w. III. Bremner, president. said that
while the roads tonnage had been
greatly depressed by the business recess
sion in 1921. and prospects now are far
from normal, yet the management was
going forward into 1922 with the ex-
pectation of favorable results. Mr..
Bremner deplored Federal laws under
which the Interstate Commerce Conn
mission rigidly controls the income of
the carriers and the Railroad Labor
Board more than so per cent. of their
expenditures, and expressed the opinion
that unless the pendulum of Govern
mental regulations swings backward the
railroads will drift into Government
ownership. He said that a good begin
ming in this direction would be the
restoration to the railroads OF the power
to initiate freight and passenger rates
and fix wage scales subject to review by
the l. G. G. and the Labor Board.
