CANADIAN PACIFIC,S
NET. EARNINGS LARGER
Expenses Cut Heavily and I'm
proponents Postponed.

The Canadian Pacific Railway Com
pany has issued its pamphlet report for
1921, showing income figures unchanged
from the tentative account announced
two weeks ago. The SYSTEMS 1921 OPP
Grating results drew this comment from
E. w. Beatty, president Of the COM
pany:
The gross earnings were less than
those OF 1920 by s23.619.494. but the
net earnings increased by S1.04s, 695.
The large decrease in the gross earnings
is attributed to the general business de-
preston which set in at the end or
1920. and continued practically without
interruption during the fiscal year under
review, TO the decrease in passenger
fares in January and July and In freight
rates in December. and 10 a partial crop
failure in some portions OF western
Canada in areas served by your lines OF
railway.
"Of the expenses OF the year. 1854
per cent. was disbursed on account OF
labor $500 per cent for material and
miscellaneous supplies. 1851 per cent.
for fuel and other locomotive supplies.
and $40 per cent. for taxes, The ball
ance, 1.24 per cent. was necessary to
meet loss and damage claims. BY the
exercise of the strictest economy and
the deferring of work which could be
postponed your officers We're able to re-
d.tee expenses to an amount In excess
OF the decrease in gross revenues. The
operating ratio compares most favor
ably with that Of other systems"
