SHOW Big DEFICIT
War Departments Enterprise
Has Same Experience as
the Shipping Boards.
U. s. RECEIVED CUT RATE
Even il Full Price Was Col
lected Business Would Not
Have Paid.
U. s. RECEIVED CUT RATE

The annual report of the Panama
Railroad Company for the last fiscal
year shows that the War Departments
efforts at commercial steamship opera
tion have not been more financially
successful than those of the Shipping
Board. Despite the layig up Of sew
eral ships and other measures OF
economy. gross expenses exceeded gross
revenue by $5S7.332.
Protests have been made from time
TO time to the War Department by pri-
vate steamship lines against the con-
finuation of the Panama Line services,
which were described as unwarranted
and subsidized competition. The pri-
vate owners are now able to point to
a second consecutive improbable year
FOR the Panama service. The deficit
from steamship operations in 1921 was
S70O.S10.
The item gross expenses In the income
account OF the line does not include the
charges OF interest on the steamship
Investment, insurance and depreciation
necessarily included by private organi-
zations. The deficit would be much
greater IL normal commercial practice
were followed In these respects. The
Panama company follows Government
accounting practice.
The Panama Railroad Steamship Line
has a virtual monopoly OF Government
business In passengers and freight be-
tween the United States and the Canal
Zone. All traffic for Government ac-
count was carried at material reduce
tions from regular rates. Had the line
received the regular rates for all its
business the deficit would have been
reduced to approximately s125.000.
During the year ended June so. 1922,
total revenue of the steamship line from
all sources was $2.S62.89s. a decrease Of
s2.293.548 from 1921. Total expenses
were s3.45o.c31. a decrease of s2.407,-
026 from 1891. and the years deficit.
therefore. was $5S7.332.
The number of sailings outward from
New York was reduced during the year
20 fifty-five, with a total of 117023 tops
Of freight carried. as against sixty-hve
departures. with q total Of 1881 tons,
during the previous year. Similar re-
auctions in north bound sailings and
! traffic were recorded.
April rs OF this year the passenger
steamer Gen. II. II. Hodges was retired
and laid up in Gatun Lake; the collier
Ulysses and barges Mamei and Darien
were laid up. and the passenger steamer
Alliance was chartered to the Old Do
ninion Transportation Company. Other
ships were laid UP intermittently, and
the feeder service from Cristobal to East
