RAILROADS TAKE IN MORE, BUT PAY OUT MORE

"The railroads have been handling
the greatest volume of business ever
known, and their average rate level is
higher than in the years Immediately
prior to our entry into the World
War;" says G. H. Markham, president,
Illinois Central System. Because of
the increased volume of business and
the higher level of rates, the amount
Of money taken in by the railroads is
Of course greater than in our pre-war
years. And yet the owners of the
railroads, the stockholders, are not SO
we'll off today as they were then"
The reason for this is that the in
crease in railway expenditures is
greater than the increase in railway
receipts. The amount of money taken
in by the Glass 1 railroads was 3d.
325,000,000 greater in 1924 than in
1916. But their payrolls were $780,
100000 greater; their locomotive fuel
cost $1S70O0,O00 more; their other
materials and supplies cost $580,000,-
900 more; their taxes were $183,000,-
900 greater
Including increases in other items
classified as operating expenses, the
total operating expenses and taxes of
the Glass l railroads were $2,391, O00,-
900 greater in 1924 than in 1916. This
means that, Notwithstanding improved
efficiency of operation, there was an
increase of $102.80 in operating ex-
penses and taxes for every increase
of $500 in operating revenues. AS a
result, the amount remaining after
payment of operating expenses and
taxes was $66,OO0,OOO less in 1924 than
in 1916.
Meanwhile, in the face of this de-
crease, the need for considerably
increased return had developed. Be-
tween 1916 and 1924 the Glass rail-
roads spent $4,4S9 1000, 000-much of
it borrowed-for the improvement and
extension of their properties. On this
added investment, it is Immediately
evident, not one cent was earned in
1924; in fact, as figures show, the re-
turn earned in 1924 on the basis of
the 1916 investment was actually $685.
100000 less than was earned in 1916.
The increased investment since 1916
has been of great and timely benefit
to the public. 1t has enabled the rail-
roads to expand their facilities to meet
the constantly increasing needs Of the
country and to render highly satisfac-
tory service. 1t has resulted in econ
omies of operation which have kept

Over Million Of U. S.
! Forest Funds Sent Here

Over one million dollars was re-
ceived by the Federal Government
from the National Forests of Oregon
and Washington during the year end
ing June 80, 1925. These receipts
accrued from sales of timber, grazing
fees, special permits and other mis-
cellaneous business. Under existing
laws rs per cent of all National For
est receipts are returned to the state
in which they accrue, for road and
school funds, and in addition 10 per
cent is made available for use by
the Forest Service for road and trail
work OF this more than one million
dollars collected, $675,11412 was re-
turned from Oregon's Ia National for
ests, so that states share of the fund
will amount to $168,778.53, due under
the rs per cent division, and an addi-
tional 10 per cent. for forest road and
trail fund which will amount to
$67,511.41. Washington was not served
quite so well, her eight national for
ests returning in rents and fees but
1896, 1888, the states division for
road and school funds being $685.
1913, and for forest roads and trails
$39, 519.S9. This is in addition to the
large direct appropriations made by
the government for forest road de-
velopment in both states.

Farm Population On
Decline During 1925

The farm population of the United
States decreased approximately 1872,
600 during 1924, according to esti
mates based on survey of $4,000 rep
resentative farms made recently by
the United States Department o.
Agriculture This is drop of 6 pei
cent during that year, the estimated
farm population on January 1, 1925
being 31,134,OO0 compared with 81,
$4,000 on January /, 1924. This esti
mate includes not only the agricul
tural workers. but all men, women
and children living on the farms on
that date.
The movement from farms to cities
towns and villages in 1924 is esti-
mated at 2,075,0O0; the movement to
farms was 100000 making net
movement from the farm population
of $4,000 persons, 90 per cent.
Births among the farm population dur
ing 1924 are estimated at 100000 and
deaths at 100000 leaving natural
increase Of $4,000 which reduced the
loss due to the cityward movement to
$4,000 or 6 per cent.
A similar estimate made in 1922
showed loss in farm population of
100000 as against $4,000 in 1924.
The gross movement from farms to
cities in 1922 was 100000 compared
to 2,O75,OOO in 1924, slight increase.
The gross movement back to the
farms in 1922 was $4,000 compared
to 100000 in 1924, a very decided in.
crease. The net movement from farms
to cities in 1922 was 100000 or $50
per cent and in 1924, $4,000 or 90
per cent
Two geographic divisions, the New
England and South Atlantic States,
showed a net increase in farm popu-
lation for the year 1924, of 8 per cent
and Q per cent, respectively. All
other divisions showed decreases the
Mountain States leading with a loss
of 2.8 per cent.
The decrease in farm population due
to the cityward movement, not taking
into account births or deaths, was
highest in the Mountain States 4.3
per cent, followed by the Pacific and
| West South Central States. In all
other divisions, except New England,
the percentage Of decrease due to the
cityward movement was equal to or
less than the average for the whole
United States, 90 per cent. New
England alone showed a gain OF 3
per cent, since more people moved
from cities to New England farms
than left farms for cities.
The movement from farms to cities
was found to be at the highest rate
in the Mountain State, 1873 per cent,
followed by the Pacific, New England,
Middle Atlantic, and East North Con
trail States In order. In the movement
to farms from cities, the Mountain
States again lead, with 9.5 per cent,
followed by the New England, Pacific,
Middle Atlantic, and East North Cen.

You think it good economy to in

the railroads as a whole going con-
Germs in the face of declining rates.
This increased investment, however,
has not yet begun to earn return for
itself.
Moreover, since interest charges
come ahead of dividends and since
the return out of which both must be
paid has decreased since 1916, the
owners of the railroads, despite in.
creases in both volume of business
and level Of rates, are actually in a
less favorable position today than
they were before our entrance into
the war.
Those who provide the facilities for
transportation service must be al
lowed an equitable share in it's re-
wards. The future of our nation de-
mands that there be continued
improvement and extension of rail
way facilities as business grows, and
the money for this expansion must
come, even more largely in the future
than in the past, from those who are
willing to accept the risks Of owner
ship. This means that the earning
power of the railroads must be safe
guarded. There is no other solution.

An Unfinished Editorial

A fifty-bushel yield of corn will re
turn $40 an acre at 80 cents bushel
At 80 cents a bushel the 50-busheI
yield sells for $45. The extra dime o
bushel means So more an acre.
Getting the extra dime, though, is
difficult
Without the extra dime 60-bushe
yield at 80 cents bushel will return
$48. Ten bushels more an acre bring
more cash than 10 cents more 6

AS individual farmers we haven
yet found a reliable way to get the
