates fixed by the
navy yards, the national war labor
BOARD, and by the ship building adj
ustment boards.

,ries necessarily caused the advances

I "a am ais convinced that the pres
1 It level of freight and passenger
Ates would have been unnecessary
ecause there is no question in my
mind that well directed and unified
operation of the railroads would enor-
mously reduce the cost of operation,
and greatly increase efficiency"
"While the time has gone BY" he
lsaid, to urge retention of the rail
roads by the government, in the first
lyear of government operations the
total savings made by the railroad
administration in unified operation"
